This article presents the 25 fastest cars that were created for everyday use, not just on the racetrack. The list also includes exclusive car models that are also suitable for normal roads.
DON'T MISS: 25 FASTEST CARS IN THE WORLD. PART 1
12. Zenvo ST1
Zenvo ST1 is a supercar made in Denmark. This sports car has 1,100 horsepower under the hood and therefore there can be no doubt about its top speed, which is 374 km / h. Such a large engine needs powerful fans to cool it, otherwise the car will simply ignite on the fly.
11. Koenigsegg Regera
It wasn't good to put the Koenigsegg Regera in the top 10 since there were no official test drives. However, it would be indecent not to include it on this list, since under the hood this handsome man has 1,479 horsepower. Koenigsegg tests showed that it accelerates to 299 km / h in 11 seconds, many say that under certain circumstances this model can accelerate to 402 km / h.
10. Koenigsegg One: 1
The power-to-weight ratio of a vehicle is important when trying to reach top speed. In the case of the Koenigsegg One: 1, the Swedish automaker has achieved a perfect formula of 1341 horsepower comparable to a weight of 1360 kg. The formula worked, and in 2016 Koenigsegg showed all its power. First, he broke the record of 320 km / h, and a day later he smashed the figure of 386 km / h. Impressive!
9. Saleen S7 Twin Turbo
In 2005, when Saleen perfected the S7 with a twin-turbo design, only one car off the racetrack was able to accelerate to 399 km / h. The S7 was powered by a 750 horsepower 7-liter V8 engine, so there was something to brag about. So, the speed of 399 km / h does not seem far-fetched, especially considering that the car reached a speed of 96 km / h in 2.8 seconds.
8. Koenigsegg CCR
When Koenigsegg released the CCX, Koenigsegg claimed a top speed of over 394 km / h, but we know for sure that in 2005 the CCX's predecessor, the CCR (2004), reached a top speed of 389 km / h. This race brought Koenigsegg a world record. It is important to note that this vehicle is legal on public roads.
7. McLaren F1
In 1988, following its revolutionary ideas, McLaren decided that it would build the world's best public road car. A quarter of a century later, the F1 model is available in limited numbers, as only 64 examples were made for public use, and their speed was electronically limited to 386 km / h. However, at least two examples of the F1 model accelerate to 391 km / h despite the speed limiter.
6.9ff GT9-R
The GT9-R model was designed in 2009, this car is fraught with 1120 horsepower, in the development stage the expected speed was equal to 413 km / h, but the model was slightly inferior and accelerated to only 408 km / h.
5. SSC Ultimate Aero TT
The SSC Ultimate Aero, the predecessor to the SSC Ultimate Aero TT, broke the world speed record set by the Bugatti Veyron in 2007, reaching 410 km / h. Later, Ultimate Aero TT accelerated to 413 km / h, many experts claim that this car can reach speeds of up to 439 km / h.
4. Koenigsegg Agera RS
Given the fanatical attention to detail of Koenigsegg's car designers, it should come as no surprise that this Swedish company makes it to the top five. The Agera RS models are based on the developments of the previous Agera models and brought them to perfection. The engine power was increased (1,160 horsepower), the maximum revs were increased, and the body became lighter. Thanks to engine power, the RS reached a top speed of 321 km / h in 17.68 seconds and a top speed of 418 km / h.
3. Bugatti Chiron
The Bugatti Chiron has an 8.0-liter W16 engine that produces 1,479 horsepower. The car reaches a speed of 299 km / h in 13.6 seconds, and then electronically limited to 420 km / h. Will this model go above its maximum speed without a limiter like the Bugatti from the Veyron Super Sport? An extra 300 horses will help him do that, and the Chiron will hit the target. This model will set a new speed record for road cars in 2018, according to the CEO of Bugatti.
2. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
In 2010, representatives of Bugatti took the Veyron to the Volkswagen test track and there the model showed a speed of 431.07 km / h. The world record was broken, and a new champion appeared in the world. Later, the Veyron Grand Sport set a record for open-top cars with a speed of 408 km / h.
1. Hennessey Venom GT
According to some reports, the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is the fastest representative among the cars in the consumer market. However, according to the results of some test drives, the speed champion is the Hennessey Venom GT model, which in 2014 showed a speed of 434 km / h. Hennessey says the Venom GT can reach a top speed of 447 km / h.
