Building upon the success of the road-going K1, Allard launched the sleeker K2 in 1950. A 3.6-liter Ford V-8 was standard, but buyers could also specify Cadillac, Chrysler, Mercury and Oldsmobile V-8 engines. The K2 was produced until 1952, with just 119 built. The few imported to the US were quickly adopted by road racers and exceptionally successful.
