New 1,750-hp SSC Tuatara Striker (w/ startup)

A new silver SSC Tuatara Striker with red accents, one of 100 units being built, arriving at and leaving Ancillary Studios at South Coast Plaza during its Pre-Monterey Gathering (a.k.a. "Prebble"), hosted in partnership with Zuma Cars & Coffee. Introduced in May 2021, the Striker is a high-downforce version of the Tuatara featuring aerodynamic enhancements including a larger front splitter, new rear diffuser, and fixed rear wing. It is powered by the same 5.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine from the base Tuatara producing 1,750 horsepower.

Would you choose a Tuatara over other similarly-priced hypercars? Leave a comment and let me know!

[@j400wel]

No.

[@dnice362]

Hello no. Seggs are king

[@focusrsawd5034]

Tuatara all the way

[@Jesko.]

@@dnice362 Agera rs is slower than the ssc tuatara and the jesko ain't tested stfu about ' kings ' child.

[@captain_context9991]

What I find incredible is that they were nowhere to be seen at the car week. Every super / hyper / megacar in the world, but no Tuataras. Made me think the company had died. And its incredible how little press or talk it gets even from American car KZbinrs.

[@alexfischer7876]

Glad to see this hypercar finally reaching production stage. _Tuatara Aggressor_ would be great to see, as well.

[@TimidSylveon]

Goodness, that's such a gorgeous machine. Aside from the digital panel on the centre console, every single part of it looks as if it was designed for one specific purpose. Even the door design doesn't shy away from the hinge components' noise by dampening it; leaving it to feel like you're entering a specifically crafted machine at the edge of automotive engineering where practicalities are foreign.

Best lookin hypercar

There's is no other car in this fucking world which is as sick as a SSC tuatara Striker (In my opinion)

[@focusrsawd5034]

Wow 😮 what a amazing SSC TUATARA striker sounds so good .

[@nakullekurwale5525]

No matter what anybody says but for me it is the best looking car❤ I have ever witnessed. It is like a demon with a angle face

[@Northanteus]

And also know this was designed over a decade ago. I remember when I saw pictures of it, this was easily best looking cars in the world.

[@nicholastaylor1444]

Did anybody notice at the end when the SSC is pulling out Shmee's million dollar plus purple full cabin fiber Zenvo is in the background and the crowd does not even notice it, that's testimony to the presence of the SSC Tuatara Striker.

[@athlonkaveri6036]

Looking like a new hyper Boss ;-)

[@sebas-x9792]

I was on route 80 NJ and I saw a glimpse of the car sitting in traffic. Might be wrong but I think it was this car.

[@carlosbellido2866]

Este coche siemore me ha gustado bastante se veahora con mrejor rediseñado con mas caballos de poder y un sonido retimbador de poder aunque se me puede nejorar

[@bruceknows]

For me it's Bugatti Chiron SS, then the Jesko, then the SSC Tuatara, then the Hennessey F5. The Tuatara is gorgeous, though and I respect what they're doing as a small manufacturer. But, SSC really, really, REALLY, needs to hit that 300mph two way goal if theyre ever going to live down the fake top speed run. Clearly, holding the record at 291mph has done nothing to help them get positive press.

[@Waltube.]

Could sound smoother with a unique sound like no other, that's the next thing they need to work on, but that power 😱 and looks amazing, it's ageing well

[@Northanteus]

It's an American engine, so it won't have high rev sound like Europeans. 🤣

[@christianlekstrom2398]

I hope you are jokeing when you say it´s ageing well?

[@Northanteus]

@@christianlekstrom2398 The design of this car is over a decade old, so its design was ahead of its time.

[@willthornton800]

The side pov kinda look like a pagani huyara

[@waynedouglas5150]

Im probably wrong but it sounds like the clutch is being murdered i feel like it should have a F1 type gear box or something it looks amazing though.

[@CaptainKedah]

clutch 😢

[@Hothead-Gaming]

I would drive this cuz I have a 1000 hp collection (dont worry it's just a comment)

Not the best sounding exhaust but still a cool car.

334 MPH

[@audioelitist3677]

@@amarjit_singh_ Right. This car has a lot more drag for downforce, and as such, less top end speed.

Sounds like a drag racer..

That's so true, I don't like it

Ye I'd choose Tuatara Striker over any of the competition , European or otherwise.....Only one big question ? is it a proper production car or show & display......It matters!......Still , this car is Badass and sound's like European exotica. Good job SSC.

[@ExoticAffinity]

I believe it's street legal - Show and Display only applies to imported cars.

[@rogerpayne5336]

@@ExoticAffinity Ok ! Cool bro..... Excellent car.

[@amarjit_singh_]

@@ExoticAffinityWhat about the Venom F5? It will be sold under show and display as per John Hennessey!

[@ExoticAffinity]

As far as I know (per Henessey's website and various review articles), the Venom F5 is street-legal.

[@amarjit_singh_]

@@ExoticAffinity It will be sold under show and display, like McLaren SpeedTail, so it can be driven on the road but limited miles in an year! This was confirmed by John Hennessey to Car and Driver! 'Lacking airbags, the F5 won't have full federal homologation. John Hennessey said the car will be sold under the "show and display" exemption.' Edit: Don't expect someone like Hennessey to write about not achieving full federal homologation with the Venom F5 on their website! A car without airbags, nowadays can't be considered street legal!

[@BigCroca]

sounds like it has a horse throat lol

[@audioelitist3677]

I'm just not convinced of the engineering. Without a doubt, it's an outstanding automobile, but I don't think it's engineered half as well as other contenders. Given the car's power vs drag, we should be looking at a car that hits 340MPH, and while the car holds a 2 way world record of 286MPH, that's a far cry of what the engineering suggests it should be able to do. That's concerning to me. It's also concerning to me the first record wasn't done accurately. I would say faked, but as there's a very small chance this claim was made in ignorance of the reality of the situation, I'll stick with done with gross inaccuracies.

[@tejathe9526]

worst exhaust

Awesome...sounds just like a Yamaha Wave Runner....kinda looks like one too.
