In July 2015, then little known California-based start-up Trion first unveiled the Nemesis as a full-scale concept model to the public, along with one of the intended drivetrains, much to the surprise of the automotive journals. It is intended for the car to enter production in 2017.

History

After 29 years of extensive experience in the automotive domain, Rich Patterson turned his lifelong dream into reality by assembling a team of professionals and establishing an organization to manufacture advanced supercars for the high-end market segments. He established Trion Supercars (TSC) in May 2012.

The Trion Nemesis RR is a concept vehicle from Trion motors. The company is set to reveal a production version in 2016. Trion expects to start manufacturing process of the Nemesis by the end of 2016 and for the first vehicle to hit the streets in 2017.

In January 2016, the Trion Nemesis RR was unveiled at the Silicon Valley Auto Show. The car received extremely positive reviews from several supercar fans, and the Trion Nemesis RR has been featured in the front page of the SV Auto Show website.

The Trion Nemesis RR has been featured in several games, most notably in Asphalt 8 and CSR Racing.

In November 2016, Trion Supercars showed off the Nemesis in the SEMA show. Days later, they showed off the Nemesis at the LA Auto Show.

Trion Nemesis is currently set to produce four variants: the Nemesis RR, Nemesis GT, Nemesis ER (plug-in hybrid), and Nemesis E (pure electric). Production for the Nemesis RR is limited to 50 vehicles, while the Nemesis GT is limited to 100 vehicles. Production for the Nemesis RR Black Ops, a special version of the Nemesis RR, is limited to 9 vehicles.

Nemesis RR

The Nemesis RR is a mid-engine four wheel drive supercar. The Trion Nemesis RR will be powered by a 9.0L twin turbo charged V8 engine capable of producing 2000 hp. Power will be channelled to all four wheels via an eight-speed sequential transmission. This will be a fully loaded model, complete with all wheel drive, traction management system and 10 speaker JBL infotainment. The Trion Nemesis RR would be competing with the likes of Bugatti Veyron and the Koenigsegg One:1.

The Trion Nemesis RR is set to beat the land speed record and fastest production car record. Additionally, the Trion Nemesis is going to be produced as a street legal vehicle, aiming to become the fastest street legal car.

The Trion Nemesis RR is currently taking preorders, with the base price set at 1.6 million USD.

Black Ops Edition

Trion announced a special version of the Nemesis RR called Black Ops edition, which has several more features and a "predator mode." The predator mode changes interior lighting, engine rev, and suspension to make the car appear even more powerful. The Black Ops edition will also boast additional aesthetic features.

The Black Ops Edition is priced at 1.98 milion USD.
