World renown sports car manufacturer Ferrari is at it again. The Italian company released its latest beautiful road demon, called the 812 Superfast, at International Geneva Motor Show on Wednesday. Powered by a 6.5 liter V12 engine capable of generating a whopping 789 horsepower, the 812 Superfast is Ferrari’s fastest ever supercar, able to bolt from 0 to 60 in just 2.9 seconds and can exceed speeds of 210 miles per hour. Ferrari's latest model is priced at $308,000 dollars, but, even if you've got the cash, you won't be able to get one - the 812 Superfast is already sold out for 2017. Ferrari CEO Sergio Marchionne pointed out that the company's strategy lies in first being sure of demand and then making sure to produce less cars than the demand to stay exclusive. The 87th edition of the Geneva International Motor Show has open its doors for second day for industry specialists and journalists on Monday and will be available to the public from March 9-19. The organisers of the 2017 Geneva Motor show are expecting more than 700,000 visitors this year.
The $1.6 million Venom F5 hypercar from American carmaker Hennessey made its 'global' debut at the Geneva International Motor Show on Tuesday. The carmaker claims that the F5 Venom is able to reach a top speed of over 300mph, which would make it the world’s fastest production vehicle. The lightweight chassis and carbon fibre bodywork give the F5 a curb weight of just under 3000 pounds, not the lightest supercar around. It remains to be seen whether the Venom F5 can actually deliver on the 300mph promise.
The McLaren Senna GTR was unveiled to the public at the Geneva International Motor Show in the Palexpo convention centre on Tuesday. Inspired by Formula 1 icon Ayrton Senna, the $1million supercar is made of lightweight carbon fibre and comes in five colours, including the same yellow and green scheme used by Senna. Each Senna GTR takes over 1,000 hours to produce, which contributes to the eye-watering price tag.
Bulgarian supercar manufacturer Sin Cars presented their S1 prototype at the Geneva International Motor Show and it left many people scratching their heads. With non-symmetrical design, unusual driver side tires, and open frame, the S1 looks nothing like what you would expect from a turbocharged supercar, and it's drawn some heavy criticism for its original design. However, some have lauded the S1 for its audacity to move away from the mainstream. The S1 comes as an open-top or coupe and starts $49,900, packed either with an electric, internal combustion or hybrid engine.
