2014 Ligier JS P2

The Ligier JS P2, a closed LM P2 sports prototype, is the first racing car conceived entirely in house by the Onroak Automotive design department. The project has been led by Nicolas Clémencon from its creation, and his team started from a clean sheet of paper to design the new model. They were able to avail themselves of the experience gathered with the Morgan LM P2 penned at the end of 2011. The French constructor also took advantage of the work carried out by the different teams running this LM P2.

The Ligier JS P2 is a completely new car which will be available for the three remaining seasons of the current ACO-FIA regulations in force until 2017. The three engines currently on offer, the Honda HPD, the Judd HK and the Nissan VK45, can all be installed in the car’s engine bay and its closed monocoque will enhance the JS P2’s overall level of safety.

After the success of the Morgan LM P2, the Ligier JS P2 will complete Onroak Automotive’s offer with the same aims in terms of performance and reliability. Thus, the Sarthe-based company confirms its determination with the Ligier make to become a race car constructor selling a complete range of sports prototypes. To celebrate this rapprochement a new logo will symbolize the Ligier identity.

The Morgan LM P2 will continue its successful career. It is one of the best prototypes in the LM P2 category as confirmed by its results in 2013, which will be reinforced by those scored by the teams that have opted for it this year.

In 2014, Onroak Automotive will be present on endurance circuits everywhere with two types of LM P2s, the Morgan LM P2 and the Ligier JS P2, plus the Ligier JS 53 EVO in CN.
