Barabus to Challenge Bugatti Veyron for World's Fastest Car

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

— August 3, 2006 — Autos
With a zero to 60 mph in 1.67 seconds the new Barabus TKR is vying for the top spot in the auto world record book. The TKR is set to begin production later this year. With a reported top speed of over 270 MPH this car should outrun anything on 4 wheels including the Veyron (which tops out at 250 MPH). The frame and body, crafted in Italy, are full carbon fibre. It's powered by a twin turbo 8 cylinder beast, built in England, that puts out over 1000 horsepower. And at only $500,000 USD you could buy two for the price of one Veyron.
Trend Themes
1. Ultra-fast Cars - The trend of creating cars with incredibly high speeds, such as the Barabus TKR, provides an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the automotive industry.
2. Carbon Fiber Technology - The increasing use of carbon fiber in car frames and bodies, as seen in the Barabus TKR, presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in material engineering and manufacturing.
3. Affordable Supercars - The emergence of high-performance cars like the Barabus TKR at a more accessible price point compared to luxury brands like Bugatti Veyron opens up opportunities for disruptive innovation in the sports car industry.
Industry Implications

3. Luxury Sports Cars - The luxury sports car industry should consider the disruptive potential of affordable supercars like the Barabus TKR, which offer comparable performance to premium brands at a comparatively lower price.
