Nilu27 NILU Hypercar
Sasha Selipanov has helped pen car designs for some of the world's most prestigious manufacturers: Bugatti, Koenigsegg, Lamborghini, and others. But Selipanov wanted something without the constraints of corporate suits, leading to the creation of his own company, Nilu27. Nilu27 has now introduced its first offering, the Nilu hypercar. The Nilu aims to offer more than just numbers, with an analog-focused driving experience that combines the best modern design and manufacturing with the direct feel of the past. Powering the Nilu is a 6.5-liter V12 made by New Zealand-based Hartley with a unique hot-V design. The exhaust exits through the inside of the V instead of the outside, allowing for a freer-flowing path — helping make over 1,000 horsepower. Shifting is via a seven-speed CIMA manual transmission. The track-only car will have an initial production run of 15 vehicles, with a road-legal variant in the works.
