Zenvo DOESN'T deserve the bad reputation surrounding it...

Updated: 29 Nov 2024

First of all, I just want to mention this article on thesupercarkisd.com which reveals the truth behind what happened on the Top Gear episode with the Zenvo ST1, link : http://thesupercarkids.com/zenvo-st1-the-truth-behind-the-top-gear-review/

I just want to remind everyone that there have been countless reports of Ferraris and Lamborghinis catchinhg fire, but they don’t get as much crap as Zenvo simply because it didn’t happen on Top Gear… WHICH SUCKS!

Zenvo Automotive is a great company and the ST1 is most definately a great car………..

…Yet I have even heard people call the Zenvo a “Peice of crap” or “Overpriced garbage”
Calling something that looks so good, sounds so good, and GOES so good a “Peice of crap” or “overpriced garbage” doesn’t make any sense to me.

Just look at it! The exterior design has great attention to detail, and the v8 creates an amazing amount of power. People call it out because there where problems with the clutch when on top gear, they don’t realize that all cars have their limits. There are less people who praise the zenvo for the amazing figures, as it should be, than there are people mocking it for an incident that happened on a TV show.

This incident?

I have to say I think the Zenvo is an amazing car, but I haven’t heard a lot about it. I just read like one article about it and saw it on Top Gear. It must be pretty rare (small brand tho)

Same goes for W Motors. They teamed up with Ruf and others to build their car and to bring the best possible product. The car is completely set up by Ruf. The price (3,4m) is ok considering there are only 7 made. For comparison: one Veyron costs VW 6-8million. But W Motors cant afford to lose so much money because they dont have the huge budget VW has.And W Motors invited potential clients for a test drive in a multi million dollar car thats limited to 7 units. Tell me one manufacturer who would do that. Exactly, there is none.

Not to mention that this is the companies first ever supercar so of course it’ll have some reliability quirks. I’m sure in a few years or so the st1 will be running as intended

People are narrow minded they don’t seem to remember or recall the faults of the more established car companies. It’s very easy to pounce on a new company because they have no history to back them up.

Hey the NSX caught fire too… That seemed to be old news within a week.

Cars have limits. But if a limit for a hypercar that is supposed to do insane speeds and cornering is “Don’t drive it fast” then it’s garbage. It’s supposed to be a super…car. Think about those two words. One means “superior”, second means “means of transportation”. So if it’s feats are being on fire on every occasion it is driven fast, and it’s best used as a pretty garage element, then it’s not “super” and it’s not a “car”.

Also here’s a video of it not at all on fire on a completely separate occasion
