This qualifies as a
European car (though not the usual kind). Called the Zenvo ST1, it comes
from Denmark. And it’s (supposedly) going to be available in the United
States. The S in the name refers to its supercharger. The T in the name
refers to its turbocharger. Yep, it has both forms of forced induction
bolted to a 7.0-liter V8, which of course results in mighty power
levels: 1,086 hp and 1,055 lb-ft of torque. And hilarious/scary
acceleration times: 0-60 mph in a whisker under 3 seconds, and a
(limited) top speed of 233 mph. The engine runs on gasoline or E85
ethanol (no power numbers for the organic stuff yet). And the latest
news is that it might have an F1-type transmission. Only 15 cars a year
will be produced, with a price of around $1,125,000 a pop ... maybe more
with the F1 trans.
