Wiesmann Spyder 180° Turn

Presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 2011, this
concept Wiesmann Spyder proves the least radical

German craftsman Wiesmann is known for his work with a decidedly retro look. With its futuristic design, this concept Spyder may therefore surprise a fan of the brand.

A lightweight, strong engines of horsepower and torque in Nm: Wiesmann a "conventional" is already a sacred promise of driving pleasure. What to say, then, this study Spyder, presented in Geneva? More windshield, hood over, she is also a radical KTM X-Bow.
Except that it is not a question of four-cylinders. The engine is a naturally aspirated 4.0 V8 420 hp, from the BMW M3! With less than 1000 kg claimed, needless to say, the performances will uncap. 0 to 100 km / h is done in 4 seconds and the top speed would amount to 290 km / h.

The futuristic look of this slice tandem with
the usual retro style of the brand

Enticing. But for now, the Wiesmann Spyder is a study. The small German brand has no plans to produce it until 2012. On one condition, however: that visitors to the Geneva Motor Show and potential customers show him enough interest. This tandem uncompromising will have to accept its special look. Despite the small headlights and taillights, as well as the characteristic radiator grille, the design of the slice concept indeed radically with the habits of the brand, more customary neo-retro lines.

If she manages to accept his particular aesthetic, the Wiesmann Spyder could be mass-produced in 2012
