in #cars7 years ago

Car manufacturers are constantly competing with each other of who can make the fastest, most beautiful, most comfortable and most luxurious car. And as you can imagine the result of this are some truly incredible cars rolling out of the factories.

So what are the fastest production cars in the world? Here are the top 5 of them.

5. Bugatti Chiron: 261 MPH / 420 KM/H

While a lot of supercars have to give up some luxury for better performance but not this car. Easily one of the most luxurious and fastest cars in the world. It does 261 MPH in total comfort and luxury. Launched in 2016 only 500 have been made. It's 8,0 liter 16 cylinder W16 engine with 4 turbochargers produces 1479hp to all four wheels with 1,180 lb·ft of torque @ 2,000 – 6,000 rpm making it go 0-60 in a blistering 2.5 seconds.

4. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport:  268 MPH / 431 KM/H

The Super Sport is a faster and more powerful version of the Bugatti Veyron 16.4. It's 8,0 liter turbocharged W16 engine produces 1,200hp with a max torque of 1106 lb∙ft @ 3,000–5,000 rpm. It accelerates from 0-60mph in just 2.4 seconds. Launched in 2010 it amazed car enthusiasts across the world with a Guinness World Records title; the fastest production car in the world.

3. Hennessey Venom GT: 270MPH / 434 KM/H

Hennessey achieved a 270mph run in 2014 at the Kennedy Space Center but in order for the speed to be considered legitimate, the test runs must be completed in both directions which Hennessey didn't do.  The Venom GT achieves its speed from a very good power to weight ratio. Under its hood is a 7,0 liter twin-turbo V8 producing 1244 bhp to the rear wheels while it only weighs  2743 lb / 1244 Kg. That makes 1 bhp per 1 kg. With 1,155 lb⋅ft of torque @ 4,400 rpm it accelerates from 0-60mph in  2.7 seconds.

2. Koenigsegg Agera RS: 279 mph / 447 KM/H

The Koenigsegg Agera RS is an advanced version of the Agera R. Its focus is on a race track but it's still very enjoyable for everyday use on road. New technology from the One:1 has been implemented into this car while combining the features from the Agera S and Agera R. It has been called the ultimate track tool because of its lightweight and track optimized performance. It is powered by a 5,0 liter V8 producing 1160hp on regular pump gas. An optional 1-megawatt package increases the engine power to 1341bhp. All that power while weighing only 3,075 lbs / 1,395 kg. That makes 2.62 lb / 1.19 kg  per horsepower. It also produces 450 kg / 992 lb of downforce at 250 km/h / 155mph. 


1. Hennessey Venom F5: 301 mph / 484 KM/H

The estimated launch date of the Venom F5 is in 2019. Hennessey has claimed a top speed of 301 mph / 484 km/h through a V-MAX speed-tracking system. It has a new 2950 lb carbon fiber chassis that is being pushed through space and time by a 7,4 liter twin-turbo V8 producing 1600hp, it has been revealed later while still in development that the engine is going to have a larger capacity than 8,0 liters. Hennessey is predicting the car will go from 0-186mph / 0-300km/h in under 10 seconds and 0-249mph / 0-400 km/h in under 20 seconds.
