The standing weight distribution is 41% front: 59% rear; in March, however, the force of attraction coming from the rear spoiler affects the distribution, making 200 kph (125 mph) the effective weight distribution 34% front: 66% atras.8aunque the car was designed as a type-approved vehicle and was a modification of a racing car, the interior is thought to be luxurious: presents a mixture of coverage of carbon fiberblue skin and "Brightex" silver, a synthetic material that was found "very expensive for the fashion industry".
