2019 Mulgari ICON03

MULGARI BMW ICON03

ICON03 is the embodiment of a sports car, with a captivating performance, inspired balance, exhilarating exhaust note, yet uncompromised ride quality. These are a few of ICON03's assets - the culmination of months of development.
Mulgari's motorsport-inspired development process focussed on the drivetrain, chassis technologies and weight-saving measures. Our intention was to create a car full of purist driving dynamics, a homage to the great Bavarian driving machines, past and present. The result is an authentic, uncompromising driving pleasure with purist character – an ICON. Raw yet refined steering, responsive performance and analogue feel through the controls – all traits that ensure the driver is left with no doubts, building trust in the car. Mulgari's ethos aims to create a distinctly raw driving experience, to deliver the driver to a state of euphoria - a oneness with the machine.




Performance comes in the form of the three-litre BMW B58 turbocharged engine delivering over 400 ft-lb of smooth linear performance. Outright performance of the engine hasn't been a focus we believe that under 500 bhp is where a true drivers car lies, plenty of power but more importantly power that can be used. True driving requires a bond between driver and machine, power in the right place builds this trust and encourages a more eager and engaging driving experience. Performance is nothing without sound, the sound being one of the most engaging parts. Market leaders Akrapovic were the only choice, their exhaust technology means that the full exhaust system delivers, power, performance, sound and legality on the road.

Chassis and suspension have been a major focus when developing the ICON03. With the help from our technical partners, we have delivered a chassis and suspension system, that allows for compliant road holding characteristics, comfort, matched to a sharp, responsive on track ability, an important factor found in some of the driving greats. Front tyre width is now up to 255 cross section with a 275 rear providing traction for the 435 lb ft of torque. Late July we will be setting a lap time at the Nürburgring which will be shown in a documentary we are filming.



Working with some of the best automotive suppliers in the industry has given the ICON03 the performance and reliability to perform with the best. Útilising the latest 3D Printing technologies as well as state of the art carbon fibre means the ICON03 is built to perform. Recaro, KW Automotive, Peron, Akrapovic to name a few provide industry leading components vital to the engineering performance of the car.

Mulgari has provided customers and OEM's with aftersales experience since 2011. The ICON program grew from this experience and what we have been delivering. To us ICON's are not about outright speed or grabbing the big news headlines, ICON is a lifestyle, cars for drivers, cars that serve a purpose, cars that deliver to the senses. These senses can be reached with a purity, not related to spending, related to how they make you feel. ICON02 embodies this in its cheeky hot hatch nature, bringing back memories of the earlier less technical hatches. We endeavour to extend this ethos to the ICON03, capturing all that makes a sports car great.
