The car is built on the next generation Oreca LMP2 chassis and uses a hybrid powertrain that pairs a single-turbocharged V6, a heavily modified version of the Mecachrome V634 engine, with standardised hybrid components from Williams Advanced Engineering, Bosch and Xtrac, and Signatech runs two cars.
