It’s a Moroccan built car that features a Twin Turbo LS7 That is good for 1200hp on pump 91 octane. The car also features a second fuel tank the hold 110 octane fuel. The car is good for over 1700hp on the race fuel. They will reportedly build 9 of these.

Is it me or all those small make supercars use a version of the LS motor.

I’ve noticed that too. I’d really like it if they all made their own motors too but they can’t seem to get away for the tried and true LSx

That stuff is overrated.

They hold boost really well and are some of the most reliable blocks on the market. There is plenty of support and avenues to generate more power or collaborate to diagnose issues. It really cuts down on the R&D and problem solving that would be needed for making their own motors which is a necessity for many of these smaller supercar makers.

Are these claims backed by anything, or is it like the Devel Sixteen (‘’Oh yeah, our car makes 5000 hp! What? Dyno sheets? What’s that?’’)

You don’t need any of that when you’re a billionaire!

I have nothing to back it up but a boosted LS7 should have no problems making 1200hp on pump gas. 1700hp on 110 octane does sound high but definitely not impossible.

Noble says otherwise.

I think it's kinda ugly.

Oh yeah sure, but I wonder if they just threw numbers around based on what they saw on the internet or if they already have an engine builder and a working prototype.

The car fires in the video, but it could sound like that and make around 400 horsepower for all we know.

Until it’s actually made and sold we won’t really know I guess.

Superior engines for superior cars.

The F12 engine winning an award is a joke.
