But will Apollo IE have any meaningful impact on hypercar design?

It's already having an impact. Go on to see just how extreme some of the newer hypercars are getting with their aero.

I think its influence is going to be subtle. On future performance cars we might see some more intricate aero details.

Instead, the IE is more likely to be remembered as a design dead end, rather than as a pioneer.

But it may be its enduring influence that owes more to the use of materials and the application of construction techniques than to the styling itself.

It does have an effect, though that will not be a positive one. But it may lead designs to do the complex unnecessarily.

I can't see how the IE will have a widespread impact: its purpose is so specific they'd have to design the machine around it here.
With hybrid hypercars now the flavor of the day, is the Apollo IE's naturally aspirated V12 passé?
30 January 2025 10:09
Not at all. They can’t beat the sound and response of a NA V12. A dying breed is one that needs to be celebrated.

It's definitely outdated. Since hybrid systems have better performance and efficiency. Apollo missed out on this boating.

Who cares if it's outdated? The thing is it’s all about the driving experience and there’s nothing like a high revving V12.

In today’s market, it’s a bold one. I give them credit for sticking to what they believe is the purist way.

Outdated? Maybe. In many cases, the old ways are best ways, especially for cars that are built for the track.

However, it's good to see a company go against the hybrid grain. Not all things have to be electrified.

I think it's a mistake. By not believing in new technology, they are limiting the car’s potential.

Numbers don’t matter—they are outdated only if you care about them. The IE is an emotional product and for that, the V12 delivers in spades.

It would have been at least nice if they offered a hybrid option. I feel this is a missed opportunity.
At this intemperate price should you be prepared to put up with the Apollo IE’s exclusivity?
30 January 2025 10:09
Absolutely. So you’re not just buying a car, you’re buying a piece of automotive art.

No way. For that amount of money, you could buy a fleet of supercars just as much fun to drive.

If you looked at it as an investment, you justified it. Few of these limited run cars fail to appreciate in value.

Crazy price but that’s what makes it special. It’s not designed to be accessible.

I think it's overpriced. It’s just the badge and exclusivity, you’re paying a premium for.
