Aspark Owl SP600 Clocks 272.6mph, Claims Title as World’s Fastest Unofficial Electric Supercar

The Aspark Owl SP600 has just set an astounding unofficial record, achieving a top speed of 272.6 mph (438.73 km/h) on a lengthy stretch of road in Germany. This feat marks it as the fastest electric vehicle (EV) to date, though unofficially.

Emerging in the mid-2010s, the Aspark Owl began as a mysterious Japanese electric supercar, gaining intermittent attention over the years, particularly for its rapid 0-62 mph acceleration. Its latest iteration, the SP600, has been meticulously refined and developed by Manifattura Automobili Torino (MAT), a renowned name in the auto industry known for their work on the SCG003, Apollo Intensa Emozione, and the new Stratos.

The development process for the SP600 was extensive, involving a rigorous series of both virtual and physical tests. This included wind tunnel experiments to ensure aerodynamic efficiency and several days of demanding track testing to optimize performance.

This remarkable achievement in speed highlights the growing potential and sophistication of electric supercars. Aspark’s success with the Owl SP600 not only pushes the boundaries of EV performance but also showcases the advanced engineering and innovation that continues to evolve within the automotive industry.
