The Lotec Sirius is a remarkable supercar, with its roots and design dating back to the early 2000s. This model was created by German engineer and designer Kurt Lotterschmid, renowned for his work on high-performance vehicles. The Lotec Sirius was originally introduced in 2004 and embodies Lotterschmid's unique vision of combining high performance with outstanding engineering. As a limited production, it is particularly exclusive and rare.
The Lotec Sirius impresses with its technical specifications and performance. It features a 6.0-liter V12 engine producing 1,200 horsepower and reaching a top speed of over 400 km/h (248.5 mph). The engine, sourced from Mercedes-Benz, has been specially modified to achieve this remarkable performance. The vehicle is equipped with a sequential 6-speed gearbox, enabling precise and swift shifting. The body is made of a lightweight and robust carbon fiber composite, significantly reducing the overall weight of the car.
