Zenvo TSR-S Showcase Puts Danish Tasty On The Petersen Museum Menu

The Zenvo TSR-S, the Danish supercar most famous for its crazy tilting rear wing, has joined the show at L.A.’s Petersen Automotive Museum.

Zenvo set off on a cross-U.S. tour earlier this year where it helped the firm establish two North American dealerships, and was introduced to press and VIPs at a Zenvo curated house within The Quail Lodge in Monterey Car Week.

But now visitors to California’s Petersen Museum will be able to catch sight of one of the rarest exotics in the country on display as part of the “Hypercars: The Allure of the Extreme” exhibition. The car on show is finished in pearlescent Ishvid Perlemoor, which is a fancy way of saying metallic white, and certainly doesn’t look out of place next to the Pagani Honda and Bugatti Chiron, or any of the other exotic cars on display.

The near-$2 million TSR-S is a road-going version of the track-only TSR, both cars being based on the TS1 GT that Zenvo unveiled at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. All three cars use a twin-supercharged 5.8-liter V8 developed in-house, which is rated at 1,177 hp (1,194 PS) in TSR-S tune. That drives the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and is claimed to hurl the Scandi supercar to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.8 seconds and to a top speed of 202 mph (325 km/h).

But the TSR-S’s big talking point is a “centripetal” rear wing that pivots at the center like a kids’ see-saw to change downforce across the car as it shifts through high speed corners. Steer to the left and the wing can drop up to 20 degrees to the right, and vice versa.

It can also tilt forward when you reach for the middle pedal to improve braking performance, and of course it can jig about when you’re parked up at your command so your buddies don’t have to follow you at Mach 2 to see it in operation.
