Funke & Will AG, Grossenhain
Deutschland 2000 bis heute
YES-Roadster (entstanden aus eine Diplomarbeit an der FH-Köln):
Reihenvierzylinder Otto-Motor, 1781 ccm, 210 kW (286 PS), 330 Nm
Abgasturbolader, Heckantrieb, vmax 264 km/h, 4.1 s für 0-100 km/h
Each YES! (an acronym for Young Engineers Sportcar) is hand assembled
and built one at a time in a modern aircraft hangar on the outskirts of
Dresden, Germany. The company is owned by Funke & Will AG and was formed
when two engineering students at Cologne Technical University got together and
decided they did not wish to complete their studies by preparing ordinary
dissertations - they decided to build a car. Each YES! is built with its
prospective owner’s physical and aesthetic dimensions in mind. Seat height
and pedal placement are assembled to suit, and interior trim and paint schemes
are quite flexible as well. Even engine output is open to discussion.
Speaking of engine output, the YES! employs a VWAG-sourced 1.8T engine tuned to
produce a very healthy 280+ hp and is properly situated amidships and mated to
a 5-speed transaxle. So much power in such a light vehicle should yield
supercar performance, and according to YES! these expectations are fully
realized – they claim the 0-62 mph sprint is accomplished in 4.2 seconds.
