Kimera EVO37 has its origins from the past, to give rebirth to a world motorsport icon, bringing it to the highest level of performances development likewise that car has been conceived nowadays, by modern knowledge and technologies.
The result of this chrono-cultural fusion is an authentic road legal “fuoriserie”, inspired by a glorious Italian racing car, realized with a contemporary design and a cutting edge making process. With excellent methodologies typical of the automotive industry and the best modern technology: 3D scanning, reverse engineering, CAD, CAE, rapid prototyping, CNC milling, sintering, electronics and the “non plus ultra” of the technological solutions available.
A car that, inspired by the Restomod philosophy, takes this concept to the extreme by combining style, flavor and charm of one of the most legendary racing “queens” of the 80s, with the. characteristics of a modern car in terms of technology, quality and performance.
A tribute to those legendary cars of the 80s protagonists of the World Rally Championships, including the last Group B 2-wheel drive to win the world title, beating the all-wheel drive rivals. An icon who became a cult model for motoring enthusiasts
The project was conceived with deep respect for the past, immediately involving the same working group who gave life to the cars that inspired the EVO37.
Franco “Inox” Innocenti, transmitted to Kimera Automobili the imprinting of the methodical workshop work, Eng. Claudio Lombardi has therefore completely revised the engine, Eng. Sergio Limone has seen and approved the setting of the chassis and the layout of the new car, which according to his advice has not been overturned, while Eng. Vittorio Roberti oversaw the correct assembly process and use of the car’s materials. World Champion Miki Biasion was also involved from the beginning.
Other great names from the Italian motorsport scene joined the group and the result is a strong technical team which includes top companies from Turin hinterland specialized in car production.
Historic companies that are part of that Piedmontese automotive supply chain, which still has a lot to say and give. Names very well known to insiders: Italtecnica, Bonetto CV, Maps, LAM Stile, Bellasi, CiElle Tronics, Sparco, together with other Italian excellences like Goodwool, Pakelo, Andreani – Ohlins, Brembo and Pirelli.
Companies that represent a technical and cultural heritage which deserves a great enhancement, especially during the specific phase Italian automotive industry is experiencing nowadays.
The starting point of the EVO37, as at the time for the original car, is the central cage of the chassis of the Lancia Beta Montecarlo, to which are anchored two tubular frames, on the front and rear. On this chassis Bonetto CV defined the set-up and the dynamics of the vehicle. In the EVO37, the tubular structure is self-supporting, as for the Delta S4, in which the cage is only the “shell” of the frame/roll-bar of the driver cockpit.
EVO37 has Pirelli wide section run-flat tyres: 18” for the front and 19” for the rear. Suspensions are totally re-designed, keeping the old scheme but evolved, with adjustable Öhlins.shock-absorbers; the upgraded braking system, by Brembo, is available with traditional or carboceramic specs.
With a long, rigorous and detailed engineering activity, Kimera Automobili creates a completely new “fuoriserie”, which combines all the finest modern technologies and materials, carbon, kevlar, titanium, steel and aluminium. The result is a unique “piece of art”, that represents the maximum expression of all the characteristics inherent in the DNA of the original car, exponentially optimized and embellished by modern technology: a bolide with over 500 hp and 550 Nm of torque!
The engine is made up from the original monobloc of the legendary Group B car but it has been completely redesigned and re-engineered by Italtecnica, under the guidance and leadership of Claudio Lombardi, the father of all the legendary rally cars of the Martini Racing team.
