Arash



Arash Motor Company was born out of a passion for cars, the allure of beauty and the thrill of driving the seemingly endless acceleration of a thoroughbred engine.

The engine, or better still, the soul of the AF10 is designed to withstand the punishment of motor racing and we're sure it will excite even the most accomplished of drivers.

The superlative handling of a chassis designed by leaders in their field combined with extraordinarily forceful braking performance will make you question whether the tyres will still be intact when you climb out. The AF10 seduces and excites on every level with it's distinctive silhouette and exceptional performance.

CHASSIS/ SUSPENSION/AIRFLOW
– Main Structure Patented Design 2x2 twill, triaxial weave Carbon Fibre with – Aluminium Honeycomb core
– Front and Rear Sub frames Steel
– Roll Cage Steel
– Formula 1 composite engineers were enlisted to produce the chassis out of carbon fibre with a high strength aluminium honeycomb core.
– Autoclave process...
– 2x2 twill and triaxial weave used to give a very high stiffness and strength to weight ratio.
– The end result is an accurate, incredibly light and rigid structure manufactured to the highest standards.
– Strong steel tubed front and rear subframes and a full roll cage complete the chassis structure
– Completely flat underfloor ensures smooth airflow under the car giving the AF-10 high aerodymanic performance. Computational Fluid Dynamic Tested
– Thoughout its development the AF-10 has been subjected to various virtual aerodynamic simulations using complex state-of-the-art CFD software
– The suspension is Double Wishbone AFMS Nickel coated Multimatic Special AF10 Edition Aluminium
