The SSC Tuatara lineup is also expanding offering other Aggressor variants. Please welcome on the “ stage” the Striker that brings along a wide range of capabilities, both on and off the track, along with an optimized balance, predictability, and exceptional confidence instability.

This version is more than the standard Tuatara with an increased downforce is increased to approximately 1,100 lbs (499 kg) at 160 mph (257 km/m) speed. Also, the Striker brings along an extensive aerodynamics package with an active rear wing, a fixed-wing, and vertical stabilizers. The front splitter is larger, which influences larger dive planes, aerodynamic side skirts, and a protruding diffuser.

As for the interior, the stylish feature continues with exclusive characteristics such as Alcantara upholstery and an optional exposed carbon fiber dashboard. Remember that Tuatara aimed it to be a track-focused interior with unique racing seats and five-point harnesses options. The vehicle is powered by the twin-turbo 5.9-liter V8 engine that puts an output of almost 1,750 horsepower. Imagine this beast engine coupled to a robotized seven-speed manual able to shift in less than 100 milliseconds.

Tuatara Aggressor is introduced as a track-only model described by the automakers as a formidable force to be reckoned with. Build on the Striker platform you should expect nothing less than nearly limitless performance, appearance, and experience options that usually aren’t possible in the street-legal Tuatara variants.

The automaker confirmed an upgrade option for the twin-turbo V8 which allows the vehicle to perform an output even more aggressive - up to 2,200 horsepower. More details about this great news will be revealed later. The automotive industry has a new trend quickly following the brands' electrification one. Almost every brand is expanding its lineups with some other models and Tuatara did great, right?
