Audi

R8 V10 Performance RWD 

Audi’s 5.2-litre V10 engine – as seen in the Huracan – is arguably still one of the best high-performance engines out there. The R8 V10 Performance RWD comes with a V10 engine that produces 560 horsepower and 550 Nm of torque, allowing the car to go from 0-100km in just 3.7 seconds. Dynamic steering is now available for the first time for the rear-wheel-drive R8 which makes the car more nimble and fun to drive. It is slated to reach our shores in the first half of the year costing at least S$750,000 without COE.

BMW

M850i xDrive Coupe 

BMW’s updated 8 Series is the first of several new cars that BMW will be introducing this year. The updated 8 Series lineup, includes the Coupe, Convertible and four-door Gran Coupe. BMW has announced a mild mid-life facelift for its 8 Series luxury coupe, with minor cosmetic changes and extra equipment added across the range.

The M850i xDrive gets a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine producing 530 horsepower and 750 Nm of torque. The current M850i xDrive Coupe costs S$577,888 without COE, and the facelifted model is expected to cost around the same when it arrives in Singapore in the second quarter of 2022.

Ferrari

296 GTB

Fun fact: those three numbers on the 296 GTB stand for, 2.9-litre, V6 engine. The 296 GTB packs 818 horsepower and 546 Nm of torque. That would zip you from 0-100km in just 2.9 seconds. In addition, 0-200km takes only 7.3 seconds.

In electric mode, the 296 GTB possesses a range of 25km with a top speed of 180km/h. The Ferrari 296 GTB is expected to arrive in February 2022 with a price of around S$1,200,000 without COE.

Maserati

MC20

The MC20 is an all-new model for the Maserati lineup, and the ‘MC’ in its name refers to Maserati Corse – a signal that the brand will perhaps soon re-enter racing events with a track-only variant of the car.

The MC20 is offered as a two-seater coupe, with a convertible expected to join the lineup later and eventually an electric MC20 will reach production too. The 3.0-litre V6 twin-turbocharged engine pumps out 630 horsepower. Called Nettuno, the new engine utilizes a unique twin-combustion system borrowed from Formula 1 race cars. 0-100km/h would only take you 2.9 seconds, on your way to a high top speed of 325km/h.

You can expect the MC20 to be available in March this year with a price of around S$748,000 without COE.

McLaren

Artura

The Artura is an all-new model that features a hybrid V6 powertrain and introduces a new platform called MCLA for the British supercar maker. It’s the first plug-in hybrid series production car ever made by McLaren.

The Artura is powered by a 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged V6 engine that produces 680 horsepower and 720 Nm of torque. It takes only 3 seconds to go from 0-100km with a top speed of 330km/h. In electric mode, McLaren says you get a range of up to 30km with a top speed of up to 130km/h.

The McLaren Artura is scheduled to arrive around mid-year, with a starting retail price of just under a million without COE.

Mercedes-Benz

Mercedes-Maybach S-Class

It takes a lot to outclass a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but the 2022 Mercedes-Maybach S-Class does just that. This sedan is a worthy rival to the Bentley Flying Spur or Rolls-Royce Ghost given its number of high-end features.

The S 580 4Matic is powered by a 4.0-litre, twin-turbo V8 petrol engine which is tuned to produce 496 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque. 0-100km/h would take you just 4.4 seconds.

The Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 and S 580 have been priced in Singapore and are available for ordering – read our full news story for all the details.

Pagani

Huayra R

The new Pagani Huayra R will feature a 6.0-litre V-12 engine tuned to produce 850 horsepower and 750 Nm of torque. That’s 130 more horsepower than the ‘regular’ Huayra.

Newly-appointed Pagani distributor Eurokars Supersports (EKSS) has not revealed how many units are reserved for Singapore as there are only 30 units manufactured worldwide. The track-only car will be available in the fourth quarter of 2022, priced at approximately five million Singapore dollars without COE.
