Overview of Devel Sixteen
Last posts, we have explored many fast hypercars. But today we will speak about the insane car that is Devel Sixteen. This insane car is an upcoming car that is being manufactured and produced by Manifattura Automobili Torino.
The exhausts of this car are not less than that of a jet. These sound much louder than any other sports car, making it one of the loudest hypercar.
The devel sixteen is not a production car because this concept car is still in the testing phase.

Three variants of Devel Sixteen
The devel motors unveil three models of the devel sixteen.
First variant
The first variant is powered by a V8 turbo engine generating 2000 horsepower. This model would cost $1.6 million.
Second variant
The second model is powered by a V16 engine generating 3000 horsepower. It would cost $1.8 million.
Third variant
Third, powered by an 81 mm Quad Turbo 12.3 Litre V16 engine generates an enormous power of 5007 horsepower that is more than thrice the energy produced by the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+. This variant is the topmost model of the devel 16.
In this article, we will be mainly talking about the third model of the devil 16.
The devel motors claim a top speed of 350 mph (560 km/h) and 3757 lb-ft of torque for the third variant of the devil sixteen.
This model is meant for drag racing, only track racing, and would cost $2.2 million. A V16 engine powers the car that makes the vehicle capable of reaching the top speed of more than 320 mph.
This hypercar can accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 1.8 seconds, one second faster than Koenigsegg Agera RS.
Interior and Exterior
The interior of the sixteen is still under development; the prototype accompanies the minimum and necessary interior that is a compulsion for every car.
The car looks especially long and extended, accentuated by how the body dives around as though every board is folded over another board. The front end remains appropriately over the top with the short yet sharp nose, the gigantic front spoiler that sits near the ground, and the unconventional way the headlights are bundled. Move to the sides and you’re welcomed with the broad wheel curves, the all-inclusive body lines, and the plenty of admissions and air channels that are everywhere throughout the car’s body.
The Devel 16 is an inspiration from a jet. The concept car looks like a jet; it accompanies two big exhausts that look not less than that of the jet. These are very big compared to other supercars; you can even place your head in each exhaust.
Why Devel Sixteen need massive power of 5000 horsepower?
This question must have stuck in the mind of the readers that what is the need for 5000 horsepower. The fastest car in the world that is Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300 also generates only 1578 horsepower.
The supers cars require less than 2000 horsepower at speeds less than 310 mph. But it requires more than 4500 horsepower to reach the top speeds of more than 320 mph.
The main reason behind this is the drag coefficient. It is less than 0.3 at speeds of less than 310 mph. But it becomes more than the seven times that is more than two at the high speeds of more than 320 mph. Therefore, the devil sixteen required 5000 horsepower to achieve massive speeds of more than 320 mph.
