2006 a.d. Tramontana
a.d.Tramontana presented their original concept car at the Geneva Motor Show in 2005 as well as at the Top Marques Monaco fair in the same year. Due to its incredible initial success among industry specialists, this year the company will launch the final production model at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show.
a.d.Tramontana is a Catalan company that represents a new generation of entrepreneurial engineers. The company is located on the beautiful Costa Brava of North-eastern Spain, a place that has been a great source of creative inspiration. They say their latest supercar is an heir to Spain’s automotive legacy, which included the Hispano Suiza and Pegaso.
The car is custom-designed and built according to the personal requirements of each client. This is done first by conducting an ergonomical study of the measurements of the driver, then by using the materials of his or her choice and, finally, by differentiating each unit with an engraving of a poetic verse in the chassis of the car. These characteristics assure that each Tramontana is a unique work of art modelled on the specific desires of the client.
Not only is the Tramontana attractive, it is also an extremely powerful piece of machinery, including a central V12 bi-turbo engine and over 500 horsepower.
The Tramontana also adheres to high standards of safety. It includes a body of carbon fibre and a chassis that has been specially developed for this particular model and introduces a new structural system that combines an indeformable central zone with eight other zones of shock absorption. The body is made of carbon fibre.
