    It also has butterfly doors, 19- and 20in carbon fibre wheels, not to mention a large front splitter and three-piece LED headlights. It also gets digital side mirrors and a teardrop-shaped glass roof with an aerodynamic rear fin that draws inspiration from Formula 1. Image Credit: Supplied

    The AP-0 also has an advanced LiDAR sensor which generates detailed maps of the vehicle’s surroundings. The company said this allows the car to more accurately identify potential hazards such as pedestrians, cyclists and other vehicles. It allows the car to offer a Level 3 semi-autonomous driving system, and Apex hinted it could eventually be upgraded to a Level 4 system. Image Credit: Supplied

    It’s literally carbon-fibre to the core. It uses a carbon-fibre tub and chassis, with a modular spaceframe and a centre spine for increased rigidity. Image Credit: Supplied

    When it comes to performance, Apex offers some impressive stats for the AP-0 concept. It’s rear-wheel-drive only and features a 90-kilowatt battery pack mounted in the floor to generate up to 650 horsepower. Image Credit: Supplied

    The entire car weighs 1,200kg and as such, Apex claims it has 560Nm of torque and can reach 100kph in just 2.3 seconds. It also has a driving range of 515km. Image Credit: Supplied

    Apex says the AP-0 produces exceptional downforce for impressive handling without the need for big spoilers, thanks in part to the big vertical fin which also forms part of the distinctive cross-shaped taillight. In fact, Apex found this look so distinctive that it became the company’s logo. Image Credit: Supplied

    Inside, it gets a square steering wheel and three-screen display for the driver. It contains a host of advanced technology and driver assist systems that can achieve Level 3 autonomy, and Apex says the infrastructure is there for Level 4 autonomy when it’s available... Image Credit: Supplied
