Central driving position

EOS features a 3-seater layout, with the driver positioned at the centreline for maximum control and the most engaging and rewarding driving experience. EOS is currently the only modern supercar to utilise this layout, following in the footsteps of the legendary McLaren F1.

Innovative aerodynamics

EOS incorporates a unique Formula 1-style double-element front wing, which generates a significant amount of front downforce. Its state-of-the art aerodynamics are complemented by an integrated rear wing design, a wide-angle rear diffuser and side winglets (X-wings) used on a road car for the first time. All these elements are the key to providing well-balanced and stable characteristics at high speed.

Composite lightweight chassis monocoque

MBR uses the latest composite aerospace materials to produce an extremely light and strong survival cell to protect the driver and passengers, as well as providing a rigid platform for highperformance driving. The company’s expertise in racing car chassis design has been fully utilised to achieve new stiffness and weight standards for road vehicles.

Fine-tuned suspension dynamics

EOS’ suspension layout is inspired by modern racing cars. Double wishbones of unequal length with inboard springs and dampers are used both at the front and rear of the car. This setup was optimised to provide maximum stability and control under acceleration, braking and cornering.
