Eterniti Motors debuts the "Hemera"
Based on the Porsche Cayenne Turbo

It's hard enough for a non-German car to get noticed at the Frankfurt Show amid the vast displays of the domestic manufacturers, but when you are a new brand that no-one has heard of, logic suggests you might be better off making your global debut somewhere else.

Yet in hall 5, one floor up from a new Ferrari convertible and Maserati's first SUV, a new British car company is trying to deflect a bit of attention. It is called Eterniti Motors, and it has ambitious plans to launch a bespoke £150,000-plus SUV called Hemera and based on the Porsche Cayenne Turbo early next year.

The company will soon move into refurbished premises at Park Royal in London, where offices and a showroom will sit alongside the workshop that builds and services the cars.

Eterniti will strip of the steel body of the Cayenne and replace it with a carbonfibre composite shell that looks remarkably like that with which the car left Germany. The power of the 4.8-litre twin-turbo engine goes up to more than 600bhp. But the biggest effort will go into the hand-crafted, any-way-you-want-it interior.

The first UK customers will get their cars next summer, but the majority of sales are likely to come from the Asia/Pacific region, especially Hong Kong, Tokyo and Taipei.

Eterniti was founded by a group of international investors - ‘there are no big names of famous people,' said a company spokesman - about a year ago. And its plans do not stop here. Other variants of the Hemera, with different engines and specification, will be developed and followed by another SUV and a high performance car.

Not.







I hate it and it needs to die.

 

I hate how they call it "British". No, it isn't British...

And why is it that since the first Cayenne there has been a never ending competition amongst tuners to create the ugliest Cayenne possible?
