The final spec for this €3m V12 hypercar includes a stripped, ‘skeletonised’ interior

The Serious Bits you already know: big, hearty, 6.3-litre naturally-aspirated V12, six-speed paddle-shift sequential, rear-wheel-drive. A targeted (feather) weight of just 1,300kg. Big brakes. Sticky tyres. 1,350kg+ of downforce. Two entire Gs of lateral grip. A 0-62mph time of 2.7s and a 208mph top speed.

The Fun Bits you already see: it looks like a giant wasp! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the Apollo Evo, a product that comes to us via “Germany’s sole dedicated hypercar manufacturer”. We’ve seen it in various states and its previous incarnations, and now we meet its Final Boss stage. The production stage.

Which means we get to gawp at the interior for the first time, or at least, what remains of it. Apollo – whose history stretches back to the Gumpert Apollo – has ‘skeletonised’ the insides, by which it means ‘tear everything out and add buttons’.

It’s been constructed from the usual suspects of carbon fibre and aluminium, which you can literally see, because “load bearing structures remain fully visible”. Sprinkled into this spartan interior, you’ll find racing buckets, a sliding pedal box, a new steering wheel, and “driving critical controls arranged horizontally on an exposed carbon fibre beam”.

Pretty exposed outside, too. It’s the same wild look Apollo has fashioned, only mildly updated since we last saw it. There are new daytime running lights, lots of active aero, including a movable rear wing able to react in “under one second”. Needs to be fast: the V12 kicks out 789bhp and 564lb ft via 6.3-litres of nat-asp goodness.

Just ten are being built in two batches of five, with the first Apollo Evo now literally on the production line. Only a few remain, we're told. The price? But of course: €3m plus local taxes and fees. Yeah, that’s another Serious Bit.
