According to Drako, the Dragon will be “the most powerful, quickest, and fastest production hyper-luxury SUV in history.”
The brand actually calls this SUV the “SuperSUV,” and it’s not hard to see why.
The SUV comes with 2,000 horsepower and is more powerful than almost any hypercar out there.
The Drako Dragon SUV was designed with aerodynamic principles in mind. Even wing mirrors, for example, have been replaced with slim cameras that display on dashboard screens.
The body is made from composite material to keep the weight down. Nothing was left to chance.
For example, the gullwing doors serve a specific purpose. They’re cool, obviously, but they also make it easier for passengers to get in and out of the car.
The fact that the car doesn’t need any B-Pillars help.
Interior Look Of The Drako Dragon SUV
Inside you’ll find thick, plush seats upholstered in leather and the usual array of screens.
There’s a massive 17.1-inch screen on the dashboard and another behind the instrument cluster’s steering wheel. In addition, there are two screens for rear passengers positioned on the headrests of the front seats.
The Engine & Performance Of The Drako Dragon SUV
The Dragon is powered by a four-motor electric powertrain, capable of propelling the SUV from 0 to 60 mph in just 1.9 seconds.
The top speed of the SUV is 200 mph. It’s not bad for what is essentially a family car.
Price Of The Drako Dragon
The base price of the Drako Dragon starts at $290,000. The company expects to deliver around 5,000 units a year starting in 2026.
