Making its debut at the LA Auto Show, the Aria’s new supercar will be offered in two models: the FE with a naturally-aspirated 6.2-liter V8 engine, and the FXE. The latter boasts a 720 hp V8 paired with two axial-flux induction electric motors producing 540 hp, for a combined output of 1,150 hp and 1,316 lb-ft of torque, mated to a seven- or eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. A 10 kWh lithium-ion battery pack is also included. Continue reading for more pictures and information.
“Aria claims the FXE will accelerate to 60 mph (96 km/h) in a brisk 2.7 seconds and reach a 210 mph top speed. Beyond the powertrain, the vehicle will use a carbon fiber monocoque, a host of carbon body panels, and numerous 3D-printed titanium components. Aria intends on selling no more than 400 examples of the FE and FXE and wants to commence deliveries in late 2019. Prices are tipped to start at over $1 million,” reports Car Scoops.
