Tesla Roadster
Do you like your engines with pistons, grease and spark-plugs? If so, skip ahead to the next supercar. The Tesla's Lotus-derived body looks stunning in person-- as does the mass of wires, batteries and computer modules in its mid-mounted engine room. Drivers can go straight past the gas-station with this one. It runs solely on electrons, and in near-silence.
Dodge Viper ACR
The Dodge Viper ACR might be the vehicular 'opposite' of the Tesla Roadster. It's got the highest-displacement car engine on the road today, heat-extractors on everything, and is followed around by plenty of noise. Cars don't get much bigger attitudes than this.
HTT Plethore
Have you heard? Canada is building a supercar! The Quebec-manufactured HTT Plethore was on display at the CIAS, complete with its 750-horsepower supercharged GM V8 engine. Pricing is set somewhere in the $400,000 ballpark-- though it's not for sale in Canada anytime soon.
