Aspark and Manifattura Automobili Torino achieve historic milestone as production intent prototype SP600 Hypercar becomes World’s Fastest Electric Hypercar by hitting 438.7kph
Aspark is not new to set the record of what is achievable so high: after having conceived and commissioned the Aspark Owl, the fastest accelerating electric Hypercar in the world, the Japanese company turned once more to Manifattura Automobili Torino for the development and manufacturing of a second outlandish project: a Hypercar able to break the world top speed record for EVs.
Finally, on the 8th of June, during the second attempt of the day, conducted flawlessly by professional driver and Nurburgring 24h winner Marc Basseng, the car was able to hit a top speed of 438.7kph, measured using the certified Racelogic V-Box, a high-precision GPS-based measurement device provided by the ATP proving ground in Papenburg. In previous attempts and tests, the car was able to pass consistently the 420kph speed mark, reaching first 420.
Masanori Yoshida, Aspark CEO, statement: “It has been about 10 years since we started making the OWL Hypercar. We aimed for the world’s Fastest Acceleration car, and then attempted and achieved the top speed world record today. This technical capability inspires all involved to personal excellence and to challenge and grow in leaps and bounds into the future.”
