Brabham BT62 teased again with preliminary details – 5.4 litre V8, 1,200 kg of downforce, 730 PS per tonne

In just two weeks’ time, Brabham Automotive will unveil its new BT62, a limited-number model that is priced at one million British pounds (RM5,478,700). Ahead of the reveal, the carmaker has released a new teaser as well as preliminary details of its upcoming model.

The BT62 will be powered by a 5.4 litre naturally-aspirated V8 engine that makes about 710 PS, propelling a dry weight of just 972 kg, resulting in power-to-weight ratio of 730 PS per tonne. That should make for a fast car, although actual performance figures aren’t provided yet.

In the teaser image, we see the car’s thin LED taillights reflected in the large carbon-fibre rear wing, which suggests there’s some serious aero performance – the company says the BT62 will deliver over 1,200 kg of downforce. Also part of the setup are carbon brakes that are derived from Formula 1 technology – featuring six pistons front and rear.

Only 70 BT62s will be produced, and owners will join a Brabham driver development programme which will enable them to fully exploit the performance of the vehicle on the track.
