Praga Accelerates Hypercar Production: The 700hp V6 Bohema

Praga, the renowned Czech automaker, has transitioned from concept to reality as it begins the production phase for its high-performance hypercar, the Bohema. First unveiled in 2022, this road-legal driver’s car is set to deliver an exhilarating experience with its powerful engine and lightweight construction.

The heart of the Bohema is a potent 3.8-litre V6 engine borrowed from the Nissan GT-R, featuring a dry sump system and upgraded turbochargers. This powerhouse generates an impressive 700hp and 724Nm of torque, promising an adrenaline-packed ride for enthusiasts. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission.

Designed with a focus on lightweight performance, the Bohema’s carbon fibre construction keeps its weight below 1,000kg. This emphasis on minimising weight is aimed at making the hypercar a formidable force on the racetrack.

Praga’s rigorous testing program has taken the Bohema to renowned racetracks, including Spa-Francorchamps, the Red Bull Ring, and the Nurburgring. Professional drivers like F1 and IndyCar star Romain Grosjean and former Stig Ben Collins have provided valuable feedback during these tests.

With a price tag of €1.36 million (RM6,974,587), the Bohema caters to hypercar collectors seeking a combination of power, performance, and exclusivity. Handcrafted at Praga’s Czech Republic factory, the company plans to commence deliveries in the first half of the year. Although production will span four years, Praga intends to maintain exclusivity by limiting the number of units produced. The Bohema represents Praga’s commitment to delivering an unparalleled driving experience to a select group of passionate automotive enthusiasts.
