Why would they make this 'supercar' with the same hp as the Veyron and then limit it's top speed 20+mph short of the Veyron??? :banghead:

I like the look but want more info concerning performance, ammenities and history. I like that sorta stuff.

Performance data is the whole point of building a supercar so why limit the top speed. Its not like potential owners are going to drive this to the supermarket every week!

yeah, i dont think they would have set out to be 20mph slower on purpose! with the same HP then it comes down to the aero coefficient and power to weight ratio.

Yes it does seem to have some very serious aerodynamic flaws at the front end compared to the Veyron.

Maybe it's been designed to be good around a track rather than just in a straight line on the motorway then, unlike the Veyron.
