The Rumen is a car inspired from the classic cars of the thirties, both their style and their production philosophy. Each car will be produced to individual customer order and specification. The car is much more an object of art than a utility vehicle for daily transport.

The style may be 1930's but the technology is pure 21st century. The body is crafted from carbon fibre composite which provides an ultra light and rigid structure in conjunction with a tubular steel frame. The power unit is a high output 700cc in-line three cylinder turbocharged engine that meets Euro IV emissions. The power output can be chosen as 61, 75 or even 100 HP for the brave. The drive is via a 6 speed sequential gearbox to the rear wheels. In further contrast to its 1930's roots, the car is equipped with ABS, stability control and the leather lined interior is air conditioned as standard.

This car which is based on modern technology will be available with three different engine tuning levels. As it is very lightweight, its performance is attractive and its stability can be compared to that of the best sportscars currently available. The car will offer a top quality finish and can be tailored to meet customer's requirements. Our price will be established in relation to our clients' orders. We intend for many people to have a base price of 40.000 Euros.

We also plan to make our vehicle available to the markets of UK, USA and many other countries, both as a finished vehicle and as a kit-car.
