Ngaba uyakhumbula le moto yemidlalo engaqhelekanga evezwe ngo-2013 kwiDubai Motor Show? Ngaba leya yayithembisa amandla agqithiseleyo neyabangela amathandabuzo amaninzi kwihlabathi leemoto? Ngokwe-brand yase-Arab, i-Devel Sixteen sisindululo esitsha esithembisa ukuhlazisa imizekelo efana ne-Bugatti Veyron.
Iinkcazo ziyamangalisa ngokwenene: I-12.3-litre quad-turbo V16 injini ehambisa isantya ukusuka ku-0 ukuya kwi-100 km/h ngemizuzwana eyi-1.8 kunye nesantya esiphezulu esiyi-563 km/h (masikholelwe…).
Ngokutsho kukaSteve Morris Engines (SME), ojongene ne-V16 block of Devel Sixteen, injini iyakwazi ukufikelela kwi-5000 hp yamandla. Kunzima ukukholelwa, akunjalo? Ngesi sizathu, uphawu lwama-Arabhu lwalufuna ukubonisa ukuba le njini ayisiyiyo eyokudlala kwaye ibekwe kwibhentshi yovavanyo. Isiphumo? Injini yayikwazi ukuhambisa i-4515 hp kwi-6900 rpm.
Nangona kunjalo, i-SME iqinisekisa ukuba injini inokufikelela kwi-5000 hp ukuba "dyno" inokuxhasa onke loo mandla. Nangona kunjalo, ukusebenza kwe-injini ye-V16 kuyamangalisa, nangona ukuphunyezwa kwayo kwimoto yokuvelisa iprojekthi "eluhlaza" kakhulu.
