The 'R' variant pushes the boundaries further, extracting an astonishing 1121 horsepower from its 7.4L V8. This engine offers even more brutal acceleration and an unparalleled top-end rush, designed for the ultimate performance enthusiast.

As expected, the 'R' model's focus on extreme power means fuel efficiency is negligible. High fuel costs and frequent refills are part of the ownership experience for this ultimate hypercar.
