Zolfe Orange (original) (raw)

The Zolfe Orange is a car announced at the Autosport show in January 2006 built by in Redditch, Worcestershire, United Kingdom. The car has a spaceframe chassis and composite body, with rear-drive. As shown originally the car had a Suzuki motor cycle engine but it was decided to lengthen the wheelbase for greater practicality and production cars have either a Mazda engine or a 2.3-litre Ford Duratec engine in various states of tune up to 300 bhp. The transmission is based on that from a Mazda MX5. A production rate of 30 cars a year is hoped for. A special feature of the car is its very low weight of under 700 kg.
