Weber Supercar

 »  »  »

The world premiere of our super sportscar takes place from 19-22 April 2007 at the Topmarques in Monaco. The whole exhibition is subordinate to the patronage of the prince Albert of Monaco.

We ask you for understanding that we show you on this website just a few details of our super sportscar. We will present you more after the premiere in Monaco.

Aerodynamics
The aerodynamic tuning is probably the most important thing from a super sportscar. Our technicians have spent a long time with the optimism. Over a period of nine months new models were designed again and again. The perfect result

can be showed! Reaching the finale speed of over 400 km/h is guaranteed. Important in this case are those contact pressure in the front and in the rear, so that the vehicle remains stable at the street. The engine and transmission interpretation were determined due to these dates. We have a power reserve of 15%, in order to reach the final speed.

Construction
All components of our car are self-developments and were designed with the most modern CAD

programs. All parts were constructed with the FEM (fenite elements computation of the firmness of the parts).

Body
Carbon, the material from which dreams are made of
- seven times stiffer than steel
- six times lighter than steel
- used in air and space travel, as well as in racing
- Weber Sportcars manufactures the complete body from carbon (CFK)
- The complete door with window, inclusive window

lifter engine weighs only 5.5 kg! With a normal series car a sidedoor weighs between 30-40 kg
The tools for the carbon production are very complex and expensive. The manufactured carbon parts are more exactly than the example of sheet metals. This results very small gap dimensions, which again positively affected the CW-value.

Chassis
Our chassis consists of high-quality aluminum, as it is used otherwise only in air and space travel.

The tools for the aluminium profiles were manufactured by us. The advantage of this complex construction gave us a weight reduction of 32% opposite of a chrome molybdenum framework with same rigidity. Our complete chassis weighs only 65 kg. The whole structure was FEM computed and the torsional rigidity is also very high naturally. During a strain of 14 tons the chassis only bends 1°.

Engine
The engine speed/power diagram shows the almost constant progression of the torque. Above 3000 revs/min you still have full power! However, at this point we do not want to give away what the maximum power is.

Gearbox
Our sequential 6-speed gearbox is one of our biggest innovations. The emphasis during its development was on fast gear changes of 80 milliseconds and the delivery of extremely large torques. This gearbox is unique…

Performance Details

Body
Full Carbon body work
• seven times stiffer than steel
• six times lighter than steel
• used in air and space travel, as well as in racing
• Weber Sportcars manufactures the complete body from carbon (CFK)

Engine
Our 7.2l V8 supercharged mid mounted and inercooled engine is very unique. Dry sump and a coil for each zylinder like race engines. At this point we do not want to give away what the maximum power is.

Gearbox-Drive train
Our semi automated sequential 6-speed gearbox is one of our biggest innovations. The emphasis during its development was on fast gear changes of 80 milliseconds and the delivery of extremely large torques. This gearbox is unique…last but not least we spend our torque to 4 wheels with an intelligent torque management for best traction and a superiority acceleration. The entire power train as well as the differentials were designed by ourselves and are partly produced by us too.
