Connaught Motor Co. decided to build the first green, high performance hybrid sport coupe in the world at a new plant in Wales. The production of the new car, the Connaught Type D will start this year and the first model will get to their owners in early 2008. The first model, the Connaught Type D GT Syracuse, will be built as a limited edition with a V10 twin-liter supercharged engine that is capable of delivering 300 horsepower. The Syracuse will be followed by the hybrid version, the Type D V10 sports coupe that will be powered by a V10 hybrid gasoline/electric engine that will deliver 150 mph and that will accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 6.2 seconds. It will be the first truly high performance hybrid sports coupe in the world that will deliver a 30% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to vehicles in its class.

Connaught Motor Co. developed the Type-D GT, a hand-crafted 2+2 sports coupe that offers best in class performance with a superb ride and handling balance. The result is the most versatile sports coupe in the world that can be enjoyed on the racing circuit or taking the children to school. Connaught celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Syracuse victory with the introduction of a high performance Type-D Syracuse Edition. The carmaker will only build only 100 units. The model is powered by a 2.0-liter V10 engine that is capable of delivering 300 BHP. It is capable of delivering 170 mph and apparently it will be available in 2006. This model will be the first car available in the Type-D range. Because the demand is high, a 20% reservation fee would be required to secure your chosen chassis number.
