Inspired by the Alfa Romeo Carabo and adopting newest and most advanced aerospace materials in manufacturing including lightweight carbon fiber and Kevlar, the Vector W8 is the result of the dreams of Gerald Wiegert, company founder and chief designer of the Vector Aeromotive Corporation.
With a 6.0L Rodeck twin-turbocharged V8 engine able to reach 1.200 bhp during dyno testing at the factory, Vector claimed the W8 could reach a top speed of 242 mph (389 km/h).
