EV hypercar for Christmas 2022?

Here’s a rare and expensive Spanish made all-electric hypercar for your wish list.

Only five of the Hispano Suiza Carmen Boulogne will be made starting from 1.65 million euros, sporting an 80kW/h battery providing 400km range, able to reach 100km/h in 2.6 seconds and a limited 290km/h top speed.

The two-seater ‘Grand Tourer’ delivers 820kW power, weighs 1630kg thanks to optimisation of structural elements such as the suspension, the carbon fibre subframe, new CNC parts and a carbon fibre roof, and takes a year to make.

The Carmen Boulogne is powered by four permanent-magnet synchronous engines, two on each rear wheel.

Torque from each engine is controlled through sophisticated vectoring systems developed in-house with the expertise gained in Formula E, reaching 1600Nm.

The lithium-ion polymer battery is designed and produced in-house, including a complete temperature control system.

It has a fast-charging capacity of more than 80kW DC, requiring 30 minutes to charge 30-80% through a CCS2 fast charger, with Chademo and GB/T charging options.

The entire body is made of carbon fibre, visible under a clear varnish that emphasises its sportiness.

The Carmen Boulogne is a fully customisable model and its interior features suede or black Alcantara on the bulkhead and door panels.

The design, engineering and production is the result of the expertise of Hispano Suiza and QEV Technologies, a company specialising in the development of electric motors and motorsports.

The five units of the Carmen Boulogne hypercar join the 14 units of the Carmen to reach a total of 19 units in production, with the first unit ready to be delivered in 2022.
