2015-2018 ETK K-Series
The K-Series is a modern German 2-seater sports coupe produced by ETK. It has struts in front and multi-link rear suspension. It features all of the same engine options as the 800, but because the car is smaller and lighter, it is faster and more agile. The devs have said that more variants are coming in the future.
This car is closely related to the ETK 800 Series, and looks to take inspiration from the BMW Z4 and the Mercedes SLK models.
Even though it is released as of 0.5.6, the K Series is not completely finished and will have more variations in the future with more engine options. We do not know what these will be, but we think they might be a N/A V8 and a turbocharged V8.
