A Faster And Better Looking Improvement Of The Original Evantra

     Hello viewers. You may have seen an older article I did on the original Mazzanti Evantra. Well it turns out that Mazzanti might want to show that an obscure Italian company can build a car to compete with Sweden's Koenigsegg cars at the Nurburgring. The new car called the Mazzanti Evantra Millecavalli looks similar to its father except that certain areas such as the grille have been redesigned for improved aerodynamics. When I learned that one of my favorite and obscure Italian companies made an Evantra successor I just had to write about it. Let's see if Mazzanti made a good successor or a fail.

     The 2017 Faralli and Mazzanti Evantra Millecavalli is an Italian hypercar equipped with a 7.2 liter bi-turbo V-8 that is either Chevrolet sourced or made by Faralli and Mazzanti themselves that delivers 1,000 hp exactly, hence the name Millecavalli which means one thousand in Italian. Top speed of the Evantra Millecavalli is 250 mph. Naught to sixty takes 2.7 seconds. The engine is coupled to an unknown gearbox, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's exactly the same one as in the old Evantra.

     Not only has the engine been changed on the Evantra Millecavalli, but the exterior has changed as well in certain areas of the car. The lower bumper of the car has been given a larger diffuser, and race-inspired canards. The front hood now has three large vents as well as two downforce increasing elements in the design. The roof scoop from the original Evantra has been lengthened toward the windscreen and is wider and flatter.

     The sides of the Evantra Millecavalli have also seen some changes. The wheels are now multi-spoked and are both lighter and seem to be wrapped around track-ready tires. There are also flared wheel arches that makes one wonder if the rims are wider. The side vents are larger and the side skirts have been extended. Moving on to the rear of the car now.

     The Evantra Millecavalli now has a race-inspired rear wing for downforce aid. The rear fenders are larger and include additional vents towards the rear of the car. As opposed to the old Evantra, the Evantra Millecavalli has four rear exhausts as opposed to two. A race-spec diffuser also exists at the car's rear. The body extensions on the side of the car have also been removed for better aerodynamics. Many automobile journalists beleive the Millecavalli will only be offered in carbon this time.

     Not much is known about the interior of the Millecavalli. Some expect the speedometer to be directly in front of the driver this time as opposed to being in the center of the driver's area.

     As for the cost of an Evantra Millecavalli, it is likely to cost $1.2 million. The main competition will likely come from the Pagani Huayra BC, a more track-ready version of the Huayra.

     I really hope this car gets more love than hate since the original Evantra got a lot of hate from people who saw it.
