Are you brave enough to ride
this hypercar dragon?
Firebreathing and fierce, the Apollo Evo is the definitive evolution of an uncompromising hypercar idea.
The Caribbean Dragon
Location: Chichester, United Kingdom
Exactly twenty years ago, the original Gumpert Apollo tore through the rulebooks. It didn’t ask for permission, but demanded submission. Now, at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, its bloodline sees the debut of the Apollo Evo. The direct successor to the Intensa Emozione. And surprise: It levels up on the already fervorous character of its precursor. Meet Chassis 01, called »The Caribbean Dragon«.
Limited to only 10 pieces worldwide, its 6.3-liter V12 engine serves up eight hundred horsepower. Combined with a dry weight of merely 1,300 kilograms, the Evo literally breathes fire. Sheer visual aggression, formed by obsession completes the performance: More than seventy-five individual shards of carbon fibre interlock like scales. Just like the one piece, 3D-printed titanium exhaust. They call it ‘Dragon Skin’. It takes a hundred and twenty-three hours create the single piece without welds and seams. Over time, the exhaust heat tempers it and creates iridescent shades of blue and purple. A living, breathing sculpture that physically alters its own appearance the harder you push it.
Inside the cockpit? Lightweight carbon. Printed aluminium. And: Purpose. The luxury shows though the fact that there no distractions here. The connection is direct, visceral, and unforgiving. No batteries. No hybrid assistance. No silent EV mode to appease. While the hypercar world is obsessed with sensible technology, the Apollo Evo rejects this narrative. And opposes to the sanitization of speed while embracing pure, unapologetic emotion.
