This is the ETK Kc6x 400d. At first glance it looks a lot like a ttsport but as you might be able to tell from its name, it’s a diesel. You might also be able to tell from its name the power figure, 400, This comes from the 3.0 litre straight six (sourced from the Kc6x 310d) suped up to 396 BHP and an astronomical 783 Nm. This allows it to complete a quarter mile in 11.8 seconds at 112 MPH and a 0-60 of 4.1 secs. It tops out at 156 MPH. This is impressive especially when taking into account the fact that it is only available with a manual transmission.

After our driver had stopped blacking out from the sheer torque we took it out on the open road. It isn’t exactly the best daily driver, the smallest amount of throttle and you’re off, its just too torquey for the average road, the suspension is not compliant enough and the sportplus 2R tyres have appalling grip in wet conditions. But when you’re on a perfectly even, dry road -oh boy- these paired with the active differentials clutch the road akin to a hillclimber, never understeering through the twists and turns of a mountain road.

Interior: I don’t really know what to say here, it’s not really any different to any of the cheaper ETK Ks, which is not completely acceptable considering the starting price is expected to be in 6 figures…
