The 1:8-scale set includes a working V8 piston engine, a nine-speed sequential gearbox with a rotating gear indicator, Triplex suspension and a manual Ghost Mode system that simultaneously opens the dihedral doors, front hood and rear clamshell. The model follows previous Ultimate Car Concept Series releases based on Porsche, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Ferrari and McLaren. Alongside the retail set, the LEGO Group constructed a full-size replica using 327,906 LEGO Technic elements over 391 days and more than 9,400 hours of assembly. The life-size vehicle underwent aerodynamic, braking and suspension testing before reaching 111 km/h, exceeding the previous speed record for a full-scale LEGO build.
