Arriner Hussar. Supercar from Poland
“Our warriors are easy to count, like these grains, but try to chew them,” said the envoy of Jan III Sobieski to the vizier, who sent the king a pot of poppies depicting an innumerable Turkish army.
He handed Kara Mustafa a pot of pepper. The event took place near Vienna in 1683. The battle involved, among others, 24 banners of the hussars, the most famous cavalry formation and the main striking force of the troops of the Commonwealth. It is named after the Polish supercar, which was introduced this year in a high-performance GT version.
The legend is ready. In a world of six-figure cars, this is important. Ferrari has racing and the memory of the Enzo character, a Lamborghini bullfight and an unfinished duel with a Ferrari, and the lesser-known Laraki has a good address in Casablanca. In the XNUMXth century, the hussars were known as the most dangerous cavalry in the world. It's good for associations and good for a fast car. By the way, the manufacturer Arrinera also has a decent address, although this “zest” will be appreciated primarily by Warsaw residents and lovers of the work of Agnieszka Osiecka. Arrinera SA is headquartered in Saska Camp.
The Arrinera brand is a combination of the Basque "arintzea" - streamlined and the Italian "vero" - real. Easy to pronounce and sound good. Its creators followed the "insignificant" but catchy Opel Vectra and Solaris model names, whose humble creator undoubtedly contributes to the international success of the Polish manufacturer, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.

The car was born in 2008 and was involved in a scandal suspected of plagiarism. However, the court ruled that this and other accusations against the manufacturer were unfounded. As is often the case in such cases, a pinch of sensation only served Arrinera. Successive improvements to the car at different stages of development paved the way. Arrinera is the work of Polish engineers. Its development was attended, in particular, by specialists from the Warsaw University of Technology and Lee Noble, a British designer who founded Noble Automotive Ltd in 1999 and Fenix Automotive in 2009. He has more than a dozen exotic fast cars to his credit, and his recipe for success is a light and rigid space frame, a powerful engine and an aerodynamically perfect body.
This is how Arrinera was built. The GT model, due to make its racing debut this year, is followed by a road variant. Remember that the most famous Italian brands started with sports: Ferrari and Maserati. The Hussarya GT has a space frame made from BS4 T45 high-strength tubular steel, developed over 60 years ago for the aviation industry. Various types of it were used, including on Spitfire and Hurricane aircraft. It is currently the favorite material of racing car manufacturers. The body is made of carbon fiber, while the floor and interior elements are made of Kevlar. The low silhouette is armed with deflectors that press the machine to the surface, and air grippers that cool the centrally located engine and sensitive organs of the monster, including the brakes. The characteristic “night” on the roof feeds the intake system of the engine. The floor is flat, which greatly affects the aerodynamic properties. The Arrinera has been tested in a tunnel, so you can expect a heavily armed hull to actually work. The interior of the GT version is distinguished by a strict, unobtrusive decor, and everything is conducive to fast driving. The car weighs only 1150 kg.
