2015 Wimmer KTM X-Bow GT
The KTM X-Bow already had a high output of 140.5 hp per liter from its turbocharged 4-banger. Wimmer takes it to another level entirely with their set of software optimizations and assorted upgrades to give the engine an extreme 242.5 hp per liter, or 485 hp total. This type of power in the lightweight X-Bow allows for a 0-62 mph time of just a hair under 3 seconds.
The vehicle also received a gold foil wrap which among other things will help to keep the body cool in its new home in Dubai.
