- On Launch Night, Chassis 193 was auction in aid of the Ayrton Senna Foundation. It sold for £2,000,000+.

- The Senna will feature either 2 or 3 exhaust apertures, depending on specific markets and the local volume restrictions. Below a certain RPM, the 3rd exit performs a silencing function whereas the 1st and 2nd exits are used above this RPM limit for full aural effect. The twin-exit exhaust provides a 5.3kg weight saving.
