Sbarro Ionos

The Sbarro Ionos was a concept designed to follow in the footsteps of the Lancia Stratos.

Power for the two seat Sbarro Ionos came from a mid-mounted V10 created from two Lancia Kappa 5 cylinder engines mated to form one unit. The transmission was a AWD system from the Porsche 911 Carrera 4.

The Sbarro Ionos never made it to production and the car remained a prototype. In 2005 another concept influenced by the Lancia Stratos appeared, this time it was called the Fenomenon Stratos. This concept was no relation to the Sbarro Ionos.

Sbarro Turbo S 20

The Sbarro Turbo S20 concept which went on show at the 2007 Geneva Motor show was a student designed concept car. The 20 students from France's Espera Sbarro design school, in conjunction with French TV show "Turbo," built the S20 concept in around three months.

The two-seat Sbarro Turbo S20 is powered by a mid-mounted 300 horsepower, 5 litre V8 taken from a Porsche 928 running through a five speed manual transmission. Other mecanical components of the Sbarro Turbo S20 come from various other vehicles including the Fiat Seicento and Smart Roadster.

The wheels of the S20 are from O.Z. Racing and measure 19" up front and 20" at the rear. Inside the Spartan cockpit Recaro racing seats can be found. The name 'Turbo S20' comes from an amalgamation of the TV show name and 20 students.
