Automobile giants struggle with each other every year to get the fastest car on the asphalt. These brands, which want to be the fastest on both the track and the street, produce cars that will make car enthusiasts happy at the end of the day. So after such a struggle, which models enter the list of the fastest cars in the world?
Of course, it is not easy to produce the fastest car in the world and to prove it to the whole world after producing it. For example, a brand that we will talk about later in our article had to struggle for months in order to prove that it produced the fastest car. If you wish, let’s take a closer look at our list of 5 cars, which are the fastest cars in the world in 2022.
Here are the fastest cars in the world
Editor’s note: The cars on our list are listed according to their maximum output per hour, not their horsepower.
- Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut
- Hennessey Venom F5
- Bugatti Bolide
- Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+
- SSC Tuatara
5- SSC Tuatara
SSC Tuatara enters our list of the fastest cars in the world, from the last row we have prepared for you. Don’t be fooled that this car is in last place. Because Shelby Supercar’s has designed a mind-blowing car, even though it barely took the title of the fastest car in the world at one time and lost it right after.
According to the data released by the SSC, the maximum speed that Tuatara can reach is approximately 532 kilometers per hour. However, Shelby Supercar’s never accelerated the car to these speeds in its trials last year, and on top of that, it was accused of cheating on speedometers. Although it cannot reach 532 kilometers per hour, we can say that the Tuatara is quite fast.
This vehicle, which produces more than 1350 horsepower thanks to a 5.8-liter V8 gasoline engine, accelerates from 100 kilometers per hour to 200 kilometers per hour in an incredible 2.5 seconds. In addition, as a result of the trials, it was stated that the maximum speed of the vehicle was 455 kilometers per hour. Let’s not forget that the price of this vehicle is “only” 19 million dollars.
4- Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+
Our next vehicle belongs to Bugatti, one of the favorite brands of all sports car lovers. As you know, the Bugatti Chiron has already become a legend, but with the Super Sport 300+, this model has entered the list of the fastest cars in the world from the 4th place.
Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+, one of the first models to pass the 480 kilometers per hour speed barrier, produces a total of 1,600 horsepower with its 8-liter four-turbocharged engine. The price of this vehicle, which completes its climb from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in just 2.3 seconds, is approximately 3.5 million dollars.
3- Bugatti Bolide
Having received great acclaim with the Chiron Super Sport 300+, Bugatti decided to reinforce this success with another model called Bolide. Just like its brother, the Bolide, which has an 8-liter 4-turbocharged engine, normally produces 1548 horsepower. However, when the vehicle is refueled with 110 octane racing fuel, Bolide can reach a power of 1850 horsepower.
Boldie, which is a vehicle produced only for the track, is of course forbidden to take to the roads. It is quite surprising that Boldie, which is only 995 millimeters above the ground, weighs only 1240 kilograms. This vehicle, which looks like it came from another planet in terms of design, accelerates from 0 to 200 kilometers per hour in 4.36 seconds.
Let’s not forget that Bolide, which can reach a maximum speed of 500 kilometers per hour, is still under development and the delivery of this vehicle, which will be sold for 4.7 million dollars, will begin in 2024.
2- Hennessey Venom F5
When it comes to the fastest cars in the world, a model from Hennesey’s Venom series comes to mind first, but let’s state that this is not the case for now. The latest Venom F5, produced by the American automobile giant, is in the second place of our fastest car list.
Venom F5, which takes its power from its 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged engine nicknamed Fury, produces exactly 1817 horsepower. It is quite surprising that this vehicle, which has a maximum acceleration of 500 kilometers, weighs only 1360 kilograms.
The development process of the Venom F5 took exactly 3 years and the American automobile giant decided to produce only 25 of this model. Of course, the price of such a fast car is also quite expensive. The selling price of the Hennessey Venom F5 is currently exactly $1.8 million.
Top of the list of the fastest cars in the world: Koenigsegg Jesko
We have come to the end of our list of the fastest cars in the world. Sweden-based supercar brand Koenigsegg, as you know, is famous for producing faster models. This brand, which has blown the minds of automobile enthusiasts with models such as Agera and Agera R, has once again managed to become the king of the tracks with the Jesko model.
Jesko, which has a twin-turbocharged 5-liter V8 engine, reaches 1280 horsepower with normal fuel and 1600 horsepower with E86 fuel. If you’ve noticed, Jesko’s workhorse is less compared to the Venom F5 and Bolide. But Jesko’s thing is the maximum speed he can go. Koenigsegg Jesko manages to break the Chiron Super Sport’s record by reaching a maximum speed of 531 kilometers per hour.
