The Unvieled Story of Felino cB7

Canada is fast becoming the home to a lot of start-up manufacturers. Maybe there’s
something to all that maple syrup?

For as many cars as Canada builds for Americans, its home-grown auto industry
hasn't been a player on the world stage for decades. If you want a true all-
Canadian car, there's some electric two-seaters or the Campagna T-Rex and that's
a-boot it. Here's the idea from Canadian racer Antoine Bessette to change that
perception: the Felino cB7, a V-8 powered, carbon-fiber sports car with an unusal
amount of aggression for a native of the north. Antoine describes Felino CB7 as
"purpose built for the track" that could also be street legal.

While Bessett hasn't released exact performance specs, the Felino should produce
ample speed from its GM-sourced 6.2-liter V-8, tuned to 525 hp and 489 lb.-ft. of
torque, linked to a six-speed gearbox. Aside from its unusal neo-hatchback shape
and styling, the Felino appears designed more for track time than street duty,
with unusual options like built-in race suit cooling systems.

If you’re wondering if Felino hastily prepared this vehicle by slapping on
components, dropping an engine, and drawing its design on a sheet of paper, you’d
be wrong. As a matter of fact, the company took four years to develop and build
the concept car using only the finest materials around. It’s a high-performance
vehicle that certainly looks the part, although the rear end leaves a lot to be
desired in my opinion.
The Felino CB7 was unveiled at the 2014 Montreal International Auto Show, and from
the looks of things, Felino built and developed a track racer that has the
potential to be talked about by a lot of people for a long time.Bessett says pre-
production versions will start rolling this year, with a limited but unspecified
number set for production.
