First made known in 2013, then still only in static form, Dubai-born supercar Devel Sixteen is back! This time, in the form of a prototype, already equipped with an engine. Which, guarantees the manufacturer, will even have the potency initially announced: nothing more, no less than 5000 hp!
As announced by Road & Track, the presentation of the concept is now scheduled for the next 14th of November. A time when not only the lines of the supersports future will be made known, but also the engine that will be at its base: the already promised 12.3 liter quadriturbo V16, announcing a maximum power in the order of 5000 hp!

And, it should be noted, with the V16 promising speeds of around 500 km/h!

A moment when it will be possible to see more of what Devel men have achieved in the last four years, since the first presentation of the model. Or, if nothing else, to try to understand how much of everything that the manufacturer advertises can, in fact, turn out to be real...
