Spada Codatronca TS 2008

Codatronca is born by the pencil of Ercole and Paolo Spada, the guide lines that has characterized the project of these new car are: aerodynamics, lightness, and pleasure of driving. The same guide lines that portrayed most of the project of Ercole Spada, like the mythical tz1 and tz2, were characterize by the back shape called “codatronca”.

The Codatronca TS is proposed with different engine that can works, in the states were it’s present, with BioFuel E85. The engine has mecchanic and electronic components developed respecting the specification of the project needs, in this way we’ve obtained from the V8, in aluminium of more than 7lt with a dry sump, with a power of 630hp at 6500 rpm, with an incredible torque of 668Nm at 4800 rpm

The power is transmitted to the ground by the rear wheels thanks to a 6 gear close ratio transmission with a specific range also at the 6th gear to the limit of 7000 rpm that push the codatronca at 340Km/h with an acceleration from 0 to 100Km/h of only 3,4 sec. The designers gave more importance to the pleasure of driving instead of speed record, in the perfect style of the gentleman driver.

The chassis is a light and stiff aluminium tubular with a roll bar cage combined for offer the maximum protection also when it’s driven on track. The bodywork is made of light and resistant fibre that cover the chassis and the mechanics parts.

The car is available at SpadaVettureSport in a limited number every year.
