The Roding Roadster is a prototype super sporty two-seater that, as seen in the photos, enjoy a very special and inviting.
This model has been created by technicians and engineers from this small German factory and really it seems that the same will be talking about for years to come.
So far we know that the car will be officially presented with its final configuration at the time of conclusion of the Geneva Motor Show in 2012 and according to what we’re looking through the pictures, have each and every one of the characteristics of a true thoroughbred sports car.
The car, which incidentally is being tested extensively in the Nürburgring from almost three years ago, is manufactured using high technology, especially and primarily in regard to the frame construction. As an interesting detail that should be noted that all the central cell which is located in the interior, as well as all the space for the engine just ahead of the rear wheels of the car is made entirely of plastic sandwich fiber reinforced carbon, also bolted to the subframe that supports the different axes used in this case aluminum.
The goal is one and only one: to achieve greater rigidity with as little weight as possible, using techniques and technology seen in the Red Bull driver who knows the German driver Sebastian Vettel in Formula 1.
The search also aims to achieve an impressive top speed in curves, something you definitely also want to overcome any other similar sports car able to be enrolled. In his heart, the car has a powerful 6 cylinder Turbo engine of German origin, powered by the same house Roding, which is able to reach 300 hp and 400 Nm Final torque. Its empty weight is 950 kilograms and weight / power ratio is 3 kilos / 1 horsepower. The body is fiberglass initially but then will we know that carbon fiber to lighten the overall weight much of the car, which will surely happen and will do infinitely more interesting.
