Brabham does not build many cars like the Brabham BT62: a 2-door coupé with 5.4 L Ford Modular naturally aspirated V8, built from 2018 to 2024 as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market.
Where it came from
The Brabham BT62 is a mid-engine track-day car produced by Australian car manufacturer Brabham Automotive. It was introduced in 2018 with deliveries starting at the end of that year. A planned production of only 70 cars was intended, in honour of the company's 70 year heritage in racing.
Under the skin
Under the skin sits 5.4 L Ford Modular naturally aspirated V8; other versions carried different engines, listed in the specification table below. Kerb weight is 972 kg. The gearbox is a 6-speed Holinger sequential manual. The layout matters: the engine sits behind the driver and ahead of the rear axle, which puts the mass in the middle of the car and is why mid-engined cars change direction the way they do. The wheelbase is 2695 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
In context
Where it sits in Brabham's history is not in doubt: it was built at Adelaide, South Australia, Australia. On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Tesla Model 3, the Porsche Taycan, the Chevrolet Bolt. Nearby in the Brabham catalogue sit the Brabham BT18 and the Brabham BT43.
