About this car **2027 CATERHAM ACADEMY** Our Dealer Principal, Ian competed in the Academy in 2021 and wrote a blog about his experience – [read about it here](https://caterhamcars.com/%22https:/krazyhorse.co.uk/blogs/just-gassin/ever-wondered-what-its-like-to-become-a-racing-driver%22) **What is the Caterham Academy?** The Caterham Academy is a unique, all-inclusive racing series designed exclusively for novice drivers. It's an 'introduction to motorsport' package that includes a road-legal race car, a race licence, technical support, the racing experience itself, and—perhaps most importantly—the guidance of the Caterham team every step of the way. 2026 saw notable updates to the Academy car, most significantly the introduction of the HORSE 1.3-litre engine, delivering approximately 130HP. This is paired with a 6-speed gearbox and a limited-slip differential. Retained is the standard chassis running on low-grip tyres—designed to help drivers learn car control. The Academy series is extremely popular, having sold out every year since its inception in 1995. To date, around 1,350 novice drivers have taken part, making their dream of becoming a race driver a reality. The Caterham Academy continues to build on its successful legacy and is widely regarded as one of Europe's most successful novice driver series. ACADEMY PACKAGE An all-inclusive championship for one price, including: - Academy race car - Motorsport UK Go-Racing pack - ARDS course - Medical - Competition licence - Technical & set-up seminars - Exclusive test day - Car control handling day - Step-by-step support from Caterham **ADDICTION WARNING – Only read on if you’re a true petrolhead.** Yes, the car and racing are incredible—but what might be even more addictive is the Caterham Paddock. Unlike some other series, in the Academy, you run your car yourself (with support from a dedicated team of Caterham technicians) alongside fellow Academy drivers in a shared paddock space. This unique environment fosters camaraderie and creates lasting friendships, as everyone embarks on this motorsport journey together. Here’s the catch: You’ll want more of all of it! **GRADUATE TO ROADSPORT** The good news? Caterham has just the solution—Roadsport. The Academy is really just a taster. After completing the season, the vast majority of entrants upgrade their cars (a minimal process for Roadsport) and sign up for another year—this time with more races, potentially new tracks, and continued support from Caterham and your Academy friends. Despite the limited modifications, the car feels significantly different to drive. Uniquely, the Academy car is built to evolve. From Academy, you can upgrade to: - Roadsport (still road legal – one year only) - 270 (multi-year eligible) - 310 (multi-year eligible) You can switch levels or stay within the same one, depending on your goals. Note: The pictures are of a previous model Academy car; future cars may look slightly different. ## VEHICLE INFORMATION - [ Additional equipment ](#) - [ Engine & Transmission ](#) - [ Exterior specification ](#) - [ Interior specification ](#) - [ Suspensions & Brakes ](#) - [ Wheels & Tyres ](#) - 6 Speed manual gearbox - 1.3 4-cylinder turbo HORSE engine - estimated 130bhp - Wavetrac Limited-slip differential - Bare metal aluminium finish - Black nosecone - Black wings - MSA approved roll cage and padding - finished in Black - Lowered floors (includes driver and passenger side) - Side impact protection - Battery master cut-off switch - FIA approved rain light - MSA compliant tow straps - Quick-release MOMO leather steering wheel - Tillett Seats - Driver’s 6 point race harness - Push button start - Driver’s arm restraints - Plumbed in fire extinguisher - Academy specific tyres - 13” Apollo alloy wheels - Academy ‘Road & Race’ specification suspension (suitable for both road and track use) - Adjustable ride height - MSA fuel sampling coupling - Timing transponder - Safety marking decal pack - Championship sponsor decal pack - Caterham number squares - Competition numbers - Registration for Caterham's Academy Championship - Fully guided entry into motorsport and competition - Motorsport Association ‘Go Racing’ pack - Racing driver licence course (single day) - Racing driver medical - Racing driver licence - Exclusive pre-season test day - One championship sprint event - Event hospitality - Guide to the Caterham Academy - Circuit guide - Caterham Motorsport jacket and beanie [ Enquire now ](https://caterhamcars.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=147&catid=9&imageUrl=/assets/RetailerHub/users/caterhamkrazyhorse/Academy%202025/IMG_8115.jpeg&model=Seven%20Academy®istration=NU27REG&dealership=caterham%20krazy%20horse&locationOrigin=/en/find-buy/academy-2025.md&carName=Academy%202027) ### SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER Sign up to our newsletter and get the latest news about Caterham cars, events and more. ### SOCIAL MEDIA Follow us through our social media channels to get up to the minute news and insight into Caterham. - [](https://www.instagram.com/caterhamcarsltd) - [](https://www.facebook.com/CaterhamCars) - [](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn68HUuoX0gL_GtcQI3bSJA) - [Terms and Conditions](https://caterhamcars.com/en/terms-and-conditions) - [Privacy Policy](https://caterhamcars.com/en/privacy-policy) - [Cookie Policy](https://caterhamcars.com/en/cookie-policy) - [Retailer Hub](https://caterhamcars.com/en/retailer-hub) © Copyright 2026 Caterham Cars Ltd [ back to top ](#) [ . ](https://caterhamcars.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=95&catid=9) ## Schema ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://caterhamcars.com/en" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Find & Buy", "item": "https://caterhamcars.com/en/find-buy" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Academy 2027", "item": "https://caterhamcars.com/en/find-buy/academy-2025" } ] } ```
