Arrinera finalizes its Hussarya supercar design

A 650-hp coupe it calls the Hussarya. Arrinera's first supercar prototype received a lot of flak for styling so reminiscent of a Lamborghini that the company was accused of making a straight-out replica. Lamborghini design with some Ferrari and McLaren cues to create the Hussarya. Arrinera sticks closely to an all-too familiar start-up supercar formula: GM-sourced 6.2-liter V8 engine, 3.2-second 0-62 mph (100 km/h) time and 211 mph (340 km/h) top speed. With the help of a manual Graziano gearbox, the 650-hp V8 has the cushy job of pushing around Noble's high-strength steel chassis decorated in optional carbon/Kevlar bodywork. The package weighs 2,866 lb (1,300 kg), according to the spec sheet Arrinera has published. Other numbers listed on that sheet include an 8.9-second 0-124 mph (200 km/h), 14.3-second 0-124-0 mph and 11-second quarter mile.

The Hussarya measures 175.2 x 80.9 x 46.8-in (4,450 x 2,056 x 1,190 mm) and stretches over a 106-in (2,695-mm) wheelbase. It rolls on 19-in light alloy wheels with 255/35 R19 front tires and 335/30 R19 rear tires.

Inside, Arrinera promises a high-end leather and composite cabin with a high level of standard amenities (for a supercar). The Hussarya will come out of the factory sporting an audio system with CD/MP3 player and Bluetooth connectivity, power windows, air conditioning and remote control locks. Other listed standard features include a back-up camera, parking sensors and daytime running lamps. The available thermal imaging camera with LCD will monitor the road ahead for people and animals. Add-on packages will include several carbon fiber kits and a 700-hp Power Package with larger brakes.

Arrinera plans to ready the Hussarya by the end of this year. It is working on an exclusive color palette with PPG Industries.
