	Tuthill, known for its incredible Porsche builds, has just unveiled its latest creation: the <strong>GT One</strong>. Clearly inspired by the legendary 911 GT1 from 1990s endurance racing, the GT One is a street-legal supercar limited to just 22 units.
</p>

<p>
	Buyers have some big decisions to make: a seven-speed twin-clutch gearbox or a six-speed manual? A naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six with around 500bhp, or a twin-turbo version pushing over 600bhp? Despite not having the same power as some modern supercars, the GT One’s ultra-lightweight carbon-fiber body and carbon ceramic brakes keep it at just 1,200kg. That's less than a Boxster, but with 911 Turbo-level power.
</p>

<p>
	Tuthill developed this car after a conversation between company boss Richard Tuthill and a client, asking what a modern GT1 road car would be like. The result? A car that mixes FIA-level safety with road-legal practicality, wrapped in a sleek, low-drag design.
</p>

<p>
	There’s talk of a potential aero pack for track use, but no official performance figures or pricing yet. For now, the focus is on its stunning looks and engineering.
</p>

<p>
	Could the GT One rival Singer in the race to create the ultimate 911? What do you think?
</p>

	Lamborghini have finally revealed the much-anticipated successor to the Huracán, and it’s called the <strong>Temerario</strong>.
</p>

<p>
	The iconic V10 that’s been in their cars since 2003 is out, and in its place is a new twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8, paired with <em>three</em> electric motors. It’s got a hot-vee layout, which means the turbos sit between the two cylinder banks.
</p>

<p>
	One motor is located between the engine’s crankshaft and the gearbox, while the other two are mounted on the front axle, allowing for front-wheel-drive operation for short distances in near-silence.
</p>

<p>
	The engine alone puts out 789bhp, between 9000rpm and 9750rpm, with a 10,000rpm redline. Add the electric motors, and total output jumps to 907bhp, giving it a 0-62mph time of 2.7 seconds and a top speed of 213mph.
</p>

<p>
	The electric motors provide torque-filling at low revs to reduce turbo lag, powered by a small 3.8kWh battery, which can be charged at rates of up to 7kW via AC.
</p>

<p>
	Thoughts on this as the Huracán’s replacement? Should it be made in 1:8 scale by Pocher?
</p>

<p>

					If you thought the Rimac Nevera was fast, meet its even wilder sibling: the <strong>Rimac Nevera R</strong>. Limited to just 40 units, this version takes everything up a notch.

						<p>
							The Nevera R comes with a new 108kWh battery that’s lighter, more efficient, and boosts power output to a massive 2,078bhp. Torque vectoring has been enhanced, sending power to all four wheels. It’s now quicker too – 0-62mph still in 1.81 seconds, but it hits 186mph in just 8.66 seconds (compared to 9.22 in the standard Nevera).
						</p>

						<p>
							Rimac has also improved stopping power with new carbon ceramic brakes, along with an aero kit that includes a fixed rear wing. Downforce is up by 15%, understeer reduced by 10%, and the car comes fitted with Michelin Cup 2 tyres for better handling. They even shaved 3.8 seconds off its lap time at Nardo.
						</p>

						<p>
							According to Mate Rimac, the Nevera R is built for those who wanted even more cornering precision and handling capability, while still being a world-class hypercar.
						</p>

						<p>
							What do you think? Is this the ultimate evolution of the Nevera?
