Evanta will reveal its new Barchetta two-seat sports car at the Goodwood Revival this weekend.
The retro-styled model, which has been "inspired by the design language of 1950s motorsport", is described as having "sleek, sweeping curves" and "Angle-Italian parentage". The car will be made in a limited production run of 148 units.
Built in Britain, the Evanta Barchetta is powered by a 6.2-litre V8 engine developing 450bhp. A tubular chassis supports the car's Kevlar bodywork in standard form, while an aluminium-bodied version will also be available.
Both left and right-hand versions will be built, with customers able to specify both manual and automatic transmission options.
The company says the combination of a powerful engine and low weight gives the Barchetta "exceptional agility". Pricing guides from the firm place the standard Barchetta at around £125,000, with the aluminium-bodied version costing £165,000.
Evanta has also announced it will unveil a new GT concept car in 2015. Order books for the Evanta Barchetta will open at the Goodwood Revival.
