Genty Akylone: 1000 HP French Hypercar

As long as Peugeot and Renault haven’t taken car of this issue, a private company called Genty Automobile has taken it upon themselves to create France’s supercar of choice. The bad news is that it’s being presented to the world via a computer generated video. The good news, however, is that it promises to bring 1,000 horsepower to the game.
The Akylone is supposedly a very serious fighter in the supercar horsepower war, thanks to a 4.8-litre twin-turbo V8. Whether it lives up to its promise or not is still a matter of us having to wait and them having to deliver.

Nevertheless, true supercars used to be created by Lamborghini and Ferrari in a matter of decades back in the day, so a bit of patience is in order.

We’re inclined to do this because the company has promised a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.7 seconds and a top speed of 354 Km/h (220 mph). With only 15 to be built, we’re not really the ones that are waiting though.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
