its V16 and its 5,007 horsepower finally come true?

The Devel Sixteen, which promises no less than 5,000 horsepower and more than 500 km / h in peak, will she keep its promises? For the moment, we are not yet convinced … A project that seems to drag on.

In 2013, at dubai lounge, the brand new brand Devel had unveiled a project supercar quite unusual. Financed by local funds, the manufacturer promises a sports car to terrifying performance.

Unusual power

Already, by its power, which would exceed the 5000 horses according to the brand thanks to its enormous 16 cylinders of 12.3 l. Consequence, the Maximum speed of this Devel Sixteen is just as demonic since it could exceed the bar of 500 km/h. More precisely, the Vmax announced for this monster is 560 km / h !

If we take these figures literally, it would be almost 100km / h faster than a Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+, whose speed “peaks” at 490 km/h.

Founded in 2006 in Dubai, the company Devel Motors was created with the aim of creating l’hypercar ultimate. Inspired by a fighter plane, the Devel Sixteen was therefore launched to break all world records. A road copy, more “modest” will have to be satisfied with 3,000 horses.

Right next to this racing car, the other fastest production cars in the world, the SSC Tuatara or the Bugatti Chiron with respectively 1 750 and 1,600 horsepower softly laugh.

A project really up to date?

But for now, apart from the unveiling of a prototype at Dubai Motor Show 2017, the Devel Sixteen did not show much signs of life but had never driven before!

This time around, Devel Motors has finally released a video during a test in Italy which proves that the supercar does exist. In this short clip, although of poor quality, the car is only visible for a very short period of time. We barely have time to hear the engine sound and seeing the car roll for a few meters… Frustrating.

And above all we can not draw any conclusions from this too succinct extract. We let you judge!
