Praga began producing street cars in 1907, but in recent years, it has focused primarily on go-karts, Dakar trucks, and race cars.
However, the automaker is shaking things up with a new, lightweight Bohema supercar with 700 horsepower, as reported first by New Atlas.
Bohema Supercar
The astonishing 982 kg (2.165 lb) weight of the Bohema is only 2 kg (4.4 lb) more than Gordon Murray's T.50 "fan car," which is an extreme outlier among high-end street-legal vehicles.
The driver is the only thing standing between the carbon race seats and the carbon body, which is mounted on a carbon frame as well.
The supercar features a twin-turbo V6 Nissan with 3.8-liter transported to Litchfield Engineering, where it is transformed into a dry sump in the extremely low Bohema chassis.
It is designed to produce at least 700 horsepower with at least 725 Nm (535 lb-ft) of torque delivered to the rear wheels via a Hewland sequential gearbox from 3,000 to 6,000 rpm.
There are scoops and flaps almost wherever in the car, according to New Atlas, and the front wheels are also completely exposed and separated from the rest of the car by aero gaps.
900 kg of Downforce
At 250 km/h (155 mph), Praga claims it produces 900 kg (1,984 lb) of downforce. Hence, by the time it crosses 300 km/h (186 mph) and reaches the top speed, it could be driving upside down, according to New Atlas.
Although it is a high-end vehicle, New Atlas notes that its price of €1.28 million (US$1.34 million) places it at the low end of the high end.
Praga's extensive track record and super-lightweight design might make the Bohema one of the fastest street-legal vehicles around a track, even though it lacks a hybrid system and hand-built engine.
Ten vehicles will be produced for delivery in 2023, and Praga said that it is planning to produce 20 additional vehicles each of the next four years.
