The MEMA awards are awarded by a panel of 17 journalists from 10 countries representing the Middle Eastern Automobile industry. The vehicle’s new 500 hp, 660Nm (487 lb ft) 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 was praised for a multitude of assets, including performance, efficiency, as well as for its distinct soundtrack.
