    Next Alfa Romeo 8C Could Pack 800 HP (596 kW) Of Hybrid Power

    We know that a new Alfa Romeo 8C is in the works but now according to Car Magazine, it might be stupidly powerful with performance to take on the best Ferrari has to offer.

    The late Sergio Marchionne confirmed this model would return back in June but did not delve into specifics of the new Italian supercar.

    The new car will sport a mid-engine layout rather than a big heavy engine up front and will likely get it’s power from the same twin-turbo 2.9-litre V6 used in the Giulia Quadrifoglio.

    Currently that engine produces 500 horses but with some modifications it can possibly push out closer to 600 when fitted inside the new 8C. By the sounds of things, this is not enough power as the manufacturer will allegedly supplement this motor with a 200 horsepower electric motor. This will bring total output to a potent 800 hp (596 kW).

    That makes it significantly more powerful than the 710 hp Ferrari 488 Pista but will it out perform this brilliant new Maranello machine?

    Production details remain unconfirmed but it’s thought that fewer than 1000 units will be built.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?

    • The new BMW M240i xDrive barely puts a foot wrong. The price is right, it's crushingly quick, more than practical enough to daily and if you only look at the front, it is very easy on the eye πŸ˜‰ 

It pulls properly hard, doesn’t feel turbocharged in its response, and delivers thrills when you want them. The extra confidence and pace afforded by the sweet pairing of the straight-six petrol engine and the rear-biased xDrive AWD system make the M240i an enticing proposition all of its own.

If you gave any BMW fan a wish list and asked them to build the perfect car given the company's current resources, it probably wouldn't be too far off this one.
