Zenvo ST1 Prototype Crashes At Track Event

 

 Don’t be surprised if you’ve never heard of it.

The Zenvo ST1 is a Danish-built supercar. It is powered by a twin-charged (supercharged and turbocharged) 7.0L V-8 thundering out about 1,104hp and 1,050 lb ft of torque. A light weight chassis and carbon fiber panels help the curb weight to come in at little over 3000 pounds gives it an amazing power to weight ratio. Only 15 of the cars will be built at a price nearing $1 million and only to clients handpicked by the company.

So far, none have been built and the only one in existence, a prototype, has hit a snag. Like the prototype Bugatti Veyron, the Zenvo ST1 Prototype, has had an accident during an event called this one occurring in Jyllands Ringen, Denmark.

Apparently the driver, Troels Vollersten, spun out the million-dollar supercar and hit a wall. Luckily, the car slid a sand runoff area before he made contact, slowing the car down and minimizing damage.

The car was in fine working order after the track crew got the car dug out. The prototype will need a new coat of paint, but no panels seem to need replacement.
