The new Eadon Green ZECLAT exudes an easy calm and evokes comparison with cars of the past that now look more at home in automotive museums than they do on the roads of today.
At first glance, you might think that ZECLAT was designed to meander along country lanes; to waft along through splendid scenery on Sunday afternoons at gentle pace, and maybe ending at a rural pub/restaurant with a quiet meal for two.
But look more closely. The wide tyres. The ground-hugging stance. ZECLAT means business.
ZECLAT is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.2 litre V8 with a 0-60 time of 3.6 seconds and a special digital display to record the G forces at play as ZECLAT takes its corners. Nobody should doubt that ZECLAT is a sports car, a driving machine with great power and performance that is just a prod of the accelerator away.
ZECLAT is low, wide, curvaceous and beautiful, and employs simple and elegant lines to create a stunning body shape in a style reminiscent of the aero cars created in the 1930s by famous French coach builders, such as Figoni & Falaschi, Bugatti, Chapron, and PourTout.
ZECLAT may owe its inspiration to the Art Deco period but, by pairing an aluminium and carbon-nano-composite panelled chassis from the white heat of today’s technology, with a lightweight carbon fibre bodyshell, ZECLAT is a thoroughly modern masterpiece.
Shaped by the wind, ZECLAT slips through the air, directing its force through strategically placed vents that cool engine, brakes and transmission, whilst the body design works in concert to stabilize the car at speed.
The “aero-style” wrap around cockpit puts the ZECLAT driver firmly in charge of the electronics that control the driving dynamics, while the passenger has switchgear for seats and heating/cooling ventilation.
The standard cabin is dressed in hand stitched leather from Britain’s finest hides, together with carbon fibre or piano black gloss fascia, finished with polished aluminium detail work.
Eadon Green are sticklers when it comes to leather.
Our interiors are tailored using hides from Bridge of Weir Leather, a fine Scottish company established in 1905, who tan only the finest hides, sourced from the best British heritage breeds. The result is the finest leather; soft, supple, and perfectly suited to an Eadon Green interior.
You can choose from a wide standard colour palette, or even commission special colours unique to yourself.
ZECLAT draws its power from the legendary Chevrolet LT1 V8 engine, 6.2litre, naturally aspirated and offering an astounding 460hp, 465lb-ft of torque and a 0-60 time of 3.6 seconds.
Combined with the intelligent electronic traction control software, and the unique rear transaxle that helps achieve optimal weight balance, the ZECLAT 460hp V8 engine delivers its power to the road in a seamless flow, converting power to speed in a safe and controllable way.
Take your engine to the race track to explore its full potential.
ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT
Designed for peak power when you need it and fuel efficiency when you don’t, the AFM controller deactivates four cylinders in light load conditions such as motorway travel, bringing them back into life within a split second if you demand more power with the accelerator.
DRY-SUMP OIL SYSTEM
ZECLAT V8 features a dry-sump oil system whereby oil is actively pumped into the engine from an oil tank in the engine bay, ensuring that oil flow is unaffected by the G forces created by high speed cornering. The V8 oil system is also enhanced by oil-spraying jets inside the engine block, reducing piston temperature for extreme output and long-term durability.
SUPREME BALANCE
With its engine nestling at the back of the engine bay, installed into a rigid aluminium frame with carbon-nano-composite under-body panels, ZECLAT has a near 50/50 weight distribution and an enhanced power-to-weight ratio.
With performance traction management, electronic limited-slip differential and launch control, ZECLAT connects its power to the ground with great precision.
MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC
With all the power of a legendary V8 at your disposal, you will want to put this power down smoothly and efficiently.
ZECLAT features an 8-speed paddle shift automatic gearbox with a close ratio gear spread for blindingly fast gear changes.
A 7-speed manual gear box with Active Rev Match, a smart system that provides smooth gear change throttle blips, is available as a no-cost option.
FOCUSED
ZECLAT head up display offers three different views and projects its data near to your line of sight on the windscreen, helping you stay informed while focusing on the road ahead.
