The headlines are that's it's considerably smaller (50 mm shorter, 60 mm lower, 20 mm narrower and with a 20 mm shorter wheelbase), 70

But even
more impressive are Apollo's claims the IE's maximum cornering grip is equal to two times the force of gravity and that as the car nears its top speed all that wild aero generates

downforce.

more downforce than its own weight, thanks to the aggressive aerodynamic package:
more than 1,200
kg (2,645 lb) of
downforce to be precise.
There's no word on performance specs as of this writing, but given that the BT62 tips the scales at only 972
kg (2,143 pounds) and generates
more than 1,200
kg (2,646 pounds) of
downforce, it's safe to assume that the supercar hits 60 mph in less than three seconds.

more downforce than the P1 road car, at 660
kg at 150mph / 240kph.
