What makes the Apollo EVO’s exhaust unique?
According to a report by CarBuzz, the exhaust is entirely 3D-printed from titanium, with a design mimicking dragon scales. This isn’t just for looks—the scale pattern improves heat dissipation and reduces overall weight compared to conventional exhaust systems.
What are the engine and performance specs?
The Apollo EVO is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3-liter V12 engine producing over 800 horsepower. It is strictly a track-only vehicle, meaning it is not street-legal. Power is sent to the wheels via a 6-speed sequential gearbox.
How much does the Apollo EVO weigh?
Thanks to extensive use of carbon fiber and titanium in its construction, the EVO weighs approximately 1,250 kg (2,756 lbs). This lightweight construction, combined with the powerful V12, promises blistering track performance.
How much does the Apollo EVO cost and how many will be made?
Production is limited to just 10 units, each priced at $4 million (approximately SAR 15 million). This places the EVO among the most expensive hypercars in the world.
When will the Apollo EVO arrive in the Middle East?
Apollo has not yet announced distribution plans for the Gulf region. However, given the presence of wealthy collectors in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, it is likely that some units will make their way to the region through private dealers.
What are the main rivals of the Apollo EVO?
The Apollo EVO competes with other track-only hypercars such as the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro and the Mercedes-AMG One. Its unique selling points are the bold exhaust design and the naturally aspirated V12 engine.
