Goodwood, that hallowed ground of British motoring, is about to get a lot spicier. And no, I'm not talking about a chorizo-laden picnic basket. Hispano Suiza, the revived Spanish automaker with more history than your grandma's attic, is bringing its electrifying Carmen Sagrera hypercar to the Festival of Speed. Where do we even start?
There’s no other way to put it. Carmen Sagrera is an absolute beast. Beautiful, but still a beast. Under that sculpted carbon fiber body, you'll find the heart of a true thoroughbred. With four motors cranking out a combined 1,114 horsepower, it's got more oomph than a bull on a caffeine drip. Its electric heart says it all - this Spanish señorita is all about performance. Hispano Suiza claims it can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in a mere 2.6 seconds, and it'll keep on galloping to a top speed of 180 mph. That's so much faster than a runaway paella pan, trust me.

Carmen Sagrera is no shrinking violet. She stretches a glorious 196.8 inches long, wider than a matador's cape at 83.8 inches, and stands a proud 48 inches tall. But don't let those dimensions fool you because this ain't no lumbering land yacht. It's a sleek, aerodynamic beast designed to slice through the air like a well-aimed banderilla.
But this ain't just about raw power. This is about exclusivity. Hispano Suiza is only building 14 of these beauties, and each one is a handcrafted work of art. Think of it as the bespoke suit of the hypercar world, tailored to your every whim. And with a price tag of $2.2 million, it's definitely not for the faint of wallet.
So, what about the Hill climb? Well, sadly, Carmen Sagrera won't be tackling the famous Goodwood Hill. It'll be on display. But fear not, my petrolheads, because Hispano Suiza is bringing another electric stallion to the party.
The Carmen Boulogne, a slightly less powerful but equally exclusive hypercar, will be taking on the hill climb challenge. With a mere 1,001 horsepower and a price tag of $1.9 million, it's practically a bargain compared to Sagrera. But seriously, this car is still a force to be reckoned with. It's got the agility of a flamenco dancer and the acceleration of a rocket-powered chorizo.

You'll see the Carmen Sagrera in all its electrifying glory, and you might even catch a glimpse of the Carmen Boulogne conquering the hill. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go recharge my Spanish metaphors - Hispano Suiza exhausted my supplies. Until next time, keep it electrifying!
