Beck LM 800 Sports Car
















Berne Beck Engineering & Composits GmbH from Muri near Berne in Switzerland is presenting an exciting new product at the luxury motor show in Vienna: On 10 January 2007 the new Beck LM 800 will be shown to the world’s public for the first time.
he company is a small Swiss manufacturer that has specialised in the production of top class,super sports cars. The main features here are the lightweight construction and the associated use of the most varied of low-density materials, such as aluminium, magnesium, titanium, as well as the latest plastic and composite materials – Kevlar for instance. It goes without saying that, according to Swiss tradition, the highest demands in terms of quality apply here as well.
The company gets its name from René Beck, who can look back on a history of over 20 years in the construction of prototypes and vehicles. Even when he was a schoolboy, in every free minute he was already fiddling around with home-made sports cars and working on his dream. His motto then is still the same now: „We start at the point where others have already given up.“
Much in the fields of lightweight construction and highly refined aerodynamics has been borrowed from nature, as nature always demonstrates an enormously high level of efficiency in all its „designs“. Also, some solutions have their origins in Formula 1 when it comes to both technical components and the construction methods used in the car.
The very low drag coefficient (cw value) resulted from a reduction in the cross-sectional area of the vehicle to an absolute minimum. There is no superfluous material to impede the lines, so that the consistent implementation of „form follows function” has led to a very special appearance with its own highly technically- and performance-orientated, futuristic aesthetic.
The Beck LM 800 is a car that imparts a feeling of pure enjoyment of sport from within, has optimal driving characteristics thanks to its active, electronically controlled chassis and has enormous power reserves at its disposal as a result of its very light weight. In addition, the vehicle is very easy to maintain, thanks to its modular construction and telescopic jacking system.
