THE 2015 VENCER SARTHE

Vencer is proud to present the production version of the Vencer Sarthe. After a period of thoroughly testing and validation with pre-production engineering prototypes, the production version of the Sarthe for 2015 is now ready. In a new manufacturing facility the company is building the first customer cars that will have some key upgrades including; perfected exterior features, an advanced interior design as well as a brand new engine.

Pre-production prototype

Last year a preproduction prototype of the Vencer Sarthe was revealed by Prince Albert II of Monaco at Top Marques exhibition in Monaco. Meanwhile Vencer has gone through a period of thoroughly testing with their last (red) pre-production car to validate all new technology for the production model of the Vencer Sarthe. With over 100 changes and modifications made on the production model, the Vencer Sarthe MY2015 is the result of years of extensive development by a dedicated and passionate team. This vision has led to collaboration with high-end automotive suppliers and freelance experts willing to go the extra mile to develop a unique car with true character and analogue feel. By following this trajectory Vencer has achieved to manufacture a distinctive, light and pure drivers car, with a clear focus on road-use. The Sarthe is an exceptional supercar that involves all your senses of what nowadays is becoming increasingly rare.

Vencer Sarthe MY2015 new exterior features

The production version of the Vencer Sarthe looks even more striking and powerful than before. The Vencer Sarthe is named after the circuit “la Sarthe” and the details incorporated into the car are a subtle tribute to the sports cars from the ’80s Le Mans era. The bodywork of the Sarthe is a tight wrapping of the raw power that lies beneath, expressed in smooth lines and profoundly sculpted flanks. The fluent shape of the car allows the lines to run cleanly from the short bonnet to conclude in a typical and aerodynamic long “Kamm” tail. Low, purposeful and sleek, the Sarthe talks performance and agility.

The MY2015 production model has some notable new exterior design features including a new quarter glass design, open air-flow C-pillars, a new engine cover, aerodynamic front splitters and an automatic rear spoiler. The new quarter glass design in clear coat carbon with open C-pillars increase the aerodynamic flow and together with the automatic rear spoiler they provide additional down force on the rear axle. A new engine cover design and larger side air inlets have been integrated to ensure a greater airflow and cooling to the new engine.

An new lightweight interior focused on the essentials

A completely new interior design brings to life an extraordinary and refined feel, with a clear and clean minimalist focus on only driving essentials. The typical wide door sills, close-fitting cockpit and central driving position of the Sarthe together with a short nose design, complemented by a long windscreen with direct and unrestricted view on the tarmac, are providing an impressive driving experience that lets the driver become one with the open road. To keep all driving distractions to a minimum, Vencer has developed its own Central Information System. The Vencer CIS system is a convenient and concise multitasking digital display that provides all critical information one may need at a glance.

All interior panels are produced in-house out of carbon fibre to further save weight. A two-tone leather interior with Alcantara inserts comes as standard and is available in virtually unlimited colour combinations. Also a wide variety of materials can be selected to customize your car, with many bespoke options to make each Sarthe truly individual.

New Vencer 6.3L V63SC engine

A new masterpiece forms an integral part of the Vencer philosophy relating to the commitment to sheer driving pleasure. The Vencer 6.3L V63SC engine is a new development for the MY 2015 model. This powerful eight-cylinder unit is composed of the best high-end OEM components available. Inspired by the ’80s Le Mans era, Vencer has incorporated a number of measures that have resulted in a powerhouse with impressive character. The engine stands out for its sublime power delivery, a deliberate broad power range and raw mechanical feel. The 6.3L V8 with supercharger boasts 622BHP (457kW) at 6500 rpm, and 838 Nm (618 lb-ft) of torque at 4000 rpm. Vencer has chosen to add a supercharger not only for increased power output, but also for immediate throttle response and impressive torque figures (650 Nm starting at 1500 rpm), adding to the driveability and agility of the car.

Furthermore, the engine is mounted deep into the chassis to ensure a lower centre of gravity and high lateral acceleration. As a result, the pounding heart of the Vencer Sarthe delivers exceptional performance that is unique in its segment. The V63SC V8 engine is now standard for the Vencer Sarthe, whereas the prototype-spec V8 has been discontinued.

Impressive driving experience

A modern interpretation of the lines of iconic ’80s race cars together with genuine engineering, purposeful minimalist design and durable carbon fibre lightweight construction are delivering an optimum blend of a neo-retro and mechanical feel with modern day impressive performance. The Vencer Sarthe is a sophisticated machine, which unpretentiously delivers effortless performance. In the quest for a true analogue and mechanical feel Vencer has left out unnecessary computerized driving assistance, only leaving the true soul of the car. Genuine engineering solutions ensure an intrinsic balance that allows the driver to be at the centre of the involvement.

A lightweight chrome-molybdenum chassis with honeycomb structure and full carbon fibre bodywork forms the basis of the car, with an optimal (45%/55%) weight distribution. A sensational power delivery from the engine, a direct and undiluted hydraulic steering feel, a Torsen limited slip differential and optimized suspension for road-use ensure a truly convincing driving experience, whereas the optional four-wheel hydraulic lift system increases usability.

Focus on driving essentials.

The engine is mounted deep into the chassis directly behind the driver, to ensure a lower centre of gravity, high lateral acceleration and optimal weight distribution. Next to this, the V8 is directly bolted onto the 6-speed transaxle gearbox with a Torsen limited slip differential. Double wishbones with adjustable suspension and anti-roll bar will ensure a pure and direct vehicle control without additional electronic interference. Only the essentials as ABS and EBD are present to properly support the driver in difficult and unsafe situations. Additionally, the integrated automatic rear spoiler increases down force on the rear axle, providing even more grip and high speed stability.

Durable lightweight construction.

The basis of the car is a hybrid space frame chassis, made of high grade tubular steel, with chrome-molybdenum safety structure and rear sub-frame. The floor of the Sarthe consists of an aluminium honeycomb structure. This combination of materials and techniques results in a lightweight, super strong and rigid chassis. For a low total weight and optimum safety, the body panels are made of carbon fibre. The molds used for manufacturing these parts are precisely CNC manufactured to ensure the highest possible surface quality and accurate measurements. The total configuration of the Sarthe has an optimal weight distribution of 45% front and 55% at the rear. Overall, a sensational power delivery from the engine, a direct and undiluted hydraulic steering feel, a Torsen limited slip differential and optimized suspension for road-use ensure a truly convincing driving experience, whereas the optional four-wheel hydraulic lift system increases usability.

Intoxicating – Raw power. Lightweight. Manual.

The Vencer Sarthe provides you a proper analogue feel, as we utilize genuine engineering solutions that allows the driver to be at the centre of the involvement. A very powerful engine, lightweight hybrid chassis and manual gearbox are the three key ingredients of the Sarthe to deliver you an involving driving experience. Driver aids are kept to a minimum in order to give the car a pure an analogue character, without compromising safety and driving comfort. As a result, the Vencer Sarthe strikes the perfect balance between an analogue past and modern day comfort.

Pure mechanical feel.

In the quest for a true analogue and mechanical feel Vencer has left out unnecessary computerized driving assistance, only leaving the true soul of the car. Genuine engineering solutions ensure an intrinsic balance that allows the driver to be at the centre of the involvement. The Sarthe does not tell you how to drive, but lets you concentrate on enjoying pure driving pleasure.

Involving experience.

The short nose of the Sarthe complemented by a long windscreen provides an impressive driving experience. With no distractions between the steering wheel and the road, the driver feels even more connected to the road. The combination of lightweight construction and strong performance results in a power to weight ratio of just 2,23 kg per horsepower, which make the car’s performance and dynamic abilities highly convincing.

Focused on the essentials – Carbon Fibre. Refined. Extraordinary.

A completely new interior design brings to life an extraordinary and refined feel, with a clear and minimalist focus on only driving essentials. The typical wide door sills, close-fitting cockpit and central driving position of the Sarthe together with a short nose design, complemented by a long windscreen with direct and unrestricted view on the tarmac, are providing an impressive driving experience that lets the driver become one with the open road.

Fit like a glove.

Whilst primarily built for speed and handling, the abilities of the Sarthe are not at the expense of comfort and usability. We have paid a lot of attention to the ergonomics and driver position and all components aboard the Sarthe are made for a purpose. The car fits like a glove when sitting in the hand stitched Alcantara leather sports seats, overlooking the clean interior with matching stitching and central CIS screen. To keep all driving distractions to a minimum, Vencer has developed its own Central Information System. The Vencer CIS system is a convenient and concise multitasking digital display that provides all critical information one may need at a glance.

Carbon Fibre interior. Bespoke finish.

All interior panels are produced in-house out of carbon fibre to further save weight. A two-tone leather interior with Alcantara inserts comes as standard and is available in virtually unlimited colour combinations. Also a wide variety of materials can be selected to further customize your car, with many bespoke options to make each Sarthe truly individual.

Pure essence – Low. Purposeful. Sleek.

At the end of 2010 Vencer laid the foundation with the development of a completely new supercar. Internally this secret-project was known as “Number one”. The inspiration for the car has been drawn from iconic ’80s race cars competing in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The design details incorporated into the Sarthe are a subtle tribute to the iconic racing cars from the ’80s Le Mans era. The bodywork of the Sarthe is a tight wrapping of the raw power that lies beneath, expressed in smooth lines and profoundly sculpted flanks. The fluent shape of the car allows the lines to run cleanly from the short bonnet to conclude in a typical and aerodynamic long “Kamm” tail. Low, purposeful and sleek, the Sarthe talks performance and agility.
