The car was christened 'Speedback', at the event. It has been designed and hand sculpted by Britain's skilled workers/artists. The sports coupe will have a powerful V8 powered engine.
David Brown Automotive have given the Speedback a classic and retro look; however under the skin is modern technology. It utilises an aluminium chassis derived from Jaguar XK model.

The car will perform 0-60 mph stints in a matter of 4.6 seconds. It is a tad disappointing that the top speed has been restricted to 155mph.
David Brown Automotive choose parts and components from Jaguar, as they have been tried and tested for reliability. A new car manufacture cannot risk much in the beginning itself.
The Speedback has been designed by Alan Mobberley. He explains the car has been designed using traditional methods. A unique feature in the car is a split tail end, that utilises the trunk as a picnic bench.
The interior is premium and sports hand-crafted wood veneers, leather and nickel finish around the cabin for an old school/ retro appeal.Company founder and CEO, David Brown explains,"This car will appeal to anybody who desires a truly individual sports car, which can boast a fine British pedigree and which will only be produced in limited numbers."
