American Startup Unveils $2.5 Million AI-Designed V12 Hybrid Hypercar

A bold American upstart is shaking up the high-end auto scene. Vittori, a fresh face in the car game, just dropped its debut hypercar, the Vittori Turbio, priced at a cool $2.5 million. This beast blends AI smarts with classic Italian design chops from Pininfarina, turning heads before it even hits the pavement.

The brains behind the Turbio swear it’s more than just another tech-laden speed machine. They wanted old-school soul with next-gen muscle. A company rep spilled the details: “Sure, we went all-in on the latest tech, but the heart of this ride? Crafting something that captures the raw beauty, roar, and soul of vintage legends. Built to last, not just dust the competition.”

Looks-wise, the Turbio walks the line between McLaren’s wind-cheating curves and unmistakable Italian swagger. Up front, a hexagonal snout pairs with razor-thin headlights, those L-shaped daytime runners adding a sinister wink. Oversized side intakes? Pure 650S vibes. Out back, it’s all drama: a gaping diffuser, floating wing supports, and four fat exhausts stacked dead center, hammering home that hexagonal theme.

Inside, it’s minimalism with a purpose. Digital gauges, a vertical touchscreen, and a wheel crammed with tactical switches scream “track day special.” Power? A monstrous 6.8-liter V12 hybrid, courtesy of Italtecnica, teamed with an electric motor up front. Total punch: 1,100 horses, blasting to 62 mph in a blink-and-miss-it 2.5 seconds.

Only 50 units will roll out, making this a rare gem for collectors craving a mashup of tomorrow’s tech and yesterday’s fire-breathing glory. No half measures here—just pure, unfiltered automotive alchemy.
