As such, the marque has been able to craft a car that echoes the Cobra of the past, notably icons like the Shelby Cobra from the United States, while introducing modern elements throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a curb weight of 1,450kg and a V8 engine producing 454 BHP and 420 lb-ft. of torque, or 654 BHP and 575 lb-ft. with the addition of a supercharger, and you\u2019ve got an Cobra GT Roadster capable of fantastical performance. Notably, it can hit 60 MPH in just 3.4 seconds, all while sending that power to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual or 10-speed auto box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking at the premiere, David Conza, Chief Executive Officer of AC Cars, said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur goal was to surpass the expectations of our esteemed clientele, who have grown accustomed to the finest in automotive luxury. The overwhelmingly positive feedback we received from the attendees confirms that we have well and truly exceeded those expectations. The AC Cobra GT Roadster is a testament to our unwavering commitment to excellence. We are delighted that customers could join us from around the world, and thank them for placing the utmost faith in us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AC Cars\u2019 blast from the past can be seen in the gallery above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/fb8dd948ce1a51bc50e49823654b9a22.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22469\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5005861664712778;width:1280px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/fb8dd948ce1a51bc50e49823654b9a22.webp 1280w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/fb8dd948ce1a51bc50e49823654b9a22-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"854\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/d9ccb72b2fc1e7c4506023e93ef96bc8.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22470\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.4988290398126465;width:1280px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/d9ccb72b2fc1e7c4506023e93ef96bc8.webp 1280w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/d9ccb72b2fc1e7c4506023e93ef96bc8-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"854\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/992b82a61f77dbd131f26d84aa40ee50.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22471\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.4988290398126465;width:1280px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/992b82a61f77dbd131f26d84aa40ee50.webp 1280w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/992b82a61f77dbd131f26d84aa40ee50-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/5e484acf46bdfebf523de0b10bb74c24.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22472\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5005861664712778;width:1280px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/5e484acf46bdfebf523de0b10bb74c24.webp 1280w, https:\/\/www.ayoyo.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/5e484acf46bdfebf523de0b10bb74c24-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AC Cars has officially unveiled the all-new Cobra GT Roadster, a sports car inspired by the past but built with plenty of modern conveniences at its heart.
