Originally equipped with a formidable 6.2 L V8 engine boasting 630 hp, the VISION SZR is gearing up for an upgrade with a 6.0 liter V12 roaring to an impressive 700 hp. Whether you prefer the raw thrill of a six-speed manual or the refined performance of an electronically-controlled dual-clutch automatic, the VISION SZR promises an exhilarating ride. Weighing in at approximately 1,270 kg, thanks to its aluminum chassis and carbon fiber body, this powerhouse can go from 0 to 100 km/h in less than three seconds.
