A stunning seven-hundred thousand dollar homage to the legendary sports vehicle, the Volvo P1800 Cyan is the newest work of art from Cyan Racing. Its captivating metallic green color makes this new edition stand out and gives it a personality of its own.

This new P1800 GT is an upgrade over its earlier model, which debuted a few years ago; it's designed to be more focused on the road and provide a somewhat smoother ride.

In terms of upgrades, the suspension tuning is among the most striking. Although it still has a fully adjustable suspension, the GT model's suspension has been fine-tuned to make short work of twisty rural roads and extended trips. Cyan Racing has also improved the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine's general drivability.

An American fortunate will soon be the proud owner of this breathtaking green P1800, one of the earliest GT versions of the model. To top it all off, the front grille, bumper, and mirrors are adorned with chrome highlights, making the vehicle even more attractive.

Displaying bronze brake calipers, the striking appearance is further enhanced by beautiful wheels coated in gold. When you get inside, you'll find a genuinely opulent driving environment with plush sand-colored leather and textiles, a sporty Momo Prototipo steering wheel with three spokes, and a titanium roll cage encased in leather.

With an emphasis on the limitless personalization choices available with the Volvo P1800 Cyan, Cyan CEO Christian Dahl couldn't control his enthusiasm over this new version. In a moving speech, he described how the whole crew feels enormous joy when they work together to customize each vehicle to the client's specifications.

Taking design cues from the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder powertrain of the Volvo S60 TC1 racing car, the P1800 Cyan's engine is a real powerhouse. In its most powerful form, it produces 413 horsepower and 335 pound-feet of torque. Customers have the option to choose their preferred power output, beginning at 350 hp. Each model comes standard with a dog-leg five-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive, making for an exciting and dynamic ride.
