We’ve heard about Arrera Automobili before, and unlike what the name might suggest, this isn’t a company locate in Italy, Qendrim Thaqi is from Albania, and he introduced his Illyrian Pure Sport project late last year, in December 2020, a car that would become the first Albanian supercar built to international standards, with a 6.2-Liter V8 engine delivering 850 hp … top speed should be 375 km\/h and acceleration from 0 to 100 km\/h (62 mph) in only 2.7 seconds.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But it seems the Arrera Automobili Illyrian Pure Sport got stuck in the 3D render stage for now, as Thaqi now set his sights on the SD+ … with even more radical styling and a monstrous powertrain, just note both the Illyrian Pure Sport and this new SD+ are both designed by Thaqi himself.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For the Arrera Automobili SD+, Thaqi was inspired by Formula One cars, especially in terms of aerodynamic efficiency, perhaps that’s why there is a rather narrow rear wing on top of the vertical fin at the rear.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The intention is to build the Arrera Automobili SD+ completely from carbon fiber to keep the weight down, power will come from a bespoke 7.0-Liter V8 90-degree engine built by Wolfgang Kizler just for the SD+, Arrera lists 1,800 hp (1,342 kW) of power with 1,500Nm (1,106 lb-ft) of torque on normal octane fuel.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This engine combined with the low weight of 1,230kg (2,712 pounds) should propel this Albanian hypercar to a top speed of over 500 km\/h (310 mph) making it the fastest car in the world, and that’s also where the name SD+ came from.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The ‘S’ stands for Skanderbeg, an Albanian military commander, while the ‘D’ comes for the Roman number 500, for the top speed this car should reach … but it gets even more interesting with the ‘+’ sign, Thaqi added that because he wants to be even faster than 500 km\/h.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

At the moment we only see a few virtual renders of what should become the Arrera Automobili SD+ later this year, an interior is visible thanks to a mostly glass roof, but nothing about pricing or production numbers has been published.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Let’s first see an actual production prototype being tested with that 1,800 hp V8 engine reaching anything near 500 km\/h, and then Thaqi can talk about pricing.<\/p>\n
