RACE-WINNING
ENGINEERING
Beyond DNA. Beyond Pedigree.
Championship-winning race car
componentry powers your S-APEX.
Smooth. Quiet. Comfortable. And blisteringly fast. Sub 10 minutes at Pikes Peak, hypercar pace at Laguna Seca or your local racetrack, all in a reliable and safe family sedan. Truly the ultimate daily driver equally adept at attacking morning commute and attacking the clock on track.
Forget the crazy operating costs of a Porsche 911 GT3 RS, a Lamborghini Super Tropheo, a Dodge Viper, or any other legendary track-car, let alone hypercars. Between brakes, fluids, motor and transmission maintenance and more, the costs of world-beating pace is significant. The S-APEX offers near zero-maintenance even for hardcore track use, with full warranty.
We set the bar for the S-APEX at beating the fastest production-based cars, not just EVs. Not just 4-doors. The S-APEX can lap with the very fastest track-weapons and drive you to and from the track in quiet comfort, something that nearly any gas-powered track car can’t do. Beat the world’s most legendary performance cars with a 5000lb family sedan.
The same suspension parts, aerodynamics, braking systems, wheels, and other components that we win with on the track are fitted to every S-APEX, and optionally you can install our full racing TTX-coilover system and have the full race-winning formula from Dark Helmet at your disposal every time you pull out of your driveway.
