Caterham CSR175 Concept

Caterham CSR175 Concept

Caterham was one of just three non-Japanese automakers to show up to the 2009 Tokyo Auto Show. The British purveyor of superlight roadsters used the opportunity to unveil the latest variant of its Cosworth-powered CSR, the 175-horsepower CSR175. In addition to not being a Japanese offering, the CSR175 stands out as one of the few non-green car debuts at Tokyo.
The CSR175 slides in at the bottom of the CSR lineup under the CSR200 and CSR260 and is part of Caterham's efforts to expand its presence in Japan. The automaker named an exclusive importer in Japan earlier this year and now has over 15 dealers in the Land of the Rising Sun.
Its not known if this latest version of the CSR will be offered in the U.S. If it is, it will be sold without an engine as a kit car like every other Caterham due to America's stricter safety regulations.
