If you're unfamiliar with Piëch, we will enlighten you. Anton Piëch, who is the great-grandson-in-law of Ferdinand Porsche and the son of the late VW Chairman Ferdinand Piëch, owns the company. At this point, Anton unveiled his revolutionary GT idea. But right now, it's just a clay model.
Even production isn't guaranteed. The 2+2 coupe is still aiming for more than 1,000 hp and 811 lb-ft of torque. Two electric motors, each generating 503 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque, are responsible for this tremendous power.
According to Car Magazine, Pich claims that his car can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in 2.6 seconds, reach a top speed of 187 mph, and have a WLTP range of 312 miles. Rumor also suggests that a pair of two-speed gearboxes house its electric motors. Improving driver engagement and excitement is one of the goals of the design decision.
Anton Pioch even hinted at the fact that "drivers and their emotions get somewhat left behind" when driving an electric car. According to Car Magazine, Pich claims that his car can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in 2.6 seconds, reach a top speed of 187 mph, and have a WLTP range of 312 miles. The GT is 188.2 inches in length, 78.7 inches wide, and 53.1 inches tall in this configuration.
It supports a wheelbase of 109.4 inches. In 2028, Piëch Automotive plans to start producing 2,000 units. Multimatic of Canada, which also made the Ford GT, is a potential partner in this endeavor. At the current exchange rate, the brand is aiming to sell the car for approximately $215,000, which is equivalent to around 200,000 euros.
