02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
No production figures recorded yet.
History
Zenvo’s own history says the ST1 was developed over six years and shown as a prototype at the 2009 Le Mans Drivers’ Parade, where it was nominated Super Car of the Year. Press reports of December 2008 had already described the car.
The 2008 press reported that only 15 cars would be built by hand in Denmark. Series production was planned to begin in 2009, and the cars were aimed at wealthy buyers, mainly outside Denmark.
