The top speed is 249 hp and 0-60 happens in 1.9 seconds, making this a brilliant way to scare three of your closest friends. The roomy Gemera packs 1,700 hp and 2,581 lb-ft of torque. That is, until you realize it’s from Koenigsegg, and things like seats and cylinder counts tell little of the story. With seating for four and a three-cylinder engine, the Koenigsegg Gemera doesn’t sound like the kind of vehicle that’d make a list for fastest cars in the world. Unlike the 300-plus-mph Jesko and Venom F5, we have little doubt of the Speedtail’s relatively reasonable max velocity. And anyway, 250 mph is pretty damn impressive, as is the zero-to-60 sprint of 2.9 seconds. The new McLaren Speedtail won’t reclaim the F1’s record with its promised 250-mph top speed, but the 1,036-hp, $2-million hypercar is arguably the prettiest car on this list. The legendary F1 held the record for over two decades, until the Bugatti Veyron arrived. More than nearly any other brand on this list, McLaren knows about building record-breaking hypercars.

Unleashed on the right road, this mid-engine Aston will hit 60 in 2.5 seconds and carry on to a top speed of over 250 mph. It comes at very high engine speeds, with the V12 packing an 11,000-rpm redline.

The Valkyrie features a naturally aspirated, Cosworth-sourced V12 and hybrid system to produce 1,160 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque, but it’s how that power arrives. The Valkyrie is a change of tact, the result of a partnership between Aston and its Formula One partner, Red Bull Racing, to build a world-beating hypercar. Price: $2.5 Million Aston Martin ValkyrieĪston Martin has never really played in the hypercar space, instead contenting itself to build excellent and beautiful grand tourers. On properly warmed rubber, that time fell to just 8.58 seconds. But while the 258-mph top speed is deeply impressive, we’re more bewildered by the 1.97-second to 62 mph and the world-beating quarter-mile time, where it took just 8.74 seconds all while on cold tires. The sleek Croatian hypercar packs four electric motors with a total output of 1,914 horsepower and 1,740 pound-feet of torque. If there was ever a question as to whether electrification is the future of performance, Rimac ( now teamed with Bugatti) is on a mission to answer “YES” with cars like the Nevera. Those figures are fitting for a car with a $1.9-million price tag. That's quite a bit slower than its alleged 316-mph average, but it's still more than quick enough for this supercar, with its 1,750 hp and 1,280 lb-ft of torque. After some uncertainty surrounding its first attempt, the American automaker made a second run in January 2021 and set a blistering two-way average of 282.9 mph at the Johnny Bohmer Proving Grounds at Space Florida's Shuttle Landing Facility. That said, we wouldn’t count on the Jesko being allowed to hit 330: the best place on the planet for an attempt, the Ehra-Lessien proving grounds in north-central Germany, belongs to Bugatti’s parent company, Volkswagen.Īh, the SSC Tuatara. With 1,600 hp and 1,106 lb-ft of torque from a twin-turbocharged 5.0-liter V8 and a slippery body that still offers significant downforce, the $2.8-million Swedish monster has the credentials for a high-speed run.

Yes, it’s based on math, but no Jesko Absolut has cracked 330 yet. But while most other cars on this list have reached their top speeds, the 330-mile-per-hour V-max here is only theoretical. Koenigsegg knows a thing or six about building mental hypercars and the Jesko Absolut is the latest example. But for some additional context – and because it's more achievable in the real world – we've also included how long each takes to hit 60 mph. Here’s a complete ranking of the fastest cars in the world according to top speed. What was once a quest for 200 mph in a production car now sits at 300, as automakers strive to add more power, smarter aerodynamics, and begin to implement electric motors, all in the name of going faster.
