Four years agone, an image of the insane Devel Sixteen hypercar debuted in the urban center, however, we tend to couldn’t facilitate however be dubious concerning the company’s daring claims. The build quality looked crude compared to its competitors, and Devel claimed the automobile packed a head-turning 5,000-horsepower because of a Quad-turbo V16 engine and a prime speed prodigious three hundred mph. We’ve solely recently began to see production hypercars break the 1,000-hp barrier with the likes of the Bugatti Chiron and Koenigsegg Regera, that the Devel Sixteen appeared previous its time.

Imagine our surprise, then, once we learned that a production-ready version of the Devel Sixteen was slated to debut at this week’s Dubai Auto Show.
