ZENVO AUTOMOTIVE A/S



Location: Denmark, Præstø
Company Overview:
Zenvo Automotive A/S is a producer of limited edition hypercars based in Præstø, Denmark. Founded in 2007, Zenvo was started to combine the latest technologies and innovation with an analog feel, offering the driver a true connection and astonishing performance.

The company began with the ST1 prototype, a twin-charged introduction to the brand, and has since gone on to develop the TS1 GT grand tourer, TSR track model and the flagship TSR-S. TSR-S utilises a lightweight carbon body produced in-house, a 1,177 bhp twin supercharged flat-plane V8 and class-leading aerodynamics including Zenvo’s patented Centripetal rear wing, which reacts to steering inputs to create high levels of downforce while cornering. Production of all Zenvo models is limited to just five cars per year, all manufactured in Denmark and available to collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.
