The Yes! roadster will be sold in the U.S. this year as company plans to display its model at the next Chicago Motor Show.

Despite its characteristics, the Yes! roadster is not British but German. Do not expect a power feast as engineers have focused on weight reduction. The Yes! only weighs 1,960lbs on the scales. Powered by the Audi 3.2-litre V6 petrol engine, the Yes! offers an attractive power-to-weight ratio of 281bhp per tonne.

If you’re still unsatisfied by the figure, the Yes! will be soon offered with a turbocharged engine whose power will reach 355bhp. With a weight of 2,050lbs, the power-to-weight ratio will jump from 281 to 382bhp per tonne. With such figures, the turbocharged Yes! will run the 0-60mph in 3.9 seconds just like the future SL 65 Black Series and will have a top speed of 174mph.
