Nilu 27 Black Water/Park Black in 1:18 scale
This is the Nilu 27 Black Water/Park Black in 1:18 scale by MotorHelix.
The NILU hypercar is a radical new entrant into the ultra-high performance segment, built by designer Sasha Selipanov and his boutique marque Nilu27. What sets it apart is its unapologetic embrace of analog performance in an era of electrified hypercars: at its heart lies a bespoke 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 (the “Hot V” configuration) delivering over 1,000 horsepower and paired with a gated 7-speed manual transmission.The minimalist interior shuns digital dashboards, offering instead true driver-centric controls, while the exposed engine bay, 3D-printed Inconel exhaust headers, and push-rod suspension geometry ensure this machine isn’t just about speed, but about mechanical purity and visceral engagement.
MotorHelix’s approach pays respect to the original. Their 1:18 scale Nilu 27 model is designed to replicate the dynamic silhouette, the bold wing, the cut-away engine bays and the dramatic suspension geometry. In the model world the scale of detail matters: resin is chosen for its fine fidelity, metal and 3D-printed parts may feature in the build, and finishes honour the full-size car’s materials. With only restricted production numbers globally, this isn’t a model that sits quietly on a shelf — it commands attention.
