Top 20 Fastest Cars In The World (Part 2)

5. Bugatti Chiron (261+ Mph)


The next fastest cars in the world is Bugatti Chiron. Named for a legendary centaur in Greek mythology, the Chiron is intended to improve upon the Veyron in every way. Hitting 261 mph using street-legal settings, the 1500-hp Chiron is like a beast in chains.



On the racetrack, Bugatti aims to break those chains, as well as the current speed record. For now, its top speed remains a mystery to the public.




Although the Chiron is built like a race car, one needn’t be a professional to operate it. The car is engineered to automatically adjust its machinery as the speed increases or decreases, ensuring optimal performance.


6. SSC Ultimate Aero (256 Mph)


Shelby Super Cars (SSC) has nothing to do with Carroll Shelby of Cobra fame, but for a moment, its Ultimate Aero was the fastest production car in the world. It hit 256 mph in 2007, beating the non-Super Sport version of the Veyron.


7. Aston Martin Valkyrie (250 Mph, Claimed)






Aston Martin teamed up with Red Bull Racing to develop the Valkyrie, a supercar that benefits from technology fine-tuned in the Formula 1 paddock.




Though the final version hasn’t been released yet, we know it will use a mid-mounted, 6.5-liter V12 engine tuned to make 900 hp. That’s an impressive stat on its own, but the 12-cylinder is part of a hybrid powertrain in this application.




Aston predicts the Valkyrie’s total output will lie in the vicinity of 1,130 hp, enough for a 250-hp top speed. Check back to see if the production figure lives up to those predictions.


8. Tesla Roadster (250 Mph, Claimed)


Revealed as a surprise at the end of the Tesla Semi unveiling, the second-generation Roadster features the most impressive spec sheet of any EV before it: 0 to 60 mph in 1.9 seconds, 0 to 100 mph in 4.2 seconds, and a claimed top speed of 250 mph.



While these numbers remain unconfirmed at this time, the Roadster’s 200kWh battery pack is absolutely massive and will undoubtedly push performance EVs to an entirely new level. The biggest battery you can get in a Model S or Model X is half that size, by the way.
