TR01: Game-changing all-carbon monocoque

Leveraging extensive motorsport and F1 expertise to offer the world’s most affordable and adaptable carbon fibre monocoque - Lightweight, stiff, versatile, EuroNCAP-ready, cost-effective.

It’s kinda hard to fathom why, to date, there hasn’t been one of these available before. No surprises, it all comes down to money. By cutting the cost of obtaining this kit by almost 50 per cent, Dash’s chassis solution not only opens the door for accessibility in hobbyist projects, but also saves time and cost for professional teams – whether in racing or road vehicle programmes.

For professional motorsport teams, supercar OEMs, and dedicated enthusiasts, developing a carbon chassis is resource intensive and extremely difficult. How do we know? Because we were once in the very same position. Seeing this glaring gap in the market, we used our in-house experience in high-performance composite design and motorsport engineering to develop an accessible, adaptable carbon fibre monocoque, the TR01.

Key features and specifications

  • Stiffness: 35,000Nm/Deg

  • Weight: 48 kilograms

  • Priced from £30,000

  • Compatibility: ICE, BEV, and hybrid; adaptable to customer requirements.

Applications & versatility

The TR01's versatility makes it suitable for two-seat vehicles that require a lightweight and stiff carbon monocoque. While the design has been standardised, it can be adapted to customer requirements, making it an ideal solution for hypercar, supercar, and motorsport projects.

Quality & safety

Engineered and manufactured as a large, single carbon component, the TR01 meets rigorous performance, quality, and consistency standards. Developed in conjunction with Composite Engineering Solutions to meet EuroNCAP test standards and provide exceptional crash protection. Cost-effective should not mean compromises.

Expertise behind the product

Dash's innovation stems from extensive in-house expertise in design, engineering, and manufacturing. Leveraging computer-aided engineering and design, composites understanding, advanced additive manufacturing, and more, the TR01 benefits from Dash’s long history of collaboration with high-profile motorsport teams and programmes.

From the CEO, Tim Robathan

“The TR01 chassis opens new possibilities for niche automotive manufacturers, and larger international OEMs, by offering an affordable, versatile, lightweight, and high-stiffness carbon monocoque chassis. It offers huge time and cost savings without compromising performance. The TR01 is an industry-disrupting solution that challenges traditional carbon chassis production, making high-performance monocoques far more accessible.”
