EQUUS first drew the inspiration for this mythical saga from the nostalgia of the 60’s and 70’s and those powerful images personified by actors such as Steve Mc Queen and his love affair with the automobile. These images of legendary vehicles that appeared in films such as "Bullitt" and "Gone in 60 seconds" and lived on in TV with shows like "Starsky and Hutch", "The Dukes of Hazard" and other action adventures that continue to keep new generations falling in love with the stars of these shows (the magical MUSCLE CARS), aroused our dreams and spurred our passion for the automobile.
In technological collaboration with Panoz Auto Development Company, first American automobile manufacturer in the world specializing in limited series and high performance cars, EQUUS-Automotive , the new and prestigious brand is now going to manufacture the reincarnation of the real fastback muscle car (FMC).
Symbolized by a unicorn, EQUUS-Automotive innovates in the conception of its vehicles through the encounter of the highest motorsport technology and a strong design showing powerful lines embodying the automotive dream.
Provided with high performance loyal to the tradition of nostalgic American muscle cars equipped with powerful engines, respecting all the international technical and safety standards, this car is nothing else but the materialization of the dream to possess a unique piece, a revival of the 60’ and 70’ feeling, combining luxury, tradition and modernity: - a true Dream On Wheels (DOW).
During the early 1930’s, Automobile designs included "teardrop streamlining" at the rear which was similar to what would become the "fastback" signature 25 years later. The term fastback was first recognized as a definition by Merriam Webster in 1954*. Even if the Pontiac GTO 1964 launched the great history of Muscle Car, the first American fastbacks models of the modern era were the Plymouth Barracuda of 1964, the AMC Marlin of 1965, the 1966 Dodge Charger and the 1967 Ford Mustang. This fastback muscle car (FMC) shape is the most popular of all the American muscle cars today.
