The Ginetta G40 is a sports racing car introduced in 2010 replacing the G20, and initially available in two versions, the G40R, and the race version, the G40, which is available in two specifications; one of which is the G40 Challenge, the other is the G40 Junior, At launch, the car used a 1.8-litre Ford Zetec-based inline-four engine, generating a power output of 140 hp and driving through a 5-speed gearbox, with the car weighing 850 kg, the engine in the most recent version generate 165 hp, weighs 800kg and drives through 6-speed Quaife sequential gearboxes

 

In 2010, Ginetta decided to cancel plans to produce a road-going version of the bigger Ginetta G50, and instead built a road-going variant of the G40, named G40R The race car's 1.8-litre Zetec engine was replaced with a modified 2.0-litre Mazda MZR engine, generating a power output of 175 hp and shares the 6-speed manual gearbox of the Mazda MX5

 

In addition the Ginetta Junior Championship of the G40 named G40 Junior utilizes a restricted 100 hp of the Ford Zetec engine, to comply with MSA

 

The Ginetta G40 Cup Series is a natural progression for slightly more experienced drivers, and the next step on the ladder for last years G40 Junior competitors.

 

This version of the G40 races on slick tyres, and has uprated suspension.
