Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+
The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ is the epitome of speed.
With a top speed of over 300 miles (483 Kph) per hour , it holds the title of the fastest car in the world. Its sleek design and powerful engine make it a true masterpiece of engineering.
Top speed: 304mph
0-60mph: 2.2 seconds
What Is The Price Of The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport?
This is a review of the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport, a car so expensive almost nobody could buy it new. And even if you did have an offshore account balance a couple years ago sturdy enough for the $3.8 million buy-in—$4.3 million as-tested if you must know—Bugatti today has none left to sell.
SSC Tuatara
The SSC Tuatara is not far behind with a top speed of 300 miles (482 Kph) per hour. Its sleek and futuristic design, combined with its powerful engine, make it a sight to behold.
Top speed: 295mph
0-60mph: 2.5 seconds
This American-made car is a symbol of speed and innovation.
Hennessey Venom F5
The Hennessey Venom F5 is a true beast on the road. With a top speed of 301 miles (484 Kph) per hour, it comes in a close second to the Bugatti Chiron. Its aerodynamic design and impressive horsepower make it a force to be reckoned with.
Top speed: 272mph (for now)
0-60mph: 2.6 seconds
The folks in the USA are smashing the top speed game recently, with third place going to another all-American supercar. The Hennessey Venom F5 has a 6.6-litre twin-turbocharged V8 with 1,817hp and 1,617Nm of torque.
That’s enough to launch it from 0-60mph in 2.6 seconds, and it’ll go onto a top speed of 272mph – for now. Hennessey want’s to get even more out of the F5, with the firm targeting a top speed of over 300mph.
Rimac C_Two- Rimac Nevera
The Rimac C_Two is a stunning electric hypercar. With a top speed of 258 miles per hour, it proves that electric cars can be just as fast as their gasoline counterparts. Its sleek design and advanced technology make it a game-changer in the world of speed.
Top speed: 258mph
0-60mph: 1.9 seconds
Electric cars offer instant acceleration thanks to the torque from their electric motors, however the added weight of the batteries can limit them in terms of top speed. This isn’t the case for the Rimac Nevera though.
This ballistic EV hypercar has four electric motors, producing a whopping 1,914hp and 2,300Nm of torque. That’s enough to launch it from 0-60mph in just 1.9 seconds, and it can go on to a top speed of 258mph. It’s made almost entirely out of carbon fibre to keep the weight down, but this isn’t just some stripped-out drag racer. The interior is a lovely place to be and you still get all the luxuries you’d expect of a car that costs £2 million.
McLaren Speedtail
The McLaren Speedtail is a masterpiece of engineering. With a top speed of 250 miles per hour, it lives up to its name. Its sleek design and innovative features make it a true contender in the world of speed.
Top speed: 250mph
0-60mph: 2.5 seconds
McLaren didn’t design the Speedtail to chase world records, but, with a 250mph top speed, it’s the fastest road car it has ever built.
That’s faster than its last three-seat car — the legendary McLaren F1. Its super-slippery bodywork lacks and drag-inducing wings and means it looks like something ripped straight from a futuristic cyberpunk film. Just think about carrying two of your mates at that speed…
Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut and Koenigsegg Regera
The Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut is a true marvel of engineering. With a top speed of 330 miles (531 Kph) per hour, it is one of the fastest cars in the world. Its aerodynamic design and powerful engine make it a dream come true for speed enthusiasts.
Top speed: 250mph
0-60mph: 2.8 seconds
Matching the Speedtail is the Koenigsegg Regera. This Swedish speed machine comes with a twin-turbo V8 engine and an electric motor that produce a total of 1,500hp.
Unlike any other car on this list, the Regera can go from 0-250mph using just ONE gear. Yep, no matter if you’re cruising at 30mph or aiming to hit its 250mph top speed (on a closed course, not the M1) you’ll be in the same gear. Seems a little bonkers.
Aston Martin Valkyrie
The Aston Martin Valkyrie is a true work of art. With a top speed of 250 miles per hour, it combines beauty and speed in one package. Its aerodynamic design and powerful engine make it a force to be reckoned with on the road.
Top speed: 250mph
0-60mph: 2.2 seconds
You may not think, based on appearances, that the Aston Martin Valkyrie is road legal. It might look like a full-blown LeMans racer, but you can really drive it on the street.
Mounted behind the driver is a 6.5-litre hybrid V12 with 1,160hp, capable of pushing this F1 inspired road-racer from 0-60mph in 2.5 seconds. Not really surprising when you realise that it weighs just over a tonne.
Pagani Huayra
Top speed: 238mph
0-60mph: 3.2 seconds
The Pagani Huayra is a fantastic looking car. Every detail is exquisite, and it’s more than just a pin-up as well. It has an AMG derived twin-turbocharged V12 engine putting out 730hp and 1,000Nm of torque, enough for a top speed of 238mph.
The Huayra is made mostly of carbon fibre to keep the weight down, as well as to make it more rigid, and it’s covered in active aero to help it slip through the air more easily.
Lamborghini Revuelto
Top speed: 217mph
0-60mph: 2.5 seconds
In a world of downsizing and forced induction, the lunatics at Lamborghini have stuck with a naturally aspirated V12 for its new flagship Revuelto. That’s not to say it’s completely unassisted, as you also get three electric motors to boost the power.
Specifically, you get a combined 1,015hp, more than any road-going Lamborghini ever made. 0-60mph is dealt with in 2.5 seconds, and it’ll go on to a top speed of 217mph.
Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut
Top speed: 310mph (in theory)
0-60mph: 2.5 seconds
It’ll come as no surprise that Koenigsegg has made this list twice, as they’re very good at making bonkers hypercars. The Jesko Absolut gets a twin-turbocharged V8 with up to 1,600hp when it’s running on E85 race fuel.
You might be wondering why, with a claimed top speed of 310mph, the Jesko Absolut isn’y at the top of this list. Well, Koenigsegg hasn’t actually tested the top speed in real life, but instead has only simulated it using a computer. You’ll have to wait until it gets run for real before it can take the top spot.
Fastest cars FAQs
What is the fastest production car in the world?
The fastest production car in the world is currently the Bugatti Chiron Supersport 300+ thanks to its 304mph top speed, although the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut could topple the Bugatti from the position in the near future.
What is the fastest car from 0-60mph?
What is the fastest anyone has gone in a car?
In terms of production cars, Bugatti test driver Andy Wallace drove the Chiron Supersport 300+ to its 304mph top speed. The fastest anyone has gone in any car is 763mph, which was done by Andy Green in the land-speed-record-breaking Thrust SSC jet-powered car – though that is about as far away from a production car as it’s possible to get.
These cars are not just about speed; they represent the pinnacle of automotive engineering. Whether you’re a speed enthusiast or simply appreciate the beauty of these machines, these cars are sure to leave a lasting impression.
