EDAG Show Car No 8
EDAG Engineering + Design AG presents this car at the Frankfurt Motor Show 2005. It’s known as the EDAG Show Car No. 8.
The car is built on a SMART Roadster platform, with the base internals kept but only exterior components altered. It is an open top, not a convertible. Perfect for track days I guess.
EDAG wants to show that you can create a unique and innovtive product just by altering exterior components.
As for specs, it is identical to the SMART Roadster as there are only exterior changes. The car is powered by a 698cc suprex 3 cylinder turbo engine that’s mounted at the back of the car. The engine itself weighs only 60kg. It makes 60kW at 5250rpm and 110Nm torque at 2250-4500rpm. Fuel consumption is a combined cycle of 5.1 liters per 100km.
EDAG is still developing the car and plans to show an on-the-road prototype at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show.

E-Nabill: can’t find it… where?

I doubt the Sepang name is for the final product. Lotus has named their development car’s codenames after circuits. For example the latest Elise was codenamed Monza. This time it must be Sepang I guess.

Styling not bad! Just this car had no ROOF, not suitable use in Topical country like Malaysia. Really Just a SHOW car.
I remember POTONG Waja was developed together with EDAG.

[...] I’m sure most of you remember the company EDAG Engineering + Design AG , which made the green EDAG Show Car No. 8 which I blogged about back in September last year based on the Smart Roadster. [...]

If someone said that this car could be converted back to a Smart Roadster. I’d pay for that. This is not a visual upgrade, looks ugly as hell.
