The oldest carmaker nobody's heard of — a half-price Valkyrie rival, road-legal, from Czechia.
The Praga Bohema is a road-legal, track-focused hypercar from Prague's Praga Cars, a company founded in 1907. It is built around a carbon-fibre monocoque with carbon bodywork and weighs under 1,000 kg wet. Power comes from a Nissan GT-R-derived 3.8-litre twin-turbo V6, redeveloped by Litchfield Motors with a dry-sump system, driving the rear wheels through a six-speed Hewland sequential gearbox.
The Bohema was unveiled in 2022 and confirmed for production in 2023, with first customer deliveries beginning at the end of 2024. It is positioned as a genuine driver's machine engineered for circuit performance while remaining road-registerable.
The Bohema is a rare thing: a small-volume, road-legal hypercar with a genuine racing philosophy — light, aerodynamically serious and mechanically simple where it matters — from a marque whose motorsport heritage predates most of the industry. It arrives at a fraction of the price of its Valkyrie / T.50 / SP3 peers, which reframes the class.

First customer car delivered in December 2024 at approximately €1.36M. Verify per-year build progression. |
Modern hypercars are allocation-driven. Verify build slot, factory client-register status, delivery paperwork and specification against factory documentation. For the Bohema, verify build slot and delivery status via the Praga Cars client register. The road-legal homologation is jurisdiction-specific — confirm registerability in the destination market before committing.
A proper pre-purchase inspection covers cold-start behaviour, hybrid-system health where applicable, undertray-off chassis inspection, brake and tyre condition, and — for track-oriented cars — a review of consumable and lifed-component status. Factory or authorised inspection is strongly preferred over independent assessment.
Use a paint-depth gauge and a lift inspection. Confirm PPF history and any accident record; low-mileage cars still show stone-chip and track-debris damage that materially affects presentation and pricing.
Specification, colour and factory options move values meaningfully. On programme cars, evaluate the ownership experience — support, transport, event access — alongside the car itself.
