The Aspark Owl (Japanese: アスパーク OWL) is an all-electric battery-powered sports car manufactured by Japanese engineering firm Aspark (アスパーク), under development since 2018, with the goal of making the fastest accelerating electric car. It will be built by Manifattura Automobili Torino (MAT) in Italy. Aspark plans a production run of 50 vehicles, with a list price of €2.5 million. The OWL was publicly unveiled in concept form at the 2017 Frankfurt Auto Show,[2][3][4][5] and the production version was unveiled in November 2019 at the Dubai International Motor Show.[6]

Specifications and performance
The OWL has carbon fibre body work built around a carbon fibre monocoque chassis weighing 120 kg (265 lb). A stainless steel support structure is incorporated in the roof to increase the bodywork's strength. Changes to the bodywork from the concept include the addition of wing mirrors, an active rear wing and a redesigned rear glass. The car features double wishbone suspension with hydraulic dampers and torque vectoring for improved handling. Stopping power is handled by a carbon-ceramic braking system with 10-piston front calipers and 4-piston rear calipers.[6]
It has been claimed that the OWL can accelerate from 0-97 km/h (60 mph) in 1.69 seconds, 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 1.9 seconds, 0-299 km/h (186 mph) in 10.6 seconds, and can attain a top speed of 400 km/h (249 mph), which would make it the fastest accelerating production car in the world.[7]
