The car on its own comes with maddening features which justifies its extremely high price. It’s a carbon-fibre beast with a curb weight of only 980kg—using animals to show the level of its weight, that’s about 200 cats or 450 Chihuahuas.
This puts it in the ballpark of a Lotus Elise, but with a whole lot more power under the hood.
The Picasso 660 LMS is said to be able to hit 315km/h (196mph) because it’s packing a 3.0 twin-turbo V6 that pumps out 660HP. It’s so surprising that an ultra-lightweight car like this comes with a beasty engine.

The focus of the company is on designing, engineering, and producing high-performance supercars. Noted on the company’s website is that “racing and sustainability are pillars of the Picasso Automotive’s DNA.”
