The Ultima RS is the new top model from the British automaker known as the Ultima GTR. It debuted at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, but interested buyers can now pre-order on the company’s website.
The design of the Ultima RS is inspired by the Group C enduro era of the 1980s and 1990s, including notable machines such as the Porsche 956 and Jaguar XJR-12. The look of the new model highlights the increased downforce and improved airflow compared to the company’s earlier models. To achieve this, components such as a chassis-mounted front splitter, vortex generators, a large rear diffuser and a gooseneck rear wing are used.
Customers have a variety of power options – they all use a GM V8 engine. The base model is a 6.2-liter V8 LT1 with 480 hp. (358 kW). There’s also a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 LT4 with 650 hp. (485 kW). The RS, powered by the 6.2-litre supercharged V8 engine from the LT5, has 800 hp as standard. (597 kW), but Ultima offers up to 1200 hp. (895 kW) in factory settings.
The only transmission available is a six-speed manual, and the Ultima RS FAQ makes it clear that an automatic will never be on the options list. “The Ultima RS is a true driving car and as such is only available with a six-speed manual transmission and clutch pedal,” the company wrote.
The RS is a track-focused machine, but the Ultima offers options to make it more comfortable on the road, including air conditioning, navigation, a reversing camera, parking sensors, and lumbar-support seats upholstered in leather or Alcantara. LED headlights with daytime running lights are also available.
The RS is available in left or right hand drive and the Ultima ships worldwide. They are not legal anywhere, but can be driven on the streets of some countries.
Welcome to the new Ultima RS. The fastest, most versatile, stylish and aerodynamic Ultima yet. Ultima Sports Ltd has taken the Ultima heritage to the top with the launch of the new Ultima RS. The new flagship model is a powerful supercar offering the fastest, most refined, stylish and most advanced performance package to date. Ultima RS is the pinnacle of Ultima’s 35 year success story and the ultimate expression of Ultima’s core DNA. The Ultima RS is the most radical and comprehensive facelift Ultima road supercar has ever produced. Functional at its best, with an aggressive fit With its muscular and timeless Le Mans-inspired Group C lines and extensive use of carbon fiber, the new Ultima RS was designed with one goal in mind: performance. From well-crafted roof air intakes, carbon fiber side splitters and sculpted front splitters (all with intelligent integrated vortex generators) to a new full-length swan-neck carbon fiber rear spoiler, each has been designed to lighten weight. Their shapes are as functional as they are stunning, and after extensive testing in a full-scale MIRA wind tunnel, each one is perfected. Unfiltered and instinctive. At its core, you can find the latest direct injection powerplant options compatible with the Chevrolet V8 LT Euro 6 – from the LT1 with a capacity of 480 hp. Finally, the new supercharged LT5 powerplant can be further tuned for supercar output up to a whopping 1,200 horsepower. It is important to note that the chassis and controls interact with the driver so vividly that you can actually unleash the incredible performance potential.
Let me introduce you to the most aerodynamic, fastest and most versatile Ultima ever made. Fastest Ultima Ever Design-wise, the Ultima RS focused on increasing downforce and aerodynamics, as well as improving cooling and airflow. This can be seen in the striking styling and extensive new aerodynamic elements such as an integrated chassis-mounted front splitter, front dive plane, quad wheel arch vents, vortex generators, NACA air vents, aggressive side air intakes and a large rear diffuser. Additional cooling of the power unit and brakes is achieved through additional air channels in the bow, rear fenders and roof. The front headlining design minimizes frontal area and also provides a lower drag coefficient while controlling airflow over the leading edge and maintaining the boundary layer on most surfaces. All of these factors contribute to the Ultima RS’s unparalleled balance of handling and refinement. Overall downforce and the ability to shift aerodynamic balance front and rear are the guiding principles. These elements create the best dynamic performance to create the ideal vehicle for the driver. The RS features a custom Ultima design and signature 19-inch lightweight forged wheels front and rear to match the latest high-performance Michelin tires. The wheels are adapted to our application without compromise. New oversized 362mm grooved AP brake discs and redesigned 6-cylinder brake calipers, specially designed for the new RS model specifications of the world famous AP race car, improve braking performance and make the Ultima RS the fastest deceleration in today’s conditions. once one of the supercars. Deceleration time from 100 mph to zero is an amazing 3.3 seconds. Light. For 35 years, this has been one of Ultima’s most important core values. Many of the RS’s new optional aerodynamic elements are made from breathtakingly lightweight carbon fiber to minimize weight and strength. The overall performance of the new Ultima RS surpasses all previous world-class results and performance statistics set by previous generation Ultima vehicles. In illustrious tradition, the Ultima RS can outperform any other road supercar on the planet. With the powerful Ultima RS, breaking all the world speed records for production road cars is not an impossible dream.
