The Ren RS is a single-seat variant of last year's Ren supercar. The RS can be configured with either four or six electric motors. The latter configuration includes two motors in the front and four in the rear with a system output of 1305 hp, which accelerates the car from zero to 100 km/h in just three seconds and a top speed of 330 km/h.
Range of 1170 kilometers with 80 liters of diesel
The patented range-extension system uses a microturbine to drive a generator that quickly recharges the 28-kWh high-performance battery pack. This allows 1170 kilometers of range to be generated from 80 liters of diesel for the e-drive. The space-inspired design with fighter jet-style cover flap is by Fabrizio and Giorgetto Giugiaro.
