(August 2007)

Canadian super car manufacturer Locus is ready to “drop a bomb” on the automotive industry with its new “750 hp” or “1300 hp” powered automobile named the PLETHORE. The 2007 Locus PLETHORE, nicknamed the “Quebec Bomb”, is the first Canadian super car that features an exotic design matched by amazing power.

Designed by Mr. Luc Chartrand, who is an electronic and composite material specialist, the PLETHORE is made completely of the lightweight racing material known as carbon fiber and has a central driving position just like the McLaren F1. Which means the driver puts on the show for its two other passengers which ride behind the driver. I believe that you could charge admission for such an experience.
With a price tag of $330, 000 CDN, one can easily see the Locus PLETHORE being snatched up by Professional NHL players and the like. Be quick though because there will only be a limit of “400 PLETHORE’s” produced per year with the first orders of the vehicle will be taken by the end of summer 2007.

Press Release:
The PLÉTHORE 2007, nicknamed (the Quebec bomb), a high performance “supercar” with an exotic design, will officially be launched on January 18th at The Montreal International Auto Show. This luxury high performance car, completely manufactured in Quebec by HTT Locus Technologies, has already aroused passion and interest.

The PLETHORE has been imagined and designed by Mr Luc Chartrand, an electronic and composite material specialist, who has combined all his personal skills and abilities in order to create his “dream car” !!!

The PLETHORE’s body and frame are entirely composed of carbon fiber, the very same material used in F-1 cars for its lightness and solidity. With its high-tech interior design, room for three people and a central driving position, the PLETHORE should amaze and attract many car lovers.

“Not only does it offer incredible visibility from the central driver position, the car also provides room for as many as three people up to 6’6” in height… a first for this class of vehicle”, comments an impassioned Mr. Chartrand.

Powered by a 750 horsepower engine (standard) or an optional engine of 1,300 horsepower capable of exceeding 330 KPH, and with an overall weight of 1,100 kg, the Pléthore is an extremely powerful vehicle as demonstrated by its amazing weight to power ratio.

HTT Locus Technologies plans to limit at 400 the numbers of PLETHORE manufactured annually. The car’s retail price is $330,000 CDN and its exotic design is simply breathtaking! First cars should be delivered, on order, by the end of Summer 2007.

Locus technologies Inc is a private Quebec company founded in 2000 by Mr Luc Chartrand in order to develop and manufacture new “supercar” type of vehicles. Other private investors are also involved in the company.
