Trion Supercars planning the 2000PS hypercar

Team OD Updated: April 02, 2014, 03:22 PM IST

California-based automotive technology firm Trion Supercars is planning a 2000PS hypercar - the Nemesis. Only last month, we were blown away by the 1340PS Koenigsegg one:1 hypercar, but it seems like it doesn't quite cut it for Trion.

With Nemesis, Trion Supercars hopes to challenge the dominance of European hypercar  brands such as Koenigsegg and Bugatti. The company says that the Nemesis will be an ultra-luxurious, high-performance vehicle with everyday practicality. The engine planned for this is a twin-turbo charged V8 capable of more than 2000PS and mated to an eight-speed sequential transmission. Once built, the hypercar is expected to hit 100kmph from standstill in under 3 seconds with a top speed of 434.5kmph.

The body will be constructed from the lightweight and strong carbon fibre material with the chassis made out of Inconel alloys. The car will also feature a 'Predator Mode' which will modify the car's height, interior illumination, exhaust, suspension and even rev limits.

The Rich Patterson Story


In May 2012, CEO Rich Patterson turned a lifelong dream into reality by assembling Trion SuperCars (TSC). After 29 years of working in the automotive industry, he was able to bring together a super team of professionals to execute his vision. Patterson's love affair with all things automotive began at age 15 when he won a Michigan statewide drafting contest and was selected to participate in an apprenticeship at the General Motors Fisher Body Group. As a young man from the inner city, Patterson worked hard and studied tirelessly to excel in an environment of seasoned professionals. This passion became his life's work at such a young age. Following his apprenticeship, Patterson accepted a position as a CAD designer at Modern Engineering. There he developed an expertise for automobile interior systems, mechanical systems, along with occupant packaging and comfort. His leadership skills were quickly recognized and he was soon promoted to a supervisory roles. Patterson continued to sharpen and expand his knowledge and professional tool set in automotive design, interior packaging and kinematics over two decades working for some of the biggest companies in the automotive industry including Chrysler. While there, he was part of the creation of the revolutionary "Stow 'n Go" seating. Thereafter, he relocated to the West Coast to be closer to the hub of design innovation and expand his skills. While on the West Coast he has helped create a fully functional seating buck at Tesla Motors design studio in CA and laid out an ergonomic and spacious interior for the ground breaking Model S electric sedan. He also contributed similar efforts at Fisker Automotive. Along with his love for all things automotive, Patterson is a man with strong family values and is dedicated to give back to his community. He enjoys mentoring inner city youth. He has also used his industry resources in his native Detroit to develop a curriculum for the public school system teaching mechanical drafting to kids after it was dropped due to budget cuts.
