\n

Monterey Porsche Week continues with yet another 911-shaped release, although there aren\u2019t actually any old bits from Stuttgart in this brand-new RUF Ehra.<\/p>\n

You see, this is RUF\u2019s latest supercar built on the carbon monocoque chassis it first unveiled back in 2017 with the CTR Anniversary. Since then, the SCR, the off-road spec Rodeo<\/a> and the Tribute have all used the same underpinnings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Named after the Ehra-Lessien proving ground where Phil Hill hit 211mph in the original CTR Yellowbird, this new creation is a widebody without a duck or whale tail. It\u2019s actually 58mm wider up front than the aforementioned CTR Anniversary, and 54mm at the rear. There is a wing too, but it\u2019s a little vented carbon pop-up item that automatically deploys at motorway speeds. How restrained.<\/p>\n

Underneath that understated tail is RUF\u2019s 3.6-litre twin-turbo flat-six, which here sends 650bhp and 664lb ft of torque to all-four wheels. Yikes. That\u2019s hooked up to a seven-speed manual gearbox, and we\u2019re promised double wishbones at all four corners with pushrod-actuated horizontal adaptive dampers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Ehra also gets LED lights, air intakes in its rear quarter windows and new forged five-spoke wheels with centrelocks. This first car is finished in \u2018Liquid Silver\u2019 paint with a hand-stitched brown leather interior. Yum. Check out the titanium pedals, the green gauges and the Pasha pattern on the carbon bucket seats too. Now that\u2019s an interior.<\/p>\n

RUF\u2019s latest creation was revealed at The Quail alongside its latest customer cars \u2013 a Rodeo, CTR Anniversary, SCR and a bonkers CTR3 EVO<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
