Ermini set to present Seiottosei barchetta in Geneva

07:20AM - 16.02.'14

News Source: autoblog.com

 

Ermini is a sports-car maker out of Florence, Italy that the world hasn't heard much from for half a century, until news of a possible Barchetta Sport roadster cropped up last year. Then, we'd speculated that the Guilio Cappellini-penned car might eventually hit the road with a small-displacement, high-output powerplant, and a very low curb weight.

It seems that Ermini is poised to make good on its promises at this year's Geneva Motor Show with a concept car called Seiottosei. What's more, we now have some specs to go with one teaser image (above) of the upcoming car.

Roughly according to plan, the Seiottosei will use a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from Renault (hilariously dubbed "Renault F4RT RS"), making roughly 315 horsepower (320 cv) to push around the light, 1,512-pound aluminum and carbon bodywork. That combination will be good for a theoretical top speed of 168 miles per hour (limited, according to Ermini) and a 0-62 mile-per-hour run of less than 3.5 seconds.

Find a bit more technical information, and a lot of marketing department color, expect full coverage of the car when we hit Geneva in March, as well.
