Company profile
The Apricale hydrogen fuel cell hypercar
The Apricale hypercar is the first application of Viritechs revolutionary hydrogen fuel cell technology. Our unique hydrogen powertrain enables a car as light as a petrol equivalent, and half the weight of some BEV hypercars. The light weight and agility of an ICE car combined with zero-emissions.
