The Korres P4 is a Greek sports car designed by Korres Engineering.[1] Korres has a goal of producing and selling 100 models in North America, the Middle East and Greece.

Specifications and performance

Engine

The Korres is powered by a 7.0 liter LS7 V8 Corvette engine[2] that produces 505hp and is capable of reaching 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds with a maximum speed of 300 km/h (190 mph).[1]

Transmission

The gearbox is made specifically for the car and features a 6-speed manual transmission (2.538, 1.611, 1.208, 0.933, 0.777, 0.560) with 3 transfer case ratios, normal (1:1 ratio), sports (1.62:1 ratio) and trial (5.95:1 ratio). The P4 has a theoretical top speed of over 300 km/h (190 mph).[3]

Handling

The car's suspension is made by Korres Engineering. The P4 features an adjustable ride height suspension system that can raise the car's ride height by 400mm to help it negotiate rocks and other obstacles. Generally, a low ride height means sharp steering control.[4][5]

Performance

The Korres has a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph) and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.8 seconds. P4 has a GVWR weight of 1,700 kg (3,700 lb).
