Wiesmann, the leading manufactory of purist sports cars that combine classic design with state-of-the-art technology, has unveiled its design study called Wiesmann Spyder at the Geneva Motor Show in 2011.

Wiesmann Spyder design study is based on the Wiesmann brothers� early designs, though it also incorporates their many years of experience in sports car construction. This twoseater, ultra-light, and extremely purist convertible sports car is the essence of Wiesmann�s philosophy.

The Spyder Concept, with a kerb weight of less than 1000 kg, can accelerate from 0-100 km/h less than 4 s and reaches a top speed of approximately 290 km/h. Basis for this excellent performance is a 420-hp V8 high speed motor which is powered by a 4 liters of engine capacity. The Spyder has no doors or windscreen and is the most extreme Wiesmann car ever built.
