Praga stablemates let loose! Bohema hypercar and ZS 800 motorcycle complete UK road test programmes
The road-legal, 700hp Praga Bohema hypercar and the limited edition, lightweight Praga ZS 800 motorcycle have been presented together for the first time in the UK as part of a promotional and road-test programme.
The Bohema production prototype featuring the final bodywork, brake setting and transmission upgrades, and production ready ZS 800 have undertaken daily tests and presentations from Premier GT the luxury and performance car specialist based in West Sussex.
This marks the first appearance of the Bohema on British soil since July 2023, and the final outing of the Bohema prototype before the first customer cars leave the factory in the coming months as European and US customer handovers begin.
Developed by the same team of specialist Praga engineers, and hand-built by the same assembly crew, the Bohema hypercar and the ZS 800 motorcycle showcase the Czech manufacturer’s philosophy for ultra lightweight design (weighing less than 1,000kg and 142kg respectively), advanced engineering technology and handcrafted details, derived from almost 120 years of unbroken manufacturing history.
Mark Harrison, Sales and Marketing Director at Praga Cars, said; “The UK itinerary for the Bohema and ZS 800 has been relentless, but very productive. Praga is a small, nimble team of enthusiasts, so we have packed in as much as possible to three sunny weeks in June. In amongst the planned road test programme and media and prospect test drives and rides, we have been invited to The Bike Shed, Rolls-Royce, The Shmuseum and Zach’s Garage, so to say we’ve had a successful visit is an understatement. A maximum 10 per cent of the Bohema production will be available to UK buyers – in right-hand-drive – and this tour has started the ball rolling here. Well done to the Praga and Premier GT teams and now we head off to light up Eau Rouge and The Nurburgring!”
David Trigg, Owner and Director of Premier GT, said; “My team and I are very proud to have been chosen by Praga for the UK unveiling of the Praga ZS 800 and to manage the latest test drive programme for the Bohema hypercar. I am passionate about both motorcycles and high-performance cars, and many of Premier GT’s clients share this same appreciation for premium quality, creative design and exceptional performance, not forgetting the pure joy of the ride, whether on two wheels or four.”
As part of Praga’s European tour, the Bohema joined an exclusive road convoy with Hypra Lusso to the Goodwood Breakfast Club at the start of the month before appearing with the ZS 800 at Silverstone circuit on 18th June at the SCD Secret Meet, where the Bohema made its first appearance on track at the home of British motorsport. On 28th-30th June the Bohema returns to Spa-Francorchamps as part of the 100th anniversary of the 24 Hours of Spa, before heading to the Nürburgring with Curbstone Events and the GT1 Sports Club, where the Bohema will showcase its aerodynamics, high speed cornering and phenomenal braking performance.
