Apollo Future Mobility Group (AFMG) unveiled its first step in developing an all-new electric sportscar marque. G2J, an advanced rolling engineering prototype, has been in development for more than two years, drawing upon the group’s engineering and powertrain development expertise across Germany and Japan.
The engineering prototype is currently in advanced testing to refine and validate the key powertrain, connectivity and wider digital ecosystem technologies that will underpin AFMG’s future electric sports car products.
The Apollo Future Mobility Group is the world’s first truly global car company. It is comprised of a network of wholly-owned specialist centres of excellence in design, advanced development, engineering and powertrain design across the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and Japan respectively.
The Research and Development process for G2J and all future Group EV sportscar products will be led from the company's European R&D centre in Germany. This was established following the acquisition in 2021 of leading German automotive engineering consultancy Ideenion, based in one of Europe’s great automotive heartlands, Ingolstadt.
G2J points to a long-term commitment to building cars using the most advanced lightweight composite materials. The development programme therefore incorporates advanced testing in carbon fibre construction, hinting at the future engineering direction for AFMG electric products.
