Zenvo Automotive was founded with only one goal in mind - to produce a unique hand built supercar. The research and development for the prototype started in 2004. The final prototype has now been completed and the car has entered it’s last stages of performance testing . In 2009, Zenvo Automotive will start a series production of the car, named the Zenvo ST1. It will be a limited edition with only 15 cars to be built and sold to specially approved customers.
For the engineers and designers within Zenvo Automotive, a clear list of criteria was made to ensure the car would not only be a trackworthy supercar but a car that would be suitable for everyday use. The ST1 even though so powerful, is very drivable and user friendly. It retains the unique feeling of driving a handbuilt supercar while still delivering the needs of modern motoring and safety.
The car is 100% built in Denmark
From it’s impressive list of mechanical specifications to it’s striking pose the Zenvo ST1 is the result of clever danish design. All these features are blended together to form a vechicle that demands attention but remains purposeful and practical.
The development and production of our supercars takes place in our hyper modern production hall with our dedicated team of motoring enthusiasts making the Zenvo name a reality. Since we work very closely with most of our partners we try to use local suppliers. This makes us able to communicate better and to follow the developing much closer to obtain the best possible result.
Whenever possible we use local suppliers and we work closely with our business partners, enabling us to to not only source the best components but influence the development process to achieve top performance and great design solutions for the Zenvo.

The Zenvo ST1 is designed to express the excessive power and performance of the car.
The design brief from the Zenvo creators to the designers at hermann & brandt design consultancy was to design a supercar that looked like no other supercar. The design had to be aggressive mixing supercar styling with race car elements.
The design of the car is made from free flowing accelerating lines creating the shape of the wheel arches, the roof line, side line and the lower side air intake. The sharp lines are connected by muscular organic surfacing creating dramatic reflections. Contrasting the general surfacing the design features a race car inspired lower carbon splitter.
The front is designed around the hexagonal trademark Zenvo grille flanked by the large front air intakes used for brakes and engine cooling. The intakes are raked back to minimize drag and at the same time making the side impression of the car more compact.
The theme of the front is repeated in the rear which is designed around the big diffuser necessary for high speed stability. As on the front the center volume is flanked by large air exits extracting hot engine air as well as housing the exhaust and rear lights.
