Sasha Selipanov, who has a background with Lamborghini, Bugatti, and Koenigsegg, will soon introduce a hypercar under his own brand. While specific technical specifications of the car remain undisclosed, the company emphasizes its dedication to delivering an unparalleled automotive adventure.

Latest Hypercar: Nilu27 Teaser

As reported by CarScoops, scant information is available regarding the hypercar, though indications suggest it will be equipped with a naturally aspirated engine. A fresh hypercar label, Nilu27, helmed by automotive designer Sasha Selipanov, is set to debut at Pebble Beach on August 15, 2024.

This venture follows Selipanov's establishment of the design studio Hardline27 last year. Additionally, a brief teaser video showcasing the new hypercar from the brand has been shared online, focusing on the rear view of the car.

As highlighted by CarScoops, the video reveals gullwing doors and a rear design reminiscent of the Pagani Utopia, but with a more aggressive touch. Notably, three central tailpipes positioned between the two wings immediately draw attention.

The footage includes a brief segment of the car revving, emitting a sound that hints at a naturally aspirated engine, although the exact type remains unclear. The back of Nilu27's hypercar features simplistic LED taillights integrated into the rear grilles, along with a substantial carbon fiber diffuser.

The absence of a conventional bumper offers an unobstructed view of the rear tires. The teaser describes Nilu27 as a fresh hypercar marque dedicated to crafting vehicles that strike a balance between beauty and fierceness.

The brand remains undeterred by digital advancements, electric trends, or other diversions, concentrating instead on delivering the epitome of automotive enjoyment infused with an exhilarating touch of awe-inspiring innovation.

About Engine

As stated by Autoblog, upon hearing the engine, observers may discern faint red components arranged in a wide-V configuration, possibly valve covers, while the exhaust sound resonates akin to that of a high-performance V8 engine. These observations spark speculative thoughts regarding the nature of the vehicle.

Will it cater to street use or be designed as a track-exclusive model? Is it solely combustion-powered or combined with electric enhancements? These questions elicit curiosity. Moreover, Autoblog discussed the limited view of the inaugural vehicle's rear reveals remarkable features. The teaser video showcases initially the presence of compact gullwing doors, swiftly succeeded by an intricately designed dual-panel rear wing spanning above three exhaust outlets that gradually become prominent.

Additionally, viewers are presented with a glimpse of a sophisticated pushrod-based suspension system, substantial employment of carbon fiber, rear diffusers suggesting extensive aerodynamic underbody configurations, and a potential tubular spaceframe chassis.

Less than a year ago, Selipanov revealed the establishment of Hardline27, describing it as "a fresh automotive design and branding studio with bases in Berlin and Los Angeles."

Given Selipanov's impressive automotive design background encompassing renowned companies such as Lamborghini, Bugatti, Koenigsegg, and involvement in striking concepts for Genesis, anticipation is naturally elevated for the forthcoming creations from his latest venture, Nilu27.

Much remains shrouded in mystery regarding this enigmatic hypercar, leaving more questions unanswered than resolved. However, one undeniable fact emerges: With automotive designer Sasha Selipanov steering the project, one can expect nothing short of an extraordinary and audacious creation.
