Laboratori Bebi Quercianella

Swedish Supercar with a 525hp 2.4 litre V8 engine and a 0-100 km/h in in just 3,0 sec
Swedish carmaker Laboratori Bebi is developing a new super car, called the Quercianella as a tribute to the man who once helped to transform their idea in to reality. His name is Ing. Giotto Bizzarrini and Quercianella is the place where he once grew up and where he is living today. Bizzarrini, one of the most famous designers of our time, is renown for his work on evocative sportscars as the Ferrari 250GTO and the Lamborghini Miura.
The Quercianella is characterized by the Swedish company as a “baby supercar”, as it will have all the performance and all the looks of a stunning supercar, but it is slightly smaller and half the weight.
Although the Quercianella will look like a “roadcar”, beneath the surface it will be a thoroughbred racer. The Quercianella promises to outperform basically everything on any trackday and yet take its owner back to home without even the need of changing tyres. The car is in it´s second and final prototype stage and is expected to be on sale in the second half of 2006.
PRESS RELEASE: “We believe there is a niche for a baby supercar. A car with all the performance and all the looks of any supercar, but at half the weight. And therefore also a lot cheaper. Pricing is an important part of the branding process. The people behind Zonda, Koenigsegg, Enzo etc knows that. To set a price at 300.000 pounds + is an effective way of differentiating. It will limit the volume which is part of their strategy. The profit marginal is high enough and they will not have to sell many cars to make a good business.”
“We have a different way of thinking. Let´s say that you want something more high-tech than a Caterham and more of a roadcar than a Radical. You want a carbonfibre chassis, great design, a multi cylinder engine and a sekvential gearbox and you believe AC, stereo, leather upholstery etc has nothing to do with advanced driving. Basically you want a high tech formula car made for two but with the looks of a fantastic supercar. You start looking and you find …nothing. At 50K Euro you get a Caterham, Elise or a Radical. Double that and you get a Porsche 911, a Noble or a TVR. Not what you are looking for. Double that and you get a Gallardo. Nice car but not a racer. So double that and you are getting close to a Carrera GT, an Enzo or a Zonda. Pay up or step back.”
“At Laboratorio BEBI we are offering you a very special tool of a car that still looks like a car. A great looking supercar with that very special feather weight feature that makes it very fast and very nice to drive. 525 Hp and 525 Kg. Supercarperfomance, supercarlooks and supercarhandling – at half the price. This is our mission”
