2008 - Espera Montbéliard

Mulsanne

After the Genesis and Nemesis presented at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show, Espera Montbéliard students set about designing and building two other prototypes in record time: the Katana and the Mulsanne.

The Mulsanne was designed and built at the same time as the Katana (Espera photograph).

For the racetrack

The Mulsanne is a mid-engine sports car powered by a turbocharged two-liter engine (Citroën XM origin) developing 160 hp. The chassis is Dual Frame and the bodywork is fiberglass. In short, classic Espera. The Mulsanne was presented at the Paris Motor Show in October 2008.
