We even show one of our customers installing the Sparco Rev QRT into their Peugeot 205. This seat is perfect for drivers looking for a high-quality, lightweight option that doesn’t compromise on safety or comfort.
Why Choose the Sparco REV QRT?
The Sparco REV QRT is a standout choice for several reasons:
Lightweight Design: Utilizing Sparco’s Quick Resin Technology (QRT), the REV QRT weighs in at just 7.1 kg, making it significantly lighter than traditional fiberglass seats. This weight reduction is achieved without sacrificing the seat’s rigidity and durability
Enhanced Comfort: The REV QRT includes integrated lumbar support, offering improved comfort for long racing sessions. The no-slip fabric on the shoulders and base cushion ensures you stay securely in place during intense driving
Versatility: The Sparco REV QRT combines the best features of the older Sparco Rev and Rev II models. The original Rev was designed for smaller drivers, while the Rev II catered to larger builds. The REV QRT bridges the gap, providing a versatile fit that accommodates a wide range of body types and cockpits​
Safety Features: This seat is FIA 8855-1999 approved, compatible with HANS devices, and equipped with large rear harness slots to accommodate different driver heights. These features ensure you’re safe and secure, no matter the race conditions
Understanding the Differences: Sparco Rev vs. Sparco Evo
While both the Sparco Rev and Sparco Evo bucket seats may look similar in photos, they are quite different in design and intended use. Here’s a detailed comparison to help you understand the key differences between these two popular models:
Sparco Rev QRT
- Size and Fit: The Sparco Rev is designed for smaller drivers, with a more compact shape that fits snugly. It’s ideal for drivers with up to a 32-inch waist, providing a secure fit that helps maintain proper driving posture.
- Design and Comfort: The Rev features non-slip fabric on the shoulders and cushion areas to keep the driver firmly in place during high-speed maneuvers. This model emphasizes a compact and lightweight design, making it suitable for smaller cockpits.
- Application: Given its size, the Sparco Rev is perfect for smaller cars and racing applications where space is limited and a tighter fit is preferable​
Sparco Evo QRT
- Size and Fit: The Sparco Evo series offers more options for larger drivers. It comes in three sizes: Evo (medium, up to 34-inch waist), Evo L (large, up to 36-inch waist), and Evo XL (extra-large, up to 38-inch waist). This range makes the Evo suitable for a wider variety of body types and vehicle sizes.
- Design and Comfort: The Evo is built with increased rigidity thanks to the Quick Resin Technology (QRT) manufacturing process. It also includes a low leg cushion and lumbar support to enhance comfort during long races. Non-slip fabric is strategically placed to reduce body movement and improve safety.
- Application: The Evo is versatile, making it ideal for a range of motorsport disciplines, from circuit racing to rallying. Its larger size options and advanced comfort features make it a more adaptable choice for different drivers and vehicle
