$1.8 Million Danish Supercar Has Bugatti-Busting 1,250 Horsepower

$1.8 Million Danish Supercar Has Bugatti-Busting 1,250 Horsepower: "

Answering a question no one was asking, Danish supercar builder Zenvo Automotive is taking the fight to Bugatti. The boutique automaker is bringing three examples of its mid-engine 1,250-bhp supercar to the U.S. market. The car, known as the Zenvo ST-1 50S, is priced at $1.8 million.

This actually makes the Zenvo a bargain of the hyper-exotic automotive world, since it’s roughly $600,000 less than a Bugatti Super Sport but offers an extra 50-bhp over the Bug’s 1,200-bhp. Heck, Zenvo even throws in a $49,000 Swiss-made watch to anyone who hands a check over for the ST-1 50S.

Of course, some bragging rights will be curtailed by the performance of the car. We’re not complaining about the (mfr. estimated) 0-60 mph sprint of 3.0 seconds. The Zenvo even looks pretty cool in photos, with its chunky lines and vicious-looking headlights and protruding grill.

But the Zenvo’s electronically limited top speed of 233-mph means the ST-1 50S remains 25-mph shy of the Bugatti Super Sport’s 258-mph v-max.
