AUTOMOBILES with the three electric motors dispersed between the engine and the rear wheels, the P1 LM produces a heroic 1000 horsepower. These details may not distinguish a car on this list, which has high power standards. The Lanzante distinguishes itself is in how smart it is. The aerodynamics come to life on track. A modified rear wing and enlarged front splitter join together with dive planes that generate an astounding 40 percent increase in down force over the P1 GTR. 142 4- Lykan HyperSport - $3.4 million Built by W Motors, the Lykan HyperPport is legitimately the first Arab supercar.
