TVR will officially return with an all-new sports car at the Goodwood Revival and this is the final teaser image.

The new two-seater GT model will be powered by a Cosworth version of Ford’s 5.0-liter V8 found in the Mustang mated to a six-speed Tremec manual transmission.

Power is expected to be around the 480-hp mark, with TVR having set the target power-to-weight ratio for the new model at 400hp per tonne. Dry weight is expected to be less than 1,250kg (2,755lbs).

The lightweight construction -which employs Gordon Murray’s iStream process– in combination with the V8 will give the new TVR some serious performance, with reports suggesting a 0-60mph in less than four seconds and a 200mph top speed.

TVR has already opened the pre-order books for a special ‘Launch’ edition of their new car, which will cost under £90,000 ($117k in current exchange rates).

Marking the company’s 70th anniversary, the new TVR model will make its global debut this Friday.
