The Hyper Racer X1 price starts at around 52,100 euros, making this lightweight open-wheel racing car one of the most accessible ways to reach genuine track-weapon performance. Built by Australian maker HyperRacer, the X1 weighs as little as 350 kg, runs a superbike-derived 1300cc engine and delivers a power to weight ratio that rivals exotic supercars costing many times more.
What is the Hyper Racer X1?
The Hyper X1 Racer is a marvel of engineering, designed to be one of the fastest open-wheel racing cars on the track. Weighing in at a mere 350 kg, the X1 boasts a power to weight ratio that rivals some of the most exotic and expensive supercars in the world. Its advanced Hyper Racer chassis technology, coupled with a standard, modified or supercharged 1300cc superbike engine, delivers blistering acceleration and eye-watering top speeds.
How fast is the Hyper Racer X1?
Equipped with wings and full under-body ground-effects, the Hyper X1 Racer is capable of challenging outright lap records, thanks to its incredible speed and handling. In just 2.5 seconds the X1 goes from 0 to 100 kph, and in 6.5 seconds it reaches 0 to 200 kph. With a top speed of 250 to 270 kph, this is a car for serious drivers chasing real circuit pace rather than straight-line bragging rights. According to the manufacturer (see sources below), later track-ready X1 builds use a Hayabusa-derived engine and a chrome-moly space frame chassis to keep the X1 light, fast and affordable to repair.
How much does the Hyper Racer X1 cost?
The Hyper X1 Racer is surprisingly affordable, with a starting price of around 52,100 euros for the base specification. For anyone after a true track experience, this lightweight powerhouse is an excellent option, delivering exhilarating performance and handling that leaves even seasoned drivers grinning from ear to ear. As a chrome-moly space frame single-seater, it is also far cheaper to run and repair than a carbon-monocoque prototype, which is a big part of its appeal on track days and club racing grids.
