Alieno Unum, a supercar too beautiful to be real

Supercars are vehicles that go beyond the ordinary. They are cars that offer a range of features that break everything we expect from them and that are within reach of only a handful of people around the world. And speaking of supercars, let’s get to know the Alieno Unum, its ultra-luxury vehicle that is too beautiful to be real.

Alieno was founded in 2015 and announced the launch of the Arcanum, a supercar that was supposed to arrive in 2018, but of which nothing has been seen beyond a few renders. Now, however, with the announcement of the Unum’s launch, the Bulgarian company indicates that both models will share a platform. According to the announcement, this platform was designed and developed in-house and does not come from another manufacturer.

A completely fantastical design

For the car’s design, they assure that they drew inspiration from the Alien Queen from James Cameron’s film, but also from several batmobile designs and other science-fiction vehicles. The result is a curious blend of styles that creates a very aggressive look.

The heritage Lamborghini is also present in the supercar. So much so that Alieno’s CEO claims that if Lamborghini had launched an electric Aventador in 2015, he would never have considered creating the company. Either way, his passion for Lamborghini makes his most intense desire to acquire the ultra-luxury brand and work with its models.

Powertrain of the Alieno Unum

Extravagance also extends to the model’s powertrain. There are two drivetrain variants. The THF, which stands for The Heavenly Founder, is fully electric, while the TRS, short for The Rocket Successor, uses electricity and air to propel itself.

The THF variant comes in four versions: the RP2 with 2,610 CV; the RP3 with 3,481 CV; the RP4 with 4,351 CV and the RP5 with 5,221 CV and 8,880 Nm of torque. The entry-level RP2 has 12 electric motors, three on each wheel. The top-level RP5 adds up to 24 electric motors. This is the largest number of motors ever installed in a car.

The Alieno Unum TRS uses the Alieno octopus synergistic system. It employs cold-air thrusters to help the 24 electric motors move the car and ensure stability during high-speed driving. These air jets also help clear ice or dirt from the road in front of the wheels.

Batteries

The supercar will have several battery packs available, featuring 800-volt technology and Graphene LiPo cells. The racing battery pack will have 60 kWh, while the track battery will be 120 kWh. Finally, the battery designed for road trips will be 180 kWh.

The company claims charging can be completed in just four minutes with a brand-specific 2,700 DC charger, which seems rather unbelievable to us. But if the manufacturer says so, we have no reason not to believe it.

Both models, they say, are ready and homologated to move into production. However, they won’t be ready until 2024, with possible delays pushing that to 2027. The expected prices are 1.8 million euros for the electric model and 2.7 million euros for the air-propelled variant.

We don’t know whether we’ll ever see them on the market, but it certainly seems like a rather interesting car. Will it become reality?
