Built for Speed. The Swedish Hypercar Story of Innovation, Records, and Legacy (en Inglés) - Etienne Psaila; AI

Built for Speed tells the story of a Swedish hypercar vision built around ambition, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of performance. From bold beginnings to record-chasing machines, it explores how advanced engineering, lightweight construction, aerodynamics, and extreme power helped create some of the most remarkable performance cars of the modern era.

This book follows the rise of a small but highly influential manufacturer that challenged larger automotive giants through original thinking, technical courage, and a refusal to accept ordinary limits. It looks at the ideas behind speed records, carbon-fibre design, hybrid power, distinctive engineering solutions, and the craftsmanship that made these cars stand apart.

Written in an accessible and engaging style, this independent history is ideal for hypercar enthusiasts, supercar fans, automotive design readers, and anyone interested in the machines that push technology, speed, and imagination to their limits.
