The Fenyr SuperSport is a limited production sports car built by W Motors, a United Arab Emirates based company. It was unveiled at the 2015 Dubai Motor Show. The name of the car, Fenyr, comes from the word Fenrir, the name of a monstrous wolf in Norse mythology.[4] The production of the car was originally planned to be up to 25 units per year, a drastic increase from the limited 7-car total production run of its predecessor.[5][6] However, this was later changed to a total of 100 vehicles (and 10 launch editions).[7]
The Fenyr SuperSport is powered by a 3.8 litre twin-turbochargedflat-six engine developed by Ruf Automobile,[8] having a maximum power output of 596kW (810PS; 799hp) at 7,100 rpm and 980N⋅m (723lb⋅ft) of torque at 4,000 rpm.[8] The engine has mid-rear mounted position.
Transmission
The Fenyr SuperSport is equipped with Porsche's 7-speed dual-clutch PDK transmission. The transmission is paired with a limited-slip differential and is mounted transversely at the rear of the vehicle transferring power to the rear wheels.[8]
The Fenyr SuperSport is equipped with forged aluminum wheels with diameters of 19 inches at the front and 20 inches at the rear. The car utilises Pirelli P Zero tyres having codes of 255/35 ZR 19 for the front and 335/30 ZR 20 for the rear. The brakes have ventilated ceramic composite discs, with a diameter of 420mm (16.5in) each and utilising six-piston aluminium callipers at the front and rear.[8]

The interior of the Fenyr SuperSport features a dashboard and central console finished in carbon-fibre and alcantara. The infotainment system includes a 12.3-inch dashboard display, 10.4-inch central display, and a 7.8-inch display for interior controls on the passenger side.[8] The car also has a 4G router and a mobile app for enhanced connectivity and remote data monitoring.
Performance
The manufacturer claims a top speed of 400 kilometres per hour (250mph) for the Fenyr SuperSport.[1] The car has a claimed 0–100km/h (0–62mph) acceleration time of 2.7 seconds. This is at least 5km/h (3mph) faster and 0.1 seconds quicker than the claimed figures for the Lykan HyperSport.[9]
Sales
The Fenyr was initially planned to have a production cap of 25 vehicles per year, however, this was later reduced to 100 vehicles plus 10 Launch Editions.[7]
On 31 July 2019, W Motors announced via social media that the final 5 Launch Editions of the car had been sold to an anonymous Japanese businessman. News sources (and W Motors itself) later revealed the buyer as Tetsumi Shinchi.[10][11][12]
Several sources also noted that Shinchi's Launch Editions would be debuted at the Mega Supercar Motor Show in 2021.[13][14][15]
In January 2020 at the groundbreaking of the new W Motors factory, W Motors revealed the first 9 Launch Editions had already been delivered and a further batch of approximately 60 were in production.[16]
