Nilu, the 1,070HP Manual Hypercar From the Designer of the Bugatti Chiron | Man of Many

via manofmany.com

Sasha Selipanov, the designer behind both the Bugatti Chiron and the Koenigsegg CC850, complacency is a dirty word. The revered sports car maker has again returned to the artist’s studio, this time conceptualising an extraordinary new hypercar that fuses heritage design with modern technology. Meet Nilu, a self-titled hypercar that promises to revive the analogue driving experience.

Designed as the antidote to the industry’s electric obsession, the new Nilu hypercar embraces tradition in a manner that we haven’t seen for some time. Admittedly, the vehicle’s 1,000 horsepower output isn’t likely to raise eyebrows when compared to some existing models on the market, but the analogue details and minimalistic design certainly will. It is a hypercar steeped in the core design philosophy of giving the driver the least possible distraction.

The steering wheel is compact and devoid of any controls whatsoever while there are not even drive modes. Instead, you get a wonderful 7-speed gated manual transmission, and everything else is manually controlled, including the steering wheel, pedal box, headrest, door mirrors and more. Peer closer and there is a whiff of Pagani with the cold-touch billet machined controls instead of the usual screens or touch surfaces.
