Wikipedia defines hypercars as more expensive, highest performing supercars, but in my opinion this simplified explanation is an insult to thousands of hours spent by the teams of engineers, designers and craftsmen who work on these machines so that we could observe out worldly performance and looks.
In this episode of Automotive Territory we will be giving justice to hypercars by acknowledging the most recent introductions to the segment and proving that a 1000 horsepower powertrain is nothing to be impressed about these days.
