Specifications
The Roadyacht GTS is equipped with a V8 engine derived from the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 that produces 670 hp (500 kW; 679 PS) and 730 N⋅m (538 lb⋅ft) of torque. This allows for acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 3.4 seconds, with a top speed of 330 km/h (205 mph). Despite the ballast embarked to compensate for some features of the vehicle (such as the absence of the fixed roof and the presence of four doors), the Roadster GTS had a total weight of 1,280 kg (2,822 lb). The retractable roof, activated by an electric control, was made of glass panels reinforced with carbon fiber and had a multi-panel telescopic configuration that allowed it to close thanks to the overlapping of the panels in the boot.[1]
