K1 Roadster is the first supercar built in Slovakia. It has already entered production (around 30-40 units a year) and will be sold all over the Europe. The new model has incredible sporty capabilities and can be transformed in both coupe-targa and convertible due to a very ingenious removable top.

K1 Roadster makes the 0-60 mph sprint in 4.9 seconds and can hit a top speed of 155 mph, due to its weight of only 992 kg, and the 48/52 front/rear distribution.

The supercar has a central mounted engine that can be easily seen from the exterior. Is sporty design is increased by the 215/45ZR17 front and 265/35ZR18 rear wheels.

The K1 Roadster is a superbly finished racing car. The constructors have done a wonderful job, giving the phrase ‘paying attention to detail’ new meaning.

The cars seats are superbly finished in leather and equipped with fine belts. Many parts have been finished in carbon fibre. Interior design updates include a gear lever that feels great in the hand. The K1 Roadster is equipped with an air conditioning system, a standard accessory.
