A different approach to competing was applied to the M012. Preferring agility and efficiency while sacrificing little speed and acceleration. This was done by swapping out the previous powertrain for a lighter, yet less powerful unit. Also bringing back a 4-speed sequential gearbox and further aero sidepod development completed the package, and the M012 was born.
