Donkervoort has announced a momentous development in the production run of their all-new F22 model. In response to the fervent demand from eager consumers, Donkervoort has decided to augment the production run with an additional 25 units, bringing the grand total to an impressive 100 cars. This noteworthy announcement comes on the heels of the remarkable sell-out of the initial 75 F22 models, which were announced last December. It is important to note that the production of these coveted vehicles is already in full swing, and a select few have already been delivered to their fortunate new owners.
The illustrious Dutch boutique carmaker has recently divulged some fascinating insights into the demographics of its clientele. It appears that the majority of orders for their highly sought-after vehicles hail from the exalted realm of Western Europe. Nevertheless, the reach of their wondrous machines extends far beyond the continent, with fervent inquiries and orders pouring in from such far-flung locales as North America, the UAE, the UK, southern Europe, Scandinavia, and even Israel. Impressively, the esteemed carmaker has even allocated a coveted five cars to the eager customers of the United States, marking a remarkable achievement in their quest for global dominance.
Denis Donkervoort, the Managing Director of the Donkervoort Automobielen, recently expounded on the overwhelming success of the F22 model. “We had harbored the optimistic hope that discerning consumers would be taken with the F22’s impeccable design and superior craftsmanship, and to our elation, that hope has been thoroughly realized,” remarked the visionary Donkervoort. Such was the fervor for this marvel of modern engineering that the logistics chain had to be revisited to source sufficient quantities of the highest quality components to create an additional 25 F22 models, after all the regular production slots had been eagerly filled. As with all great things, however, this will ultimately come to an end, as Donkervoort confirmed.
It should be noted that the additional units of the esteemed Donkervoort F22 model will boast the same awe-inspiring specifications in terms of power, torque, weight, and performance as the original models.
Donkervoort F22 Specifications
Let us delve deeper into the awe-inspiring specifications of the coveted Donkervoort F22 model, for it is truly a wonder of modern engineering. Each and every one of the 100 units produced will boast a power-to-weight ratio that is nothing short of mind-boggling. To be precise, a phenomenal 666 horsepower per metric ton will propel this technological marvel forward, surpassing even the illustrious Bugatti Veyron.
What is the secret to this remarkable feat, you ask? None other than the Audi-sourced turbocharged 2.5-litre inline-five engine, which churns out up to a jaw-dropping 492 horsepower (367 kilowatts) of pure, unbridled power. This tremendous force is efficiently channeled to the rear wheels via a meticulously crafted five-speed manual transmission, which works in perfect harmony with a Torsen limited-slip differential to provide an unparalleled driving experience.
Performance
The incomparable Donkervoort F22 boasts an incredible acceleration time, as it is capable of sprinting from a dead stop to an astounding 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in a mind-bogglingly brief 2.5 seconds. Such is the remarkable prowess of this machine that it can reach an astonishing maximum speed of 180 mph (290 km/h), leaving competitors in the dust.
The illustrious Donkervoort Automobielen had initially set a deadline of December 2024 for the production of the highly coveted F22 model. However, the overwhelming success and insatiable demand for this mechanical marvel have compelled the manufacturer to extend the production run well into the midway point of 2025. This unprecedented move will not only satisfy the fervent desires of eager consumers worldwide but also provide an opportunity for Donkervoort to expand its already impressive roster of loyal patrons. Indeed, this will serve as a gateway for the esteemed manufacturer to welcome a new crop of discerning connoisseurs to the Donkervoort family, while also continuing to maintain the loyalty of its existing clientele.
