This means more comfort and more fitness for daily use.

Alongside the V8 power unit, an option powered Gumpert Tornante is also planned for 2012.

Gumpert Tornante by Touring features 2-seater sports car with a mid-engine arrangement, chrome-molybdenum steel chassis with an included safety cell, doors and the boot lid open with gull-wings, carbon body, 100 l stainless steel tank behind the passenger cell with included catch tank, long and pushrod-operated double oblique control arm suspension with fully adjustable dampers (front and rear) and anti roll bar in front, ground clearance adaptable between 60 and 140 mm, two circuit ABS brake system with six piston callipers, inside ventilated discs (378 x 32 mm) at front and rear.
