K1 Speed Accelerates Growth in Italy with New Karting Center in Turin

TURIN, Italy, Dec. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- K1 Speed, the world's largest indoor go-kart racing operator, is excited to announce the opening of its newest center in Turin, Italy. This location represents the brand's seventh in the country, further expanding its presence.

K1 Speed Turin's signature attraction is its all-electric go-kart racing experience. Guests can race high-performance go-karts around the center's professionally designed track. The OTL "Superleggero" adult karts, suitable for teens and adults, can reach speeds of 45 mph, while junior karts for kids can hit a respectable 20 mph. This track itself includes elevation changes, adding an extra layer of excitement.

In 2025, K1 Speed Turin will host league races for juniors, teens, and adults. The top three finishers from each league at the end of the year will qualify for an opportunity to race in the United States as part of the company's E-World Championship, where racers from the U.S., France, Mexico, Canada, Puerto Rico, and England will vie for immense cash prizes.

While racing is the main attraction, K1 Speed Turin also features an expansive arcade with a variety of games, including video games, VR, prize machines, and games of skill.

After all the excitement, guests can relax and recharge at the center's on-site Paddock Lounge café, which serves a variety of food and beverages.
