4 After a remarkable career as a motorbike and racing car driver, Guy Ligier chose to become a manufacturer of racing cars. Five years in endurance, notably marked by a second place with the Ligier JS2 at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1975, preceded a 20-year adventure in Formula 1. Between 1976 and 1996, Ligier won the title of World Vice Champion in 1980, fifty podiums and nine victories, including the one for Olivier Panis in the streets of Monaco. In 2004, Ligier made his comeback in endurance and the CN era began with the JS 49, JS 51 and JS 53 models. More than 40 years after its creation, the legendary brand is experiencing a revival through Onroak Automotive. This collaboration has already given birth to the Ligier JS P2 and JS P3, names chosen out of respect of the history of the brand: a way to feed the future of Onroak Automotive with the glorious sporting past of Ligier.

5 LIGIER & ONROAK AUTOMOTIVE Founded at the end of the 1960s by Guy Ligier, the eponymous brand of race cars is a reference in motorsport, in Endurance and Formula 1. More than forty years after its creation, the brand has begun a new page of its history that it is now writing with Onroak Automotive. Based at the strategic sites of Le Mans and Magny-Cours, Onroak Automotive, French manufacturer of race cars, is born from the joining of two passions of its president Jacques Nicolet: the passion of motorsport, especially the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the passion of entrepreneurship. Having had a success with the OAK Racing team, Jacques Nicolet decided to take advantage of the experience and knowledge of the technology and the competition to develop a genuine entity dedicated to the conception and production of sport-prototypes. Onroak Automotive offers a range of Ligier sport-prototypes CN, LM P3 and LM P2 that permit everyone to find the ideal model to integrate a category or climb up to the next rung of the endurance pyramid. Their sport-prototypes are entered in various endurance series around the world by many teams who benefit from an impressive active and personalised support service from the manufacturer.

7 START A CAREER WITH THE JS 53 EVO Equipped with a 2-litre HONDA engine that produces 255 bhp and a sequential SADEV six-speed gearbox, the Ligier JS 53 EVO 2 is now offering, since 2015, a kit to give a greater aerodynamic efficiency, which notably improves the speed in the corners and limits tyre degradation. A new electronic management system also improves the driving comfort. Due to its performance and security, a perfect balance and a real ease of driving, the Ligier JS 53 EVO 2 is ideal for young professional and gentlemen drivers in order to discover the specificity of sport-prototype endurance series. Its sales price depends on the series in which it is racing and starts at VAT. The Ligier JS 53 EVO 2 benefits from the experience of the JS 49, JS 51 and JS 53 models which have collected many successes over the years.

9 THE JS P3 JOINS THE LIGIER RANGE Already in the LM P2 category, with the JS P2, and in CN with the JS 53 EVO 2, Ligier is now adding to its range with the JS P3, a sport-prototype for the LM P3 category. The Ligier JS P3 fully benefits from its kinship with the Ligier JS P2, notably concerning the design and the aerodynamic characteristics which are inspired by the latter: a choice of efficiency.
