The World’s Fastest Luxury Hybrid Car?

Veritas RS III Luxury Hybrid Car

A strangely attractive supercar, the Veritas RS III roadster is generating rumors that it may be the world’s fastest luxury hybrid car.  I must admit I am unfamiliar with a Veritas RS I or II…but this is certainly an interesting vehicle.  In my opinion it would make a unique offering in any fleet of exotic luxury rental cars, something a bit different to experience.

The diminutive sportscar manufacturer Vermot AG introduced the Veritas RS III roadster a year ago in standard form, and the new hybrid version is drawing attention.  This luxury hybrid car is but a single-seater (so not so much for the married types), with full-electric capacity and quite a power arsenal for its size! Los Angeles exotic rental car companies will be waiting in line to add this to their fleet or rental cars.

The Veritas RS III hybrid can sprint from 0-60 in a stunning 3.1 seconds, which is interesting when you consider the powertrain.  The hybrid RS III still has the same BMW V10 engine under its hood, kicking out 510 horses, but it is joined by a 105-kilowatt electric motor and lithium-ion battery pack.  The electric motor provides the BMW engine with an additional kick, and lowers fuel consumption while still reaching speeds of 205 miles per hour.

The Veritas RS hybrid also features a KERS system (Kinetic Energy Recovery System) that recovers energy lost in the braking system, and is all-wheel drive.   This luxury hybrid can travel approximately 31 miles in all-electric mode at lower city-driving speeds.

Pricing is still a mystery for the hybrid version, but with the standard costing around $375,000, you can bet it will be up there!
