Italian Mazzanti Automobili has added a new member to its Evantra family. We are introduced to the Mazzanti Evantra Pura, a supercar of the old stamp.
Mazzanti Automobili is a small Italian manufacturer that showed the first images of what would eventually become the Evantra ten years ago. The Evantra is currently available as a 751 hp 771 and as a whopping 1,000 hp Millecavalli. These two flavors are being given a new version in the form of the Evantra Pura.
Where the deranged Evantra Millecavalli has a 7.4 large V8 behind the front seats, the Pura gets a 6.2 liter, just like the 771, and just like the 7.4 from General Motors. In the Pura, the double-blown V8 delivers 761 hp and 910 Nm, making it slightly less powerful than the 771. Rap ​​is in any case. The Evantra Pura sprints to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and has a top speed of over 360 km/h. Striking is the transmission of the Pura, which is not a sequential seven-speed gearbox as in its brothers, but a manual gearbox with the same amount of resistance.
Mazzanti Evantra Pura
The Pura should in fact be seen as a more stripped-down and ‘no-nonsense’ version of the Evantra. With a car weight of 1,290 kilos, it is 60 kilos lighter than the 771. Although the name ‘Pura’ may suggest otherwise, the interior of the new Evantra can be adjusted down to the smallest details.
The price of all that beauty? It is on request and that probably says enough.
