What is the fastest car in the world? World's fastest production cars 2023<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nWith 1,013bhp, 700Nm of torque and a top speed of 224mph, the FZero is aiming to outpunch the Valkyrie and become what Dicker says will be \u201cthe fastest car on earth.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rodin has also revealed that the RC.TEN engine \u2013 in both turbocharged and normally aspirated form \u2013 will be made available as a \u2018crate motor\u2019 for other motorsport applications.<\/p>\n
The first test of the FZero\u00a0took place on Rodin\u2019s own test track at the company\u2019s new facility near Mount Lyford on New Zealand\u2019s South Island, where final development work and build of the hypercar is taking place.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Stepping out of the enclosed cockpit, Dicker commented; \u201cThe test went very well and we were able to work through our programme. We\u2019re excited as the FZero project enters its next phase. It really is a car like no other.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dicker\u2019s aim has always been for Rodin to build the ultimate track car with the company initially focusing on the FZED open-wheel single-seater, which started life as the ill-fated Lotus T125 project until it was rescued by Rodin.<\/p>\n
The FZero is built to be faster around a track than a Formula One car as it has been developed free from any motorsport regulations. \u201cIt\u2019s built for the track, it\u2019s built to be quicker than an F1 car,\u201d Dicker told Auto Express in 2022. \u201cThere are no limits, no rules.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dicker also confirmed to Auto Express that a road-going version of the FZero would be made once the first batch of 30 track cars had been built, while the company is also working on an all-electric model destined for road use.<\/p>\n
Rodin had hoped to deliver the first FZero\u00a0this year, but the company\u2019s merger with British race team Carlin, and an unsuccessful application to become Formula 1\u2019s 11th team, have delayed things.<\/p>\n
However, Dicker and Rodin still support drivers including Liam Lawson, currently reserve driver for F1 team Red Bull Racing, who competed in five Grand Prix this year sitting in for Daniel Ricciardo at Alpha Tauri, and Louis Sharp, recently crowned British F4 champion.<\/p>\n
