2026 Apollo EVO
By Lorenzo Bianchi September 10, 2025
Pure performance: 6.3-liter naturally aspirated V12, 800 hp, 0–100 km/h in 2.7 seconds.
Extreme design: Carbon monocoque, active aerodynamics, and an aggressive 1,300-kg build.
Ultra-rare: Only 10 cars will be made, with deliveries starting in early 2026.
A Hypercar for Apollo’s 20th Anniversary
Apollo Automobil has always worked at the edges of excess. Its earlier Intensa Emozione (IE) was already one of the most visceral hypercars of the last decade. The new EVO arrives as part of the brand’s 20th anniversary, developed as a successor that keeps the recipe simple: a screaming V12, radical bodywork, and a production run so small it borders on mythical.
The Powertrain
At the center of the EVO is a 6.3-liter naturally aspirated V12, rated at 800 hp and 765 Nm of torque. The engine revs freely and sends its power to the rear wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox. Numbers confirm the intent: 0–100 km/h in 2.7 seconds and a top speed of 335 km/h (208 mph).
In an era when turbos and hybrids dominate, Apollo has chosen to stay with a naturally aspirated V12, betting that buyers still crave the immediacy of throttle response and the sound of an engine without filters.
Structure and Weight
Weight is where the EVO pulls ahead of the numbers game. At 1,300 kg, it’s lighter than most modern hypercars. The carbon fibre monocoque, weighing only 165 kg, forms the core, with carbon subframes front and rear. Stiffness is up 15 percent compared to Apollo’s previous models, giving the chassis the rigidity needed to handle track loads.
The philosophy is straightforward: strip the weight, stiffen the shell, and let the V12 do the rest.
Aerodynamics Turned Up
Visually, the EVO doesn’t leave room for subtlety. The body is all carbon, with fins, canards, and winglets pushing air into submission. The active aero package deploys a large rear wing, spoilers, and sculpted fins that adjust on the move, ensuring the car generates meaningful downforce at speed.
Every surface looks designed for a purpose, though the result is theatrical. Park the EVO anywhere and it reads instantly as a car built only for speed.
Track-Focused by Design
The EVO is not built for compromise. It’s a track-only hypercar, though Apollo notes that some regions may attempt homologation for limited road use [Unverified]. Each car requires roughly 1,200 hours to build and an additional 600 hours to paint, underscoring the attention poured into these ten units.
The exclusivity goes hand in hand with usability. This is not a car intended to sit in a daily driver garage—it’s aimed at collectors and drivers who want an uncompromised track experience.
Limited to Just Ten Cars
Apollo will make ten EVOs in total, with deliveries beginning in early 2026. The scarcity is intentional. Apollo has built its brand on highly limited cars designed for collectors who value rarity as much as outright speed. With the EVO, that philosophy remains unchanged.
