Introducing the Ultima EVO Coupe

“Arguably the most underrated car on the planet, the latest incarnation of the Ultima has a bang-for-buck quotient most supercar makers wouldn’t think possible”

Ultima Sports Ltd, proud British holder of numerous world records, can offer its spectacular Ultima EVO in both Coupe and Convertible form.

The Ultima EVO continues the timeless Le Mans Group C inspired styling of previous models for its most complete road-legal supercar to date.

The Ultima EVO offers unparalleled levels of fit, finish, quality, safety, driver comfort, usability, practicality, handling finesse and performance.

Both EVO Coupe and Convertible now encapsulate everything we have learnt from over 30 years of development.

The power-plant for the Ultima Evolution is the fuel injected LS Chevrolet V8 engine with power level options ranging from 350bhp to 1020bhp.

Ultima EVO Coupe

Head for our top spec engine option and the Ultima EVO will come with a monstrous 1020bhp supercharged LS V8 engine delivering an eye-watering 920ft/lbs torque. The result is over 1050bhp/tonne, taking both Coupe and Convertible firmly into the ultra exclusive hypercar market.

Ultima EVO Coupe

The new 1020bhp Evolution model has already been tested by the factory and has recorded a road legal 0-60mph time of 2.3secs, 0-100mph of 4.9secs with 0-150mph taking a mere 8.9 seconds! It has the capability to accelerate onwards to over 240mph.

Ultima EVO Coupe

The latest Ultima EVO is the company’s most sophisticated model ever, with revised chassis, suspension geometry, floor-mounted gear change, latest LS engine options, LED lighting and latest composite body materials.

Ultima EVO Coupe

Why not build your own supercar at home? The EVO Coupe and Convertible are easy to assemble, and over 75% of our customers have never built a car before! Whether you are working in the UK or abroad, our technicians are on-hand to guide you when necessary.

"This is no one-trick, point-and-squirt supercar, though. You can feel the chassis working beneath you, gauge the level of grip through the rim of the steering wheel and the seat of you pants and exploit that grip to whatever extent you’re comfortable with. There’s no electronic traction control, no anti-lock, no power steering-and you know what? You don’t miss them. Braking is massively strong, the pedal firm and easily modulated. Traction feels good too, while the ride is surprisingly compliant."

"It’s fully road legal, with number plates, tax disc and road tyres, details that are easily overlooked, it seems, especially since by the end of the session the Ultima has lapped pretty much everything else on the track, even stuff on slicks…."

EVO Coupe FAQ

Ultima operates a continuous process of development and, after two decades of highly successful sales with its previous models, it was time to put everything we have learnt into the new EVO Coupe and Convertible. You can learn more about our past in these two links:
History 2000 - 2010
History 2010 - 2013

1020bhp enables us to convey the huge and currently unrivalled performance capability of the Ultima road car. The Ultima is already a current multiple world speed record holder with the 640bhp, 685bhp and 720bhp options. The 1020bhp Ultima EVO adds another resource in our quest to forever retain our title as the quickest all round supercar manufacturer in history. By demonstrating this ultimate incarnation, we can show how the Ultima easily deploys this extraordinary performance with mind-blowing results.
The majority of EVO customers will opt for power levels somewhere between 350bhp-720bhp. These power levels are more than enough to outrun all modern day supercars in the lightweight Ultima. The 6.2-litre LS3 Chevrolet V8 crate engine is a popular choice which provides the Ultima EVO with 0-60mph in 3 seconds and a top speed of over 180mph. But for those customers wanting even more then we are happy to oblige!

The Ultima has always taken its inspiration from the Group C Le Mans race cars and this is something we are very proud of. We are unique in providing the sports car market with the chance to buy a new road legal Group C inspired supercar. Andrew Frankel raved about the Ultima after testing it and summed up our philosophy perfectly:
"If you don't understand the mentality, buy an ordinary car like a Porsche or Ferrari instead."

The lead-time is currently 18 months for a self-assembly comprehensive package.
The lead-time is currently over 4 years for a factory-built turnkey vehicle due to phenomenal global demand.

Absolutely yes! We sell and ship worldwide from our UK factory. We don’t use any dealers or distributors as we prefer to deal directly with our customers. This allows us to offer the best possible pricing and factory support. We have already sold the Ultima into 56 different countries and we won't be content until every country contains an Ultima!

The Ultima GTR and Ultima Can-Am are now discontinued but spare parts will always be available from the factory.

We are very happy to quote for any of the upgrades that a current Ultima owner may desire to fit to their existing car. However, all EVO models have the latest substantially improved chassis design and improved gel coat finish and therefore a 100% EVO specification can only be achieved by purchasing new components.

Yes. Our new build customers command the utmost priority here at Ultima Sports Ltd. We are happy to work with new build customers who have yet to finish their car to help them upgrade their Ultima to an Evolution specification. For new unregistered cars which have the 2013 chassis onwards we are happy to issue Ultima Evolution VIN plates as long as the customer purchases the necessary upgrade parts to meet Ultima EVO specification.

There is a online Ultima Evolution bodywork colour configurator here which shows an additional nine new colour options for our customers to choose from.

We can offer virtually any colour for our Ultima EVO wheels and the same goes for interior leather/alcantara trim and associated stitching. Just let us know your personal preferences.

You can build your own new Ultima EVO supercar for around the same ballpark price as a mundane new BMW M3.
Turnkey Ultima EVO cars can be factory built to special order.
Please contact us directly for a quotation based on your desired specification and intended usage at sales@ultimasports.co.uk.
