(from RUF Press Release) The RUF R Kompressor is the latest RUF creation. The body styling of the RUF R Kompressor merges the aesthetics of a plain and discreet line with pure sportiness. Whereas the front of the R Kompressor expresses pure dynamics, the design of the rear is more unobtrusive. The spoiler rear hood and the rear wing are made of high-quality Kevlar-Carbon. Aerodynamically optimized RUF side mirrors complete the optical design of the R Kompressor.

The interior is conservative - as it is usual for RUF vehicles. The RUF instruments with green scaling make the classic flair. Even in fast driven turns the RUF bucket seats offer very good side support. The RUF sport steering wheel, the RUF gear knob, the RUF aluminium pedal set and the foot rest finish the sportive and elegant interior.

Another aesthetic detail are the 19ТТ wheels in the classic RUF style. At the front axle the width of the wheels is 8.5Ф and they are equipped with 255/35 ZR 19 Pirelli tyres. 11Ф wide wheels and 305/30 ZR 19 Pirelli tyres are used at the rear axle. The high performance RUF brakes are fitted with 4-piston-aluminium-callipers and 330 mm ventilated and drilled cast iron disks in the front and 330 millimetres and 4-pistons-calipers in the rear.

The RUF 3.8 litre Kompressor engine is a 6 cylinder 24 valve engine which is equipped with a Kompressor and two water-cooled intercoolers. This engine offers the best acceleration, good torque and high top speed. The impressive performance and the powerful torque constantly present at all engine speeds. The basis of the supercharged engine is the centrifugal Kompressor with a planetary gear box. This supercharger works like a mechanic turbo charger which is operated by a v-belt. The maximum boost is 0.6 bar. The engine has an aluminium intake manifold which was developed by RUF with two integrated intercoolers, optimized injection valves, a lower base compression, sport catalytic converters with greater performance and a newly adjusted electronic engine management system. Both integrated water-cooled intercoolers are supported by an electronic pump with a cooling fluid from the additional water cooler at the front spoiler.

The 3.8 litre supercharged engine of the RUF R Kompressor achieves 435 hp (320 kW) at 7,000 rpm and has a maximum torque of 347 lb ft (470 Nm) at 5,000 rpm.

The RUF R Kompressor accelerates in 4.1 seconds from 0 Ц 62 mph (0 Ц 100 kph) and 13.5 seconds from 0 Ц 125 mph (0 Ц 200 kph). Top speed, depending on the gear transmission ratio, is 189 mph (302 kph).
