    MEDIA INFORMATION 1 March 2011 SPYKER AT THE 81ST INTERNATIONAL GENEVA MOTOR SHOW: SPYKER RAMPS UP PRODUCTION WITH IMMINENT RETURN TO PRIVATE OWNERSHIP ● New era of private ownership will provide catalyst for rapid progress and development ● Deliveries of C8 Aileron to customers across the globe will start in April ● Order book extends into 2012 ● Squadron race division is developing C8 Aileron GT race car for 2012 Zeewolde, The Netherlands, 1 March 2011 – Spyker’s presence at the 81st Geneva International Motor Show comes as the brand is about to enter a new era. Soon to return to independent, private ownership, the ultra-exclusive luxury supercar brand is ramping up production of its new C8 Aileron with customer deliveries beginning in April. And its Spyker Squadron race division will return to competitive endurance racing in 2012 season with an all-new GT car. Private, independent ownership On 24 February 2011, CPP Global Holdings Ltd – a British coachbuilding specialist - signed a Memorandum of Understanding to acquire the assets of the Spyker sportscar business from Spyker Cars N.V., the EURONEXT-listed holding company which currently operates the Spyker and Saab premium automotive brands. Upon closing of the deal, Spyker will return to independent ownership with a dedicated management team, headed by founder and CEO Victor Muller, committed to rapidly progressing its business plan, which was effectively delayed for 12 months after the acquisition of Saab Automobile. The imminent deal represents the dawn of a new era for the brand, which is entering a very exciting period. With a workforce of 250 highly skilled automotive specialist designers, technicians and craftsmen, CPP boasts vast experience working with global luxury car brands such as Aston Martin and Bentley.

  • Press Release Spyker C8 Preliator NYIAS
    NORTH-AMERICAN DEBUT FOR THE SPYKER C8 PRELIATOR AT THE NEW YORK INTERNATIONAL AUTO SHOW New York, United States, 23 March 2016 - Spyker, a creator of meticulously hand-built sports cars since 2000, have returned to the New York International Automobile Show. The C8 Preliator, Spyker’s third-generation sports car, will make its North American debut at the New York International Automobile Show today. Victor R. Muller, Spyker’s Founder and Chief Executive Officer, said: ”Spyker is delighted to be back at the New York International Automobile Show to unveil the new Spyker C8 Preliator in one of its most important markets, New York. Historically Spyker has sold half of its production to the United States of America of which a very large number of cars were sold in this state through Spyker's first dealer in the USA, Manhattan Motor Cars”. "The Spyker C8 Preliator’s design represents the ultimate translation of our aviation heritage to a “road jet”, a plane without wings, reflected among others in the Head-Up Display, fitted as standard to every car. It is the epitome of our unrivaled craftsmanship. By mounting a supercharger to the Audi V8 engine we have improved the performance of the Spyker C8 Preliator significantly as compared to its predecessor and its exclusivity is warranted since we will produce a mere 50 units". "The Preliator name, which means "fighter" or “warrior” in Latin, pays tribute to that aviation heritage: Fighters are warplanes as made by Spyker between 1914 and 1918. But even more so, “Preliator” symbolises the uphill battles Spyker faced and won in the past couple of years".
