This is Nilu hypercar, the first hypercar produced by Nilu27, a brand founded by Koenigsegg and Bugatti designer, Sasha Selipanov. Underpinning the striking design of the new Nilu Hypercar is a bespoke carbon fiber monocoque, supplemented by a set of tubular aluminum-alloy subframes.

The hypercar is powered by a 6.5 litre V12 naturally aspirated engine, making 1070 horsepower and 860 Newton-meters of torque, allowing a top speed of 400 kilometers per hour. All the power is sent to the road via a 7 speed manual gearbox.
The Hypercar will weigh 1200 kilograms. An initial run of 15 track-focused Hypercars will be followed by 54 street-legal examples. Nilu27 has partnered with Hartley Engines in New Zealand to produce one of the most powerful and visually striking naturally aspirated engines in the world. The NILU engine bay is fully exposed, showcasing the beautiful 6.5-liter, 80-degree V12.

As NILU will not rely on electrification, it aims to be the world’s most powerful, naturally aspirated hypercar. To achieve this, the V12 will deliver more than 1000 horsepower. And while its large bore and short stroke will make it rev like an electric motor, the even-fire engine will provide the driver with the perfect amount of tactile vibration.
