Outside of a small rented shop in Victoria West sits what could be the next Canadian supercar.The dream? To create a supercar, built on Vancouver Island, that people can assemble from their homes from a kit.
After years of research and design, the project finally took off in the last four years, with Taylor moving to a dedicated shop, hiring design and engineering staff and creating the Arma prototype. In addition to the difficulty of creating a car from scratch, the team also had to find a way to make sure that the vehicle was easy enough to put together at home — which created its own challenges.
The prototype is not quite finished yet, but it is road-legal, and Taylor and the team are using the car as a rolling test bed before starting to sell the kits to the general public.
