KTM X-Bow - Concept, Design, Production and Development of the Road-Homologated Cars
A tribute to the dazzling KTM X-BOW - the world's first production sports car with a full carbon composite monocoque. To fully understand and enjoy this car it should be appreciated on many different levels: a racing car for the road, and a road car that can excel on the track; its unique composition and aerodynamic qualities; its design and aesthetics.
The X-BOW was brought to life by the virtually unlimited resources of an industrial giant steeped in motorsport, which demanded that it be technologically cutting-edge.
The car was honed to perfection by arguably the finest racing car engineers in the world, for whom 'best in class' was a minimum requirement. It is an objet d'art that can race in anger, or can transport in style. It startles, it fascinates, it wins.
This book details the design and development, the build process, racing history, and what it's like to live with and maintain a X-BOW, written by joint owners and enthusiasts, with the full cooperation of the car's designers and developers.
