You probably know how the habits of small Italian car manufacturer that said: "Our car has thousands of power and has a top speed approaching the F-16 fighter aircraft," or maybe sounds too excessive.

Actually, Torino Design has never been done a test run on the ATS Wildtwelve to support their claim about the top speed that reaches 390 km/h. For sure, the supercar figure is a very beautiful creation and clearly reflected the impression of Italian flamboyant.

According to Torino Design, the 'ATS' stands for 'Automobili Turismo and Sport' and signifies the company that was born in 1960 as a result of the great uprising of the Ferrari engineers. Regarding to the 'Wildtwelve' name, the car is equipped by a 3.8 liter V12 engine twin-turbo coupled with a 9-speed sequential transmission system.

It could burst total output of 860 hp and has a torque of 918 Nm, and this could be happened thanks to the collaboration of its V12 engine and plug-in hybrid powertrain that consisted of two electric motors to drive the front wheels. The company also says that the chief engineer of this hybrid hypercar is a former employee of the Bugatti, but it is more interesting of this car is its weight. Thanks to the amount of carbon fiber materials, and finally Torino Design ATS Wildtwelve has a weighs only 1,450 kilograms.
Beside that, Torino Design will only make 30 units of the hybrid hypercar which has a length of 4.4 meters, a width of 2 meters and height of 1.2 meters and will be built in the old Bugatti factory at Campogalliano that has been acquired by the designer Santo Versace. The expectation is Mr Versace liked the car speed, since the ATS Wildtwelve capable of touching the figure of 100 km/h in 2.6 seconds. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | TORINO DESIGN | AUTOEVOLUTION]
