Rebirth of a motoring legend: Spain's 'Rolls Royce' favoured by monarchs and aristocracy in the Roaring Twenties unveils a £1.3m electric supercar - the first since the firm went bust in the late 60s

It is the first model from the once popular Hispano Suiza car brand since the end of the second world war

The super car uses lightweight carbon fibre on the subframe and echos the classic designs of the 1920s

The fully electric vehicle costs £1.3m and has a horsepower of 1,005 that is soley generated in its back wheels

'Carmen' accelerates to 62 mph in under three seconds and reaching 'electronically capped' speed of 155mph

왕년의 명가 히스파노 수이자 수퍼카 탄생   한때 스페인의 롤스로이스나 벤틀리에 버금가는 고급 자동차 브랜드로 칭송받았고 왕족들이 선호하는 고급 자동차 브랜드가 그 브랜드의 세계적인 명성을 되찾기를 바라는 새로운 디자인으로 비평가들을 열광시키고 있다. 히스파노 수이자의 '카르멘'은 주로 탄소섬유로 만들어져 완전히 전기로 구동되는 경량 슈퍼카다.  이 슈퍼카 가격은 1백3십만불, 1,005 bhp(제동마력)로 최고 속도가 155mph인 3초 이내에 62mph까지 가속할 수 있다. *제동마력 BHP: 흔히 마력을 제는 계측 방법중 하나로 브레이크를 걸어놓고 얼마나 엔진이 힘이 나는지 재는 것. 현재 컨셉트 디자인 단계로 이 자동차는 1968년에 원래 회사사 파산한 후 광란의 20년 대에서 인기를 구가했던  이 회사의 첫 번째 생산 차종이 될 것이다. 제조사들에 따르면 길이 4.7m, 2인승 카르멘은 하이퍼카 성능과 최고급 럭셔리함이 결합된 신흥 '하이퍼룩스' 시장을 겨냥한 것이다. 카르멘은 전기 동력 자동차만을 사용하는 자동차 경주 부문인 포뮬러 E에서 사용되는 배터리를 사용하여 155mph의 속도로 전자적으로 제한하여 후륜에서 모든 에너지를 생산한다. 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 큐레이터 Ki Cheol Hwang, conpaper editor, curator

According to its makers, the 4.7m-long, two-seater Carmen is aimed at the emerging 'hyperlux' market, which combines hypercar performance with top-end levels of luxury.

The Carmen uses batteries used in Formula E, a motor racing division that uses only electric-powered cars -  to produce all the  of energy in its rear wheels, with the speed electronically limited at 155mph.

'We limit the top speed because we don't think there's sense in any more', said Technical director Luci Marti who spoke to Top Gear. 

The car weighs in at just 1,690kg, made possible by lightweight material in the interior and carbonfibre in its frames.

According to Hispano Suiza, the new model is said to be one of the most 'carbonfibre-intense cars in the world'.
