The Rodin FZERO makes its debut at the brand's test track in New Zealand

Two years ago, a new supercar was unveiled that wanted to reign on circuits around the world, so that those who could afford its price would enjoy an unmatched experience on the track. Over the last few months, work has continued on the car and, at last, it has been able to be seen in action running around the brand’s own test track, located in New Zealand.

This project comes from David Dicker, an Australian millionaire who wanted to see this project through and offer a car with a power output greater than that of a Formula 1 single-seater, with less weight, but with all the excitement that one of those vehicles offers. He is, precisely, the one who has taken charge of carrying out this definitive test and getting behind the wheel of the car.

This test has served to fine-tune the systems, so it is not the definitive test, but one that will only serve to begin making adjustments before closing the model’s development process. Apparently, the car has passed the test successfully and, according to the company’s CEO, it will now move on to the next development phase.

The engine used by the Rodin FZERO is a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V10 block, which delivers an impressive output of 1,026 CV, combined with aerodynamics that allow it to deliver excellent track performance. At least, on paper. Another area where careful work has been done is weight. The Rodin FZERO has a weight of 698 kg, which is around 100 kg less than Formula 1 single-seaters.

The top speed this supercar is capable of reaching is 360 km/h, so the experience will be as striking as promised. However, there seems to be no rush to complete the testing process and put the car into production. The company insists that there are still quite a few things to review before development is concluded and the car becomes a reality.

That said, although the final price has not yet been made public, we already know that it will be a plaything for very few people, those who can afford it.
