Koenigsegg Gemera Yes, the new Gemera is Koenigsegg’s first four-seater and the world’s first “Mega-GT.” The front seats fit two adults comfortably while leaving plenty of room in the back for two adults as well. What’s more, there’s also space for carry-on luggage as well. The Gemera packs all of that AND a combined power output of 1,700 bhp. For this power, the Mega-GT relies on three electric motors and a 2-liter 3-cylinder dry-sumped twin-turbo Freevalve engine (nicknamed Tiny Friendly Giant or TFG). Thanks to the three electric motors, the Gemera can drive at speeds up to 186 mph completely silent and has a 31-mile pure EV range. www.Koenigsegg.com
McLaren 765LT Starting with the solid foundation of the 720S, engineers sculpted a longer and wider body to offer 25% more downforce. Then it was time for a diet. The new 765LT can be ordered without audio, air conditioning, and power seats. We saw the prototype at the Amelia Island Concours, and it is the epitome of analog motoring. Tipping the scales at 2,709 lbs when dry, it has an incredible 622 horsepower per ton. www.Mclaren.com

While the Chiron Super Sport 300+ was created for a max speed of over 300 mph, the Chiron Pur Sport wants to fly through corners as quickly as possible. Dropping the weight of the car was also necessary if Bugatti wanted to make the Chiron Pur Sport nimble. Inside, the cabin is “sporty and raw,” according to Bugatti. This just means they saved as much weight as possible by making the interior as minimal as possible. Production on the Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport will begin in the second half of 2020.
