Posted on March 07, 2010 by Justin Ridge

Trident Iceni CarThe Trident Iceni is another good response to policy changes that we are living throughout the world, regarding the use of alternative energy. This outstanding sports under its bonnet has an impressive bio-diesel engine.

The firm is from the United Kingdom and has not chosen at random the name of this model, as is Iceni tribe who lived in the place where Trident is your plant.

In addition to incorporating this engine, the Iceni has also changed in some aspects of his aesthetic. Where the addition of more luxury features and better finishes and a new design in its optical and front grille give it a more robust and high performance.

The redesigned engine of this beast is a V8 diesel with 6.6 liters of displacement that delivers about 550 hp. With this power the Iceni can reach a top speed of 320 km / h and reaches from 0 to 100 km / h in just 3.7 seconds. The fuel, of course, is biodiesel, which comes to have an excellent average fuel consumption, as circulated to 112 km / h reached to 3.36 litres/100 km, and if it is rolled to 50 km / h, the cost can to be minimized up to 2.18 litres/100 km. This was accomplished by low revs this engine gives us, as it has up to 980 rpm The price will be high of 75,000 pounds (139,500 euros) but worth it.

Soon to be released, but still firm seeks funds, because this class of products has great drawing power.
