Kepler

United States

Kepler Motors, founded by World Speed Record Holder Russ Wicks, unveiled its groundbreaking MOTION supercar at this year's Dubai International Motor Show, December 16-20.  

The MOTION sets a new standard with all-wheel drive Dual Powertrain Technology (DPT) which provides a combined 800 hp.  Power comes from a 550 hp, modified Ford EcoBoost twin-turbo 3.5 liter V6 driving the rear wheels acting independently of a 250 hp electric motor driving the front wheels.  This unique AWD system launches the MOTION to 60 mph under 2.5 seconds with a top speed over 200 mph.

The MOTION is developed from the ground up by a team of hand-picked design engineers, aerodynamicists, product development, and manufacturing specialists and incorporates a number of leading edge technologies such as active suspension, active aerodynamics, launch control and a programmable track assistant system.

Lightweight, powerful, balanced and efficient, the MOTION features extensive use of carbon fiber composite materials for its monocoque chassis and body.  The light, strong and highly impact-resistant structure provides a two-seat cabin designed to accommodate drivers of above average size in a stylish, sophisticated and aerodynamically efficient design.

Only 50 Motions were planned for production starting 2012 but this never happened.
