Is this the future of the combustion engine car?
Practically all major car manufacturers are more or less rapidly turning away from cars with combustion engines. However, there are a few small car manufacturers who do not yet want to believe in the end of the four-stroke engine. One of these is the company "777 Motors", which has just unveiled a new hyper sports car. The performance data reads impressively: 900 kg weight, 4.5-liter V8 engine with 730 hp at 9000 rpm, lateral acceleration up to 4 g.
A racing car for the road? Not quite. Despite the FIA-homologated monocoque, it is probably not suitable as a racing car because there is unlikely to be a suitable racing series. The car is not even approved for road use.
This leaves the buyer, who will have to pay EUR 7 million for one of the seven planned cars, with only a private track day. This always takes place in Monza, where 777 Motors is based. Together with the other six owners, they can then try to beat the calculated lap time of 1 minute 33 seconds on the fast circuit. Intensive technical and physical training is recommended beforehand, as the longitudinal and lateral accelerations are at F1 level. A training machine and a GT simulator are available to the 777 hypercar buyer for this purpose.
Despite the lack of a hybrid drive, environmental considerations are not neglected, with synthetic fuel being used.
Of course, this future of the car with a combustion engine is not really popular. And we hope that this is just one of many ways in which cars with four, six, eight and twelve-cylinder petrol engines can still be operated in the future.
