AC Cars has announced a new 2.0-litre performance-focused engine option that will debut in 2026. This addition will complement the existing naturally aspirated and supercharged V8 models in the GT Roadster and GT Coupe lineup.
Lightweight and Powerful Design
The new engine, designed in collaboration with a leading global powertrain developer, will be tailored to the high-performance potential of AC Cars’ advanced GT platform. It will come in two power configurations, with outputs reaching up to 390bhp. The lighter weight of this engine compared to the V8 models will allow for additional carbon fibre elements in the chassis, further enhancing performance and efficiency.
Enhanced Gearbox Options
To accompany the new engine, AC Cars will offer a dual-clutch gearbox, ensuring smooth and responsive performance. Customers will also have the option of a six-speed manual transmission.
Staying True to Heritage
“This is a key step in our programme of growth, yet allows us to stay true to what define us. Offering clients a wider choice of performance engines will broaden the appeal for our exclusive sports cars, and means we can reach the markets that impose higher taxation of large displacement engines.”
David Conza, CEO of AC Cars
