Supercar

The Lamborghini Huracan finally has a successor, and boy, is it a good one! Called the Temerario, which translates to “reckless” in English, it's a plug-in hybrid marking the evolution of the raging bull. Safe to say, the car has big shoes to fill.

Remember the Mjølner, the earth-shaking V12 engine under development by Zenvo? Welp, rip that "under development" tag clean off, as the first unit of the world's most powerful road-going V12 engine has been completed.

What you're looking at is a one-off, mid-engine, hand-built wedge car fashioned entirely of mirror-polished aluminum. The Peralta S is modeled on a Maserati supercar, just like the original of the 1970s. But here’s the thing: you can’t have it.

Bugatti wowed the supercar world with its 1,800 hp Tourbillon last June. For those who weren't impressed by its hybrid V16 power plant and Swiss-made watchmaker dash, there's now even more excess on offer in the form of the Équipe Pur Sang package.

Remember the 1,287-horsepower electric Yangwang U9? In a recently released video, the BYD hypercar is seen driving autonomously and jumping over a variety of obstacles, including road spikes and water-filled potholes.

This all-powerful British four-wheel-drive machine is the company's first series production mid-engined supercar, and also its first plug-in hybrid. It tops out at 217 mph, does 0-60 mph in just 2.5 seconds, and it can be yours for just $1 million.

At a test track in Germany, Bugatti has just recorded an open-top speed much quicker than the iconic Veyron managed with a roof on when it stunned the world in 2010. Next stop, says Mate Rimac, is 500 km/h (311 mph) and the outright speed crown.

Chinese company JiYue has unveiled a stonking high-performance, long-range, intelligent supercar capable of doing 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 1.9 seconds, 400 miles (644 km) to a charge, and featuring a unibody carbon frame.

The Alpine Alpenglow is back, this time equipped with an all-new "Hy6" twin-turbo V6 engine developed from the ground up to run on hydrogen. The Hy6 doubles the power of the last Alpenglow, delivering true supercar performance and rumble.

The YangWang U9 is remarkably affordable for a 1,287-horsepower electric hypercar at around US$236,000. It also rocks a 'DiSus' active suspension system powerful enough to launch the car off the ground, or let it rotate on the spot in a "tank turn."

Koenigegg has vowed never to make a faster car than the wild Jesko Absolut. This feisty 1,600-horsepower hypercar has now had its first day out on an empty airstrip – and it brought home the bacon, including the coveted 0-400-0 km/h world record.

Chinese electric auto-giant BYD has released a bold supercar concept through its premium Fang Cheng Bao brand. The Super 9 rocks no roof, the barest hint of windscreen, and lascivious scissor doors – and it's apparently headed for production.
