Canadian hypercar more powerful than Veyron

Feast your eyes on Canada’s sexiest export since Pamela Anderson – the insane Locus Plethore.

This North American hypercar is available with either a 750bhp engine or a monster 8.2-litre V8 producing a titanic 1,300bhp.

That’s 300bhp – or a Porsche Boxster S – more than a Bugatti Veyron.

And it shares similarities with the legendary McLaren F1, boasting a carbon fibre shell and a central driving position, meaning it can accommodate a driver and two passengers.

The Plethore is yet to be speed tested, but we’d expect the steroid-powered Canadian to rocket to 60mph in around 3 seconds and on to a top speed in excess of 240mph.

It is believed the Locus Plethore will be available later this year with a price tag of around £200,000.
