Donkervoort is Expanding to Germany

Donkervoort, known for creating some truly ferocious and lightweight sports cars, has expanded its operations to Germany with the upcoming opening of Donkervoort Automobielen GmbH at the Bilster Berg Drive Resort in Germany.

The new facility will open up in spring of next year and with the opening of this German Donkervoort arm, the sports car manufacturer hopes it will be just the first in a long effort to further expand the European network of Donkervoort.

As a reminder, the Bilster Berg Drive Resort racetrack was officially opened on June 1st. The Bilster Berg Drive Resort is the very first circuit to open in the western federal provinces of Germany for over 80 years and will provide Germans and any other interested European users an alternative to the legendary Nurburgring. The demanding track is built on an 84 hectare property and measures 4.2 kilometres in length which follows the natural topography of the land perfectly.
