Quarkus, the French underdog in the automotive world, just dropped a bombshell: they’re gearing up to unleash their first-ever production vehicle, the Quarkus P3! And let me tell you, it’s not your run-of-the-mill supercar.
a sleek, ultralightweight sports car that’s about to shake up the scene. Quarkus is on a mission to flip the script on heavy sports cars, and they’re doing it with style.
They’re talking about just 26 of these bad boys hitting the streets in 2026, each packing a tiny hybrid engine but delivering performance that’ll make even a Porsche 911 GT3 RS blush.
Now, before they roll out the red carpet for the P3, Quarkus wants to flex its muscles at none other than the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
Yep, that hair-raising race where legends are made. They’re sending in their P3 to show the world what it’s made of, with racing driver Bruce Jouanny behind the wheel.
But here’s the kicker: the P3 isn’t just about burning rubber and turning heads. It’s the culmination of Quarkus’ journey, starting from the drawing board with the P1 and then the P2. They’ve been cooking up something special, folks.
The P3 isn’t your typical supercar. It’s all about being light on its feet, weighing in at just 1,322 lbs, thanks to a carbon fiber chassis that’s as tough as nails.
And under the hood? A mysterious mild-hybrid four-cylinder engine with enough oomph to leave you breathless.
Now, will you be able to snag one of these babies in the US? That’s still up in the air. But with only 26 up for grabs worldwide, you can bet your bottom dollar that collectors this side of the pond will be scrambling to get their hands on one.
