Kimera is making waves with its latest creation, the K39, which is set to take on the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in 2025. Unlike its predecessors, the EVO37 and EVO38, the K39 features a full carbon monocoque chassis, showcasing the brand’s commitment to innovation.
While the EVO37 and EVO38 used a turbocharged and supercharged 2.2-liter four-cylinder engine, the K39 is expected to deliver even more power. With an all-wheel-drive system and potentially more than 600 horsepower, the K39 is aiming to break records at Pikes Peak.
Kimera’s ambitious goal is to surpass the all-time record set by the battery-electric Volkswagen ID.R racer, which conquered the hill in under eight minutes. This presents a significant challenge for Kimera, as electric race cars have a distinct advantage at high altitudes due to the lack of oxygen.
To achieve this monumental task, the K39 will likely need to exceed the power output of other high-performance vehicles that have tackled Pikes Peak. With a redesigned exhaust system and advanced engineering, Kimera is poised to make a statement in the world of hill climb racing.
If successful, the K39 would not only set a new standard for ICE-powered cars at Pikes Peak but also solidify Kimera’s position as a formidable competitor. This achievement would undoubtedly attract attention to the brand and generate interest in the limited production run of K39 road cars.
As Kimera prepares to take on the challenge of Pikes Peak in 2025, all eyes will be on the K39 and its potential to redefine what is possible in hill climb racing. With groundbreaking technology and a relentless drive for excellence, Kimera is poised to make history on the legendary mountain.
