Core offering

Kimera Automobili designs, engineers, and hand-builds ultra-limited-edition restomod and hyper retromod supercars inspired by legendary Martini Racing-era competition cars of the 1970s and 1980s. The company's lineup comprises the EVO37, EVO38, and K39 models, each produced in extremely limited numbers (38 or fewer units) and sold bespoke to ultra-high-net-worth collectors. Vehicles feature carbon fiber monocoque chassis, bespoke powertrains (including a Koenigsegg-developed twin-turbo V8 in the K39), and advanced motorsport-derived aerodynamics.

Product overview

Kimera Automobili is an Italian specialty car manufacturer producing limited-edition restomod and hyper retromod vehicles inspired by legendary racing cars. The product lineup consists of three main models: the EVO37 (a rally-inspired restomod based on the Lancia 037, available in standard and Martini 7 special editions), the EVO38 (an all-wheel-drive evolution with 600 HP, available in standard and Collezione Martini variants), and the K39 (the flagship hyper retromod supercar with a bespoke Koenigsegg twin-turbo V8 producing 1,000 HP). All vehicles are hand-built in extremely limited numbers with carbon fiber construction and motorsport-derived technology. The company also offers a dedicated motorsport program for track and hill climb competition versions.

Products and services

• EVO37 The EVO37 is Kimera Automobili's first production restomod, an authentic evolution of the legendary Lancia 037 rally car. It features a 2,150 cm³ 4-cylinder inline engine with a centrifugal turbocharger plus Roots-type volumetric supercharger and electronically managed electro-clutch, producing 505 CV at 7,000–7,250 rpm and 550 Nm of torque. The car combines the style and charm of 1980s rally icons with modern performance, technology, and usability, built in limited numbers for ultra-high-net-worth collectors. Special sub-editions include the Martini 7 series of 10 cars celebrating Martini Racing's 7 World Rally Championship titles.
• EVO38 The EVO38 is the ultimate evolution of Kimera's restomod philosophy, produced in a limited edition of only 38 units globally. Unlike the rear-wheel-drive EVO37, it features all-wheel drive (Integrale) with modern and sophisticated torque-repartition control and an electro-hydraulic differential lock, paired with a four-wheel push-rod shock absorber scheme. The 2,150 cm³ 4-cylinder powertrain with centrifugal turbocharger and Roots volumetric supercharger produces 600 CV at 7,000–7,500 rpm and 580 Nm of torque (extended to ~700 Nm and 8,200 rpm in the Collezione Martini variant). It is positioned as the universal heir to legendary Italian racing cars built in Turin from 1978 to 1992.
• K39 The K39 is Kimera Automobili's flagship hyper retromod supercar, representing the company's third and most ambitious act. Inspired by the iconic Beta Montecarlo Turbo and the legendary Martini Racing 'Silhouette' cars of the late 1970s and early 1980s, it features a bespoke twin-turbo V8 engine developed by Koenigsegg specifically for Kimera, producing 1,000 hp and 1,200 Nm of torque. The car is built around a carbon fiber monocoque chassis with carbon fiber bodywork and aerodynamics designed together from the beginning. It is intended for both road use and motorsport competition, including a dedicated Pikes Peak configuration, with production limited to a few units globally.
• Kimera Motorsport Program Kimera's dedicated motorsport division supports the development of racing versions of the company's road cars, including track-focused aerodynamic packages, quick-swap components, and dedicated competition configurations such as a Pikes Peak version of the K39. The motorsport philosophy is integral to Kimera's brand identity and is aimed at competition at major international events such as Pikes Peak and Le Mans. The service is available to customers acquiring racing-prepared versions of Kimera vehicles.

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• KoenigseggcoreTechnology or IntegrationThe collaboration between Kimera and Koenigsegg is described as 'More than a technical partnership' — the meeting of two fiercely independent visions of the automobile: engineering without compromise, innovation driven by purpose, and emotion as an essential part of performance. Koenigsegg developed a bespoke twin-turbo V8 specifically for Kimera's K39 hypercar, delivering 1,000 hp and 1,200 Nm of torque. Swedish technological excellence meets Italian mechanical soul.

Broad incumbents

• Bugatti (Rimac): Ultra-luxury hypercar manufacturer (Tourbillon, Chiron) under Rimac ownership producing 1,500+ hp limited-edition vehicles. Overlaps with Kimera's K39 flagship positioning and ultra-collector customer base.
• Lamborghini: Italian ultra-luxury performance car maker with limited-run models (Reventón, Sesto Elemento, Countach LPI 800) and the heritage-tribute tradition that Kimera operates in. Comparable customer segment, far larger scale.
• Ferrari: Italian ultra-luxury sports car manufacturer based in Maranello with halo limited editions (e.g., Icona series) that overlap with Kimera's heritage-themed collector positioning. Larger scale but shares customer base and event circuit.

Direct peers
