4.0 V8 (1030 Hp) Plug-in Hybrid E4WD F1 DCT Verdict:

Rating 5 stars

Performance Verdict

This powertrain is a masterpiece of engineering, delivering mind-bending acceleration (0-100 km/h in 2.3s) and a combined 1030 Hp. The twin-turbo V8, coupled with three electric motors and an 8-speed F1 DCT, provides instant torque, seamless power delivery, and exceptional track capability, making it one of the most potent road-legal cars ever produced.

Fuel Economy

While not its primary focus, the plug-in hybrid system offers a modest 25 km all-electric range, allowing for silent, emission-free short trips at speeds up to 135 km/h. For a hypercar, this provides a surprising degree of urban usability, though overall fuel consumption under spirited driving will be significant.
