The Devel Sixteen was unveiled at the Dubai Motors show this week, and its boasted figures are as crazy as it looks. Under the fighter jet like exterior there beats a V16 with 5000hp, that’s almost 4 times as much as a Veyron Super Sport. All this power is claimed to give the Devel a top speed of 560km/h and a 0-100kph time of 1.8 sec. The front is like some futuristic race car and the rear is not far off batmans cars. We still don’t know much about this concept, will it stand up to its crazy claims or is it just another designers wet dream.

It started at a young age with bedroom posters, the Countach of course. This slowly grew into a super car die-cast model collection, fifty five 1:18 models at the last count. At which point it had almost taken full control, the incurable Mad Car Disease ran deep though my veins all the way to the bone. And things for my loved ones just got worse as the cars where now being bought at 1:1 scale, after a BMW, HSV, and couple of Audi's, the disease reached my brain, pushing me over the edge and down the rabbits hole into the world of the bedroom poster.

  1. Surely a 0-100kph time of 1.8 sec will require very sticky tyres on a very well prepped track. It’s one thing to build a car with lots of power and a very different thing to get that car to plant that power onto the road.
