Spyker does not how they cannot part with the idea of producing a personal sports SUV. The rather interesting concept of D8 Peking-to-Paris was demonstrated 7 years ago, and since then the company has repeatedly promoted to “set pepper” Porsche Cayenne. And so, a new date is voiced – 2016.
The emergence of this kind of statements within the framework of the Geneva Automatic Exhibition is understandable: at the Motor Showalon, the Dutch demonstrated the prototype of the sports car, which in the near future will take the place of the mass model of the company, and accordingly will take part of the buyers and Porsche. They plan to revive the past popularity of the Spyker models with the help of an all -wheel drive, the concept of which has recently turned seven years old.
Spyker representatives promise that already in 2014 they will show a new version of the Peking-to-Paris concept, which will allow a complete picture of the conveyor crossover. It is planned that the novelty will preserve the previous extravagance, which, as you know, was always present by Spyker supercars. But nothing is known about the technical side. By the way, some time ago, the prototype of the crossover had a specification D8, while the D12 index arose because it was planned to install a 12-cylinder engine with an output of 500 liters on the model.With. A little later, the engineers changed their minds and decided to stop at the V8 engine with a special mechanical supercharger.
To create a serial crossover, the Dutch will need at least 2-3 years, and the Spyker leadership is determined and most likely, the development is all the same. By the way, it will return to the thoughts of designing the company crossover by the rather serious investments of the Chinese company Youngman, which are rumored to exceed 10 million. dollars.
The result of all the efforts of the company, to increase the model range, should be a rapid increase in sales level. So, according to the plans, three models of Spyker: Peking-to-Paris, Venator and C8 Aileron should provide an annual sale at 2.5 thousand. units.
