The most remarkable thing about the Zenvo TSR-S isn’t its four-figure power output, its seven-figure price tag, nor the fact that its V-8 engine is force fed by two superchargers. Neither is it its claimed 6.8-second zero-to-124-mph time, which matches McLaren’s claim of the Senna and is sufficient to make it one of the quickest street-legal cars on the planet. It’s not even that Zenvo remains Denmark’s only native automaker, despite having built only 15 cars since its foundation in 2009. While all of these points are certainly interesting, none gets close to the crowd-drawing effect of the TSR-S’s unique aerodynamics.
Wind and Fire
Like most hypercars, the Zenvo has a sizable rear wing, but in addition to being adjustable in the normal fore-aft plane it uses two hydraulic actuators that can pivot it by up to 20 degrees on the car’s longitudinal axis. On the Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium this proves capable of drawing a crowd to the pit.
