The Glickenhaus SCG 007 LMH is a sports prototype racing car built by Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus for the Le Mans Hypercar category in the FIA World Endurance Championship.

History

In 2018, the FIA and ACO approved the new Le Mans Hypercar regulation as a replacement for the LMP1 regulation in the World Endurance Championship that would come into effect from the 2021 season.[6][7] On July 27, 2018, Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus was the first manufacturer to join the new category, as well as officially presenting the car they would race with, the Glickenhaus SCG 007 LMH.[8]

The No. 709 at the 2023 24 Hours of Le Mans

In October of 2023, it was announced that Glickenhaus would not return to the WEC in 2024.[9]

Development

The car is developed by Podium Advanced Technologies.[1] The car uses a 3.5L twin-turbocharged V8 developed by Pipo Moteurs;[10] the engine is based on Pipo's existing inline-4s used in the World Rally Championship.[3]
