Korres P4

The Korr

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

Engine
The Korres is powered by a 7.0 liter LS7 V8 Corvette engine that produces 505hp and is capable of reaching 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds with a maximum speed of 300 km/h.

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.

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.

Performance
The Korres has a top speed of 300 km/h and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds. P4 has a GVWR weight of 1700 kg.

Features

 * Front-to-back diagonal wheel interconnection provides both anti-roll and anti-pitch.
 * Cockpit adjustable ride height control.
 * Adjustable overall suspension stiffness when altering vehicle ride height (low=stiff, high=soft).
 * Unmatched off-road capabilities (for a vehicle with 4 regular-sized wheels).
 * Reliable and robust mechanical interconnection of wheels through push-rods, levers and torsion bars without the use of electronics or hydro-pneumatic systems.
 * Excellent ability to absorb bumps, offer a very smooth ride, and have great control over extremely uneven surfaces.
 * Precise wheel tracking on extremely rough and uneven terrain.
 * Increased grip on slippery or loose surfaces.
 * Extremely high level of axle articulation (suspension flex, warp).
 * Little roll when cornering (high roll stiffness).
 * True sports car handling when fully lowered.
 * Sturdy vehicle dynamics.
 * Ultra-compact, fully synchronized, manual 6-speed gearbox.
 * 3 different transfer case ratios, cruise (direct 1:1 ratio), sport (1.62:1 ratio) and trial (5.95:1 ratio).
 * Crawl ratio of 56:1.
 * Center differential with selectable all-wheel-drive (AWD) and 4WD (locked center differential).
 * Selectable rear-wheel drive (RWD).

On a dynamometer and in AWD, driveline losses were measured at 11%.
