Great Wall Motors will launch a SF90 rival this year!

Rumors :

- All new twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8
- +1000hp
- Will be show in November
- Will be sold worldwide
- Under €300K

They need to price it at less than 250K euros with at least 1100PS to give it a worthwhile edge over the SF90. The Ferrari already has 1000hp.

Agree, some rumors said the car will be sold in EU starting at €220K.

First look at the GWM GF platform, developed by ex McLaren engineer and ready for track and beyond. Mid engined V8 and carbon chassis.

The front and headlights give me Ferrari 296 vibes, but its certainly going to an interesting looking car.

The price is too high for an unknow Chinese car that lacks credibility and image against Ferrari and McLaren supercars. It should be less than $200K then it could be worth having a look at.

First China flooded the market with EVs, now they’re gonna build the real things.
