Oh, it"s on. Shelby Supercars is back, and this 2019 Tuatara a car we first saw many years ago has come to play the part of a very large fly in Koenigsegg and Bugatti"s respective ointments. Why? Because SSC has confirmed that the 2019 Tuatara will produce 1,750bhp. More than the Regera and Agera RS. More than the Chiron. About on par with the Hennessey Venom F5, too (more on that next week). Well, that"s 1,750bhp on E85 flex fuel, at least. On regular 91 Octane, there"s only 1,350bhp. Still, it"s a 5.9-litre V8, nestled in the middle of the car, redlining at 8,800rpm and packing a pair of turbochargers and dual injectors per cylinder.
