Caterham launches limited-edition Seven SuperSprint
Retro-inspired sports car restricted to 60 units
Caterham has revealed the limited-edition, retro-inspired Seven SuperSprint.
Built to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Seven — originally created by Lotus — the lightweight sports car will be limited to 60 units.
The SuperSprint features a three-cylinder engine producing 95bhp.
Retro paint schemes are on offer for the sports car, all featuring their own signature colour, named after historically famous race tracks including Aintree, Hockenheim and Imola.
Those wanting their SuperSprint to be even more like a classic race car can opt for a single-seat option, replaced with a tonneau cover to reduce weight even further.
Graham Macdonald, chief executive of Caterham, said: “Motorsport and the purist thrill of driving a lightweight race car is in the Caterham Seven’s DNA and are elements that run like a thread through every car we build today, 60 years after the first Seven was made.
“We started our 60th-anniversary year with the glorious throwback Sprint – aimed at the more discerning chap or lady driver. As we approach the end of our year of celebration, it makes perfect sense that the car bookending the celebrations is a racer of a similar vein.”
The Caterham Seven SuperSprint is available to order from today.
