(from Arash Press
Release) THE AF-10: Unique Features:AF10 features an
advanced road car aerodynamic package. Powertrain The 7 litre GM unit has
been used for the AF10. Final power output is estimated at 550bhp at
6000rpm. The unit has been specifically chosen due to excellent
supply of parts and backup from GM Uk and its reliable emission
compliant power delivery. Servicing is minimal due to the unstressed
nature of the engine as well as ease of installation into the AF-10
chassis. Chassis Full carbon and steel frame chassis with steel front and rear crash structures and cradles. The chassis has been designed with kpi angles to achieve sports car feel but supercar presence. All wishbones are double format and have steel tubular structures. All uprights are internally designed to fit AP racing 6 pot carbon ceramic discs and callipers. Body All carbon fibre with honeycomb and nomex sandwiches have been used to achieve weight reductions and built in stiffness advantages. All bodywork is hand laid up and cured at the Arash Cars facility in Cambridge. Strict quality control is carried out without the need for x-ray inspection. Manufacturing All manufacturing of main components will be carried out in Sawston due to such low volumes of cars being released to the market. An estimated 25 cars will be manufactured per year with a small number being delivered to the US market in LHD format. Outsourcing for machining and main OE parts will still be maintained, however a need to manufacture chassis and body components are essential to achieve control and quality control. Specifications
