The Mada 9 is currently in a prototype stage. The car is powered by Toyota’s 1.8-litre DOHC 16-valve VVT-i, 4-cylinder petrol engine, which was introduced in the 2004 generation of the Corolla sedan. Engineers have taken more than five years to make this car. In stock form, this engine generated between 166 and 187 hp in Toyota cars. Nothing can be said about whether the power has been increased in Mada 9 or not. At present, no information has been given about how much power this engine generates in Mada 9 or whether any tuning has been done in it or not.
Electric version may come
According to Afghanistan’s Tolo News, many changes are expected in its engine or power. The petrol engine in the Mada 9 could be replaced by an electric powertrain till the production version is ready. During the introduction of the Mada 9, Abdul Baqi Haqqani, the Taliban’s minister of higher education, reportedly said that the supercar proves that the Taliban regime is committed to providing religion and modern science for its people.
