Aspark Owl SP600

Information

The Aspark SP600, with a top speed of 438.7kph achieved at Automotive Testing Papenburg, is officially the Fastest Electric Hypercar in the World. A result driven by the vision of Aspark CEO, Masanori Yoshida, by the partnership among companies at the top of their industries, and by a team of passionate and dedicated professionals.

The car, developed and manufactured at M.A.T. headquarters in Torino, Italy, has been going through a full set of virtual and physical tests, including a specific campaign of wind tunnel validation activities and several sessions of track testing. As development and engineering partner of Aspark in this feat, M.A.T. took care of the complete development of the vehicle, including but not limited to powertrain and software integration, suspensions and chassis design, software calibration and the complete design development and production of the bespoke battery.

Finally, on the 8th of June, during the second attempt of the day, conducted flawlessly by professional driver and Nurburgring 24h winner Marc Basseng, the car was able to hit a top speed of 438.7kph, measured using the certified Racelogic V-Box, a high-precision GPS-based measurement device provided by the ATP proving ground in Papenburg. In previous attempts and tests, the car was able to pass consistently the 420kph speed mark, reaching first 420.8kph and 430kph before the final and most successful run.
