Synopsis[]
"Originally headquartered in Lebanon but now based in Dubai, W Motors is the dream of Ralph Debbas, who started the company at 22 years of age. Debbas wanted to create something that bled exclusivity and was bred from the core of hypercar performance. When the car debuted to none other than His Royal Highness the Prince of Monaco, it was established as not only regal but astounding in its presentation of diamond encrusted headlamps and a raging Porsche power plant. Never has there been a car company with such ostentatious goals and substantive results."—Official description[1]
W Motors was founded by Ralph Debbas on July 11, 2012 in Beirut, Lebanon. The company's headquarters was eventually moved to Dubai, UAE on January 1, 2013, with the company's first car, the Lykan HyperSport, being unveiled four weeks later as a concept car. The Lykan HyperSport was eventually unveiled in its production form at the 2013 Dubai International Motor Show, with only seven units planned and produced.
In 2015, W Motors unveiled Lykan HyperSport successor Fenyr SuperSport in concept form, with its production form being officially unveiled on November 29, 2017. On that same day, W Motors opened their new showroom in Dubai.[2]
W Motors uses parts sourced from Porsche and Porsche tuner company RUF.
