Dubai-based supercar marque W Motors has confirmed its presence at this week’s Monterey Car Week.
The company has brought its two models, the original Lykan Hypersport as well as the newer Fenyr Supersport.
The Lykan has previously made the trip to Monterey but for the Fenyr the appearance will mark the car’s North American debut.

The Fenyr Supersport was only revealed to the world in late 2015. The car comes with a 900-horsepower twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter flat-6 engine developed by famous Porsche tuning firm RUF. Power is routed to the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, enabling the car to hit 62 in under 2.7 seconds and top out at nearly 250 mph.
Although pricing is yet to be announced, the car will be less expensive than the $3.4 million Lykan Hypersport, which despite being pricier comes with a tamer 770-hp output. The reason is partially due to the Fenyr Supersport not being as exclusive as the Lykan Hypersport, as W Motors plans to build 25 units in total versus the 7 Lykan Hypersports it built. The cars also lack some of the pricier elements of the Lykan Hypersport such as diamond-encrusted headlights.
W Motors says it will be making several stops in the United States as part of its “American Tour,” though the company is yet to reveal other locations. W Motors also hasn’t said which events during Monterey Car Week it will be attending, though an appearance at the flagship Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance on August 21 is likely.
