Press Release) As a tribute to beauty and performance AKYLONE
represents the ultimate expression of pleasure and automotive
passion. Thanks to its graceful shape and outstanding finish AKYLONE
symbolizes the values of the prestigious French craftsmanship
industry.
AKYLONE embodies the subtle alchemy between pure performance and
emotion that can only be conveyed by a work of art. There will be a
limited series of fifteen units.
CONCEPTION
The Akylone project was
born more than 4 years ago with the will to create a high
performance vehicle and to return to the principle of driving
pleasure (high power and weight reduced to the minimum). During this
phase, the designers, engineers and technicians conceived an
elaborate product with a strong identity able to captivate the most
passionate and demanding customers.
Akylone is the result of a unique technical expertise combined with
the most advanced materials. Its power to weight ratio has never
before been reached by a vehicle of its class.
There is no doubt that AKYLONE will be the new reference for road
and racetrack performance due to its performance, agility,
aerodynamic qualities and polyvalent chassis frame.
