RUF CTR ANNIVERSARY
Project coordination and comprehensive development of the homage to the RUF Yellowbird.
The resurrection of a high-performance sports car based on pure lightweight construction principles – a success story that we had the privilege of significantly shaping with the overall development of the RUF CTR Anniversary.
The combination of purist retro aesthetics and ultra-modern lightweight technology makes it one of the most exclusive high-performance sports cars of the past decade.
As the engineering service provider, we were responsible for the development and production of:
-
Carbon chassis with integrated roll cage
-
Front and rear frames in space-frame construction
-
Suspension in pushrod configuration
-
Powertrain integration and cooling system
-
Exterior, including tooling
Additionally, we took on the entire project coordination as well as supplier management.

Development and prototype construction of this high-performance sports car in just 18 months
In this complete vehicle project, we went beyond just overall project coordination and vehicle development: In our in-house workshop, the prototype vehicle was created, and we ensured its quality through extensive driving tests before delivery.
From the initial concept to the prototype delivery to our customer, we needed only 18 months.
The comprehensive engineering process included:
-
Package development
-
Styling development, including layout and consideration of homologation guidelines (ergonomics, crash safety, pedestrian protection, and more)
-
Concept, styling, design, simulation, and production of:
-
Bodywork, including CFRP monocoque
-
Chassis
-
Exterior & interior
-
E/E systems
-
Drivetrain integration and cooling concept
-
-
Vehicle assembly & system tests
-
Procurement of components and systems
-
Supplier management
-
Prototype development
-
Vehicle testing and validation
The result: An ultra-lightweight performance sports car with exceptional driving pleasure and impressive performance: 1,310 kg | 400 HP | 4.1 s (0-100 km/h) | max. 300 km/h
