Technology


Low weight, structural integrity, safety and design flexibility were the main design parameters for the MXT chassis development.

The main chassis elements are built from specially designed aluminum extrusions, combined with aluminum sheet boxes. The floor is a composite molding/aluminum sheet sandwich. The chassis elements are bonded with Henkel Epoxy structural adhesives.

A Chromoly square tube complementary subframe supports the engine, transaxle and rear suspension.

An energy absorbing crash box is mounted ahead of the front axle.

The composite body center section is bonded to the chassis with polyurethane adhesive. Bumpers, doors, hood and engine lid are molded In RTM composites.

State of the art electronics, including a dual mode racing style instrument cluster are specified.

The Mastretta MXT was designed around the VCA Type Approval certification process. All production cars will meet VCA guidelines.
