RUF’s CTR3 with a 1000 hp Flat-Eight

Published in engineswapdepot.com

RUF Automobile debuts a very special CTR3 test vehicle at 2026 Goodwood Festival of Speed. RUF normally builds the CTR3 with a twin-turbo 3.7 L CTR38 flat-six. However this CTR3 was stretched 100 mm to accommodate a special power plant. In the back of the car is RUF’s new twin-turbo 4.8 L “B8” flat-eight paired to a six-speed manual transaxle. The flat-eight motor is capable of 1,000 hp (735 kW) and 1,000 Nm (737 Nm) of torque. Hopefully RUF will release more details on the motor.
