Lazareth Wazuma V8F Quad – Engine By Ferrari

The Lazareth Wazuma is based on the Wazuma R1, a similar model but with a Yamaha R1 engine. Instead of the motorcycle unit, the Wazuma V8F features a 3.0-liter Ferrari V8 engine mated to a six-speed sequential gearbox sourced from a BMW M3.

 

The V8 engine produces around 250 hp and has been modified to accommodate the injection system of two Yamaha R1 engines. The electronic management of the gearbox is completely revised, with gear selection being made from the handlebars.

 

The Wazuma V8F Matt Edition features modified Momo (+Power) rims with Brembo calipers and four 324mm (12.7in) brake discs. The quad has a very specific suspension system consisting of four horizontal shock absorbers, made‐to‐measure by EMC. It rides on enormous wheels shod with slick tyres: 285‐30ZR18 for the front and 315‐30ZR18 for the rear.

 

 

Taking into account that the engine produces around 250 horsepower and that the quad only weighs 650 kg (1,433 lbs), performance is ballistic: top speed is around 200 mph (322 km/h). One could only reach that speed on a drag strip, as the one-off vehicle is not street legal in France.
