The new model is the Fenyr Supersport, and it made its debut today at the 2015 Dubai Motor Show. It now appears all of them have been built and sold as W Motors has rolled out a new model. The car was the Lykan Hypersport, and its production run totaled just seven cars. And while the engine may be hard to see, the cooling for it is everywhere! There are so many cooling ducts peppering the front, side and roof, it looks like someone’s taken a hacksaw to the bodywork to let that muscular flat six breathe.Arabian supercar marque W Motors shocked the world when it first announced plans for a car with a price tag of $3.4 million. The boxer six is mounted so deep inside the Fenyr that there’s no engine viewing platform like you’d find in most mid-engined supercars – just layers of glass and carbon wrapping over the top, like a mechanical lasagne. Inside Ruf: join us inside the famous Porsche tuner It’s mated to a seven-speed semi-automatic gearbox. Putting out 789bhp and 723lb ft torque, its compact size means it can be buried deeper and lower in the chassis than the usual V-configuration block, aiding the centre of gravity and chassis performance. Rather than a V8, V12 or electrified powertrain, W Motors has opted for a turbocharged flat-six sourced from Ruf. The looks are contemporary, to say the least: a mix of manga robot and jet fighter – but the engine behind our passenger seat is not at all sci-fi. The car we’re sitting in is an evolution of the previous model, and keeps many of the same ingredients.

Obviously, the naming department forgot to plan ahead. Despite its SuperSport moniker, the Fenyr is actually more powerful than the Lykan HyperSport it follows. The slow crawl to the grid gives me time to quiz Ben, and also take a look at the car we’ll be taking up the hill.
