1971 Albisa Hugar ARH Condor
Project ARH Condor, conceived in 1969, was the result of cooperation between Jose Ramon Almagro and Antonio Bienvenida, the directors of the company Albisa (an official dealer of Simca-Chrysler), and Ricardo Huerta, a car designer.
The prototype was shown at an exhibition in Barcelona. The body was made of fiberglass. The exhibition showed that the production of such prototypes is a good way to promote the brand and, at the same time, develop technical decisions for the future mass production.
The next step was participation in regional car rallies. One of the pilots became Miguel Righetto. But the car was crashed in 1972. The car never went into serial production, since it was not commonly approved as a type of vehicle.
A total of about 8 cars were produced, including racing prototypes. The refusal to approve this car as a type of vehicle was a real blow for the company, taking into consideration the amount of effort spent on the development.
