Heritage, style, performance and emissions free – the AC Cobra Series 4–electric is an AC Superblower updated for the new world, and the latest model in the redux of an iconic marque.
The true inspiration for the exciting new AC Cobra Series 4–electric is none other than the much-loved AC Cobra 378 Superblower MkIV, the launch of which was a famous steppingstone on AC’s road to recovery and revival back in the late 1990s. This new, emissions-free supercar will feature one of strongest specification/performance combinations of any AC model’s heritage, with an equally impressive on-the-road speed.
“The march of the outstandingly efficient electric AC Cobras is gathering pace now”, said Alan Lubinsky, the man whose vision, drive and energy have sustained AC Cars for almost a quarter of a Century.
AC has introduced a power system fit for the future, thanks to the services of its new Derby-based technical partner Falcon Electric. A hard-core technology company, it has the passion and innovation to make electric vehicles exciting.
The vital statistics for this remarkable car tell its story: 460 kw power, 1,000 NM torque, 0-62 mph in just 3.8 seconds, and a gross weight of less than 1,190 kg. Delivering 200 miles range, thanks to a 54 kwh battery pack, the car’s inherent lightweight design and construction provide its potential.
Alan Lubinsky: “Eliminating excess weight brings with it positive benefits for the car’s owner. Lower overall weight reduces energy consumption, allowing the batteries to deliver a longer range and the ability to drive the car to AC’s traditional high standards for speed and acceleration, which the marque has achieved over many years”.
The retail selling price for the AC Cobra Series 4–electric will be £168,000, plus any on the road charges.
Reservations for production cars are now being taken on the AC Cars website, info@accars.eu with the first customer deliveries expected in summer of 2021.
