Zenvo ST1 No 10/10 Car In The World Top 10 Cars 2016

The most expensive cars in the world are so much more than

 transportation. These rolling art pieces encapsulate the 

priorities of the one percent, and in that universe,

flamboyance and swagger take precedence over practicality 

and efficiency. Lifestyle criticisms aside, these are truly mind-

boggling machines, and we’d like to count down our 

favorites 

for you here.

For the sake of clarity, we’re categorizing recently made, 

road-legal production vehicles only — limited runs

notwithstanding — and we’re leaving out classic cars sold at 

auction. We’re also limiting the list to one entrant per

nameplate, so don’t expect 10 different iterations of the 

same

10. Zenvo ST1 ($1.2M)

Kicking off our list is less of a car and more of an unchained animal in the ST1. Assembled in Zealand, Denmark, the Zenvo creates an absolutely obscene amount of power by combining a 6.8-liter V8 with both a supercharger and a turbocharger. Just how much is obscene exactly? How about 1,104 horsepower and 1,054 pound-feet of torque, all channeled to the car’s rear wheels. Unfortunately for the Danish outfit, the mostly hand-built ST1 has been surrounded with controversy since its debut. During Top Gear’s 21st season, the program tested the supercar around its famous track, only to be met with constant breakdowns, slower than expected lap times, and a good old-fashioned engine fire. Zenvo disputed Top Gear’s claims, stating the show only published the vehicle’s sluggish laps and that the fire was caused by hours of extreme driving. Nevertheless, the vehicle’s murderous looks and monstrous grunt are nothing to shake a stick at. We certainly wouldn’t kick it out of the garage.   Read more: http://www.digitaltrends.com/cars/the-top-ten-most-expensive
