World premiere at Geneva Motor Show from 5 to 15 March 2009 GUMPERT Sportwagenmanufaktur GmbH will be presenting an even faster apollo speed.
GUMPERT Sportwagenmanufaktur GmbH will be presenting the apollo speed at the 79th Geneva Motor Show. The racer made in Germany has earned his name, and rightly so. For any speed limit is pointless! Whereas optimum performance for racetracks, lateral acceleration and grip in all situations are the focus of apollo, apollo sport and apollo race, the apollo speed is aimed at an exclusive high speed clientele. Its domain is the mastery of highest speeds. Thanks to polished aerodynamics the drive side values of the speed are far above those of the competition.
Form follows Function
The appearance of apollo speed is now even more classy and aggressive. His striking two tone paint emphasises the racers compact appearance, at 1,105mm being lower that his brothers at 1,114mm.
A good look from the front reveals the changed design around the wheel arches. A low restrict induction system rounds off the snappy appearance and provides fresh air to the engine. Further modifications have been made to the rear end of this super sports car: The redesigned tail lights concisely show where the apollo is headed to, before it vanishes from the sight of its pursuer. The two-seater also has a small adjustable spoiler to lend it the required drive side for its
intoxicating speed.
With a fully enclosed CAS underbody (carbon / aluminium sandwich) and wheel caps (fixed at the front and rotating at the back) the speed takes Formula 1 to the road and is just asking for a challenge to a sprint.
The powerful 8 cylinder Biturbo of apollo speed provides an optional 650 / 700 / 800 HP and a torque of
850 / 875 / 900 Nm. His performance is top class: The car can go from standing still to 100 km/h in 3.0 seconds.
A speed of 200 km/h is reached in just 8.9 seconds. His maximum speed is over 360 km/h. (Depending on equipment, country-related specifications, gear ratio and engine power) The racer impresses by its sportive, elegantly equipped interior.
It is available with either leather or Alcantara, and provides a whole panoply of details, such as air conditioning and a DVD moniceiver. The removable steering wheel makes it easy to get in. Embedded in the monocoque and held in by 4 point seat belts, the driver becomes one with the apollo. An intense bond!
Get to know the new, extroverted super sports car by GUMPERT.
We look forward to welcoming you to our press conference at our booth 2045 at 11am on 4 March 2009. GUMPERT Sportwagenmanufaktur GmbH will be showcasing its super sports cars at the Geneva Motor Show for the fourth time.

Gumpert will present an even faster Apollo Speed at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show. Because of the polished aerodynamics, the driver side values of the speed are far above those of the competition. A good look from the front reveals the changed design around the wheel arches. Further modifications have been made to the rear end of this super sports car. The two-seat car also has a small adjustable spoiler to lend it the required drive side for its intoxicating speed. Under the hood it has an 8-cylinder Bi-turbo that is capable of developing 650 / 700 / 800 horsepower and 850 / 875 / 900 Nm of torque. This enables the model to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.0 seconds and to 200 km/h in 8.9 seconds.
