The super sports car market is increasingly competitive. The newest member of this segment comes from the new Slovenia automotive manufacturer, the Shayton Automobile and takes its inspiration from the rushing elements of nature which is called Equilibrium.
"Shayton is a new God, the God of speed and performance. Faster than wind, more powerful than storm and as beautiful as if it was shaped by supernatural forces themselves." Shayton actually means "falcon" in Sioux Indian, so we’re guessing that their first supercar - the Equilibrium - is set to take on the prey that is the other more successful supercars of Europe.

The Shayton Equilibrium looks the part of a predator with its aggressive lines and muscular stance. Its power is also something to be reckoned with as the Equilibrium is ready to attack with a V12 engine that shoots out 1,084 hp and a peak torque of 930 Nm at 5,000 rpm. The supercar can go from 0-60 mph (96.5 kph) sprint time of 2.9 seconds and reach a top speed of 250 mph (402 kph).

With only 1,200 kg, the Equilibrium will deliver a power-to-weight ratio of 1.42 kg/hp. Thanks to the use of titanium and carbon in the construction of the chassis, which is then dressed up with muscular and aggressive lines that are cut by large side intakes. The shape of the body provides an elegantly macho look to the supercar while allowing for low air resistance. Carbon titanium wheels complete the look of this Slovenian supercar.

The interior is dominated by a driver focused cockpit architecture which means that everything is set up to ensure a driver/owner ultimate driving experience when the Shayton Equilibrium is pushed to its limits.
