Engine power is one of the main criteria that affects the speed and acceleration time of the car. The most powerful cars in the world are presented modern models, which are capable of squeezing more than 1000 horses out of themselves and accelerating to incredible, lightning speeds.
The creator of which is the famous Kurt Loterschmidt, is one of the ten most powerful supercars in the world. A feature of this model is that each copy is assembled by hand, which is why it can take a whole year to create one car. It's not the fastest car, but it's very powerful. Under its hood is a V 12 engine from which you can squeeze 1200 horses. Acceleration to hundreds of cars takes 3.8 seconds - not the most high performance. But when the supercar takes full acceleration, it is capable of a maximum speed of up to 400 km / h. In addition to ABS, there are no electronic systems in Lotek, which makes driving a car on high speeds quite a risky undertaking. The cost of the model is within 790 thousand dollars.
Bugatti Veyron 16.4 SuperSport is considered not only powerful, but also one of the most fast cars in the world. Until 2013, this Bugatti held the record for the most fast supercar. The eight-liter W 16 engine demonstrates a power of 1200 Horse power. It is not difficult for a car to accelerate from zero to a hundred in just 2.5 seconds. Top speed, which the supercar is able to show - 431 km / h. A feature of the model is that, even at maximum speed, it is able to completely stop in just 10 seconds! In total, 300 such beauties saw the light of day. The production of the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport has now been suspended. The cost of the model is 2 million 800 thousand dollars.
One of the fastest and most powerful cars in the world Hennessey Venom GT was released in 2011, although talk of its appearance began long before that. In just 2.7 seconds, the supercar demonstrates its lightning speed, taking acceleration to hundreds. The 6.2-liter V 8 engine is capable of squeezing out 1244 horsepower. The maximum speed of the model is 435 km / h, which makes it a high-speed leader. It has a relatively small weight, which is about 1.2 tons. Such lightning-fast pleasure will cost about 960 thousand dollars.
Lamborghini Gallardo Dallas Performance Stage 3 among the most powerful cars in the world, he was able to take only seventh place. The road monster is a modified version of the Lamborghini Gallardo. With a 5.2-litre V 10 engine and a Stage 3 package, all this Lamborghini can do is 1,220 horsepower. The maximum speed that the supercar gives out is 376 km / h. Acceleration to hundreds of car quietly takes 2.8 seconds. In addition to agility, Lamborghini Gallardo Dallas Performance Stage 3 can boast of its reliability: the manufacturer gives a guarantee for his invention for 2 years or more than 38 thousand kilometers. The "Italian" weighs about 1.5 tons. Its cost today is 680 thousand US dollars.
Hennessey VR 1200 Twin Turbo Cadillac CTS—V Coupe with a capacity of 1243 horses, he won the sixth place in the list of the most powerful cars in the world. The Cadillac CTS—V Coupe is equipped with seven liter engine V8 brand 427 CID. The maximum speed that this supercar is capable of is 390 km / h, and it takes just 3 seconds to accelerate to hundreds. American manufacturer Hennessey Performance expects to release about 12 of these models. The steel mustang weighs about 2 tons. The lucky person who is ready to pay 380 thousand dollars for it can become the owner of the car.
In fifth position among the most lightning-fast and powerful is. An Italian who looks like spaceship hides in itself incredible power at 1250 horsepower with a twelve-cylinder V-engine. The car was released in 2013 by Mansory. Then the supercar announced its maximum 380 km / h. One of the most powerful and fastest in the world, the Mansory Carbonado is capable of accelerating to hundreds in just 2.6 seconds. The super-fast iron stallion weighs 1.5 tons. The declared value of the model was $1.5 million.
Ranked fourth in the ranking of the most fast cars mobiles in the world. Under the hood of this car is a 6.4 L aluminum engine with a capacity of 1287 horsepower. The maximum speed that a supercar can reach is 420 km / h. Acceleration to hundreds, this model takes 2.85 seconds. total weight SSC Ultimate Aero TT is only 1.2 tons, which, in principle, allows it to be such a "quick". You can buy American Ultimat for 740 thousand dollars.
From the Canadian company HTT Automobil opens the top three. The model was presented to the world in 2007 in Montreal. This is not only one of the most powerful cars in the world, but also the most beautiful. Locus Plethore was developed using Formula 1 technology and is based on carbon monocoque. The weight of the Locus is only 1.2 tons, like a small car. The model has 1300 horses and is capable of taking acceleration to hundreds in just 2.8 seconds. The top speed this car is capable of is 385 km/h. The uniqueness of the HTT Locus Plethore LC-1300 lies in the fact that driver's seat is in the middle, and the passenger seats are behind. In total, about 6 dozen such models will be released. The cost of the supercar will be about 800 thousand dollars.
The next supercar on our list of the fastest cars in the world is 1350 horsepower. The "American" is equipped with a 6.9-liter V-shaped eight-cylinder biturbo engine, which already indicates a very considerable fuel consumption when traveling on it. Tuatara produced by the company Shelby Super Cars is capable of speeds from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.5 seconds. A quarter mile is easily overcome in 9.75 seconds at 232 kilometers per hour. All this car is capable of is 443 km/h. The cost of the SSC Tuatara is approximately $1.5 million.
Tops the list of the most powerful cars in the world. The car was designed Japanese company AMS Performance, which managed to create a real beast of the road. Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12 with a powerful turbo engine has 1500 horsepower. This record Haven't been able to beat any model yet. To refuel it, special fuel is required, since it will not be possible to squeeze out more than 1100 hp on a regular AI-98. At 273 km/h, this Nissan covers the quarter mile in just 8 seconds! It accelerates to hundreds in just 2.4 seconds. The maximum speed this steel stallion is capable of is 370 km/h. Such indicators put it in the first position among the fastest cars in the world. Weight of Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12 is just over 1.6 tons. You can buy such a powerful handsome man for 260 thousand dollars.
When studying, most of us most often turn our attention to the power of the car (s), which is expressed, as everyone already knows, in horsepower. It is traditionally considered that the more hp. in a car, the more powerful it is. Unfortunately, many of us forget that another indicator in a car is no less important, this is its maximum torque. In the modern car market, you can find (find) quite a few examples when cars (their engines) have just a fantastic amount of horsepower, but at the same time they give out insufficient torque for the motor. Dear readers, let's find out together which production cars are currently being produced for sale in the global car market with the highest engine torque. Trust us, these supercars are ready to tear our stratosphere apart today if they could move (fly) through the air.
All modern technologies developments in the automotive industry over the past few years have literally changed the entire automotive market in the field of powerful and super-powerful supercars. After all, even some 5 years ago, this would have looked completely different. But in today's era of rapid development of turbocharged and hybrid engines, everything began to look different (different).
Thanks to the introduction the latest technologies in the automotive industry, engine torque moved into first place in terms of indicators, pushing into the background such an important indicator in a car as horsepower. The reason lies in the turbochargers mounted on engines, where due to the turbocharging of these compressors, the power of the engine itself is increased, which allows the engine to freely use its maximum torque at low speeds. First, - so today, the main criterion for the power of a car is the speed range of the engine itself, in which it is available maximum power. Now you yourself understand, if this (large) power of the car is available in a small range of revolutions of the power unit, then the car cannot be considered one of the most powerful. Secondly, it is also important that this maximum power be available at low engine speeds, that is, than earlier car will be able to use the full power of his engine, so much the better for him.
Let's take a look at the cars of 2016 produced around the world together, which have. We want to note right away that in the near future this list of cars will certainly (most likely) look different, since all automotive companies do not stand still and constantly create new and new cars, i.e. new supercars. So next year, this ranking of cars with the highest engine torque will look different anyway.
2016 Koenigsegg Regera.
Despite the fact that the production of this supercar has not yet been fully deployed, it can already be safely put in our rating. At the very soon Koenigsegg plans to produce 80 (pieces) of these supercars. Car model 2016 Koenigsegg Regera this year can certainly be considered the most powerful and fastest production car in the world. True, they say that this will not last long, since another new car model will soon enter the market - the Bugatti Chiron, which will probably be even more powerful than this Regera car.
The Regera is equipped with a 1500 hp twin-turbo engine. with a maximum torque of 2000 Nm. But that is not all. The main thing is that this machine is really insane in itself, they say, it is ready to conquer the stratosphere. All the torque of the supercar is transferred to its rear wheels.
If this car did not have traction control, then it would be simply unpredictable, like energy particles in the world of quantum physics.
These fantastic power and torque figures are made possible by the hybrid powertrain, which consists of a twin-turbo 5.0-liter V8 engine producing 1,100 hp. (maximum torque 1280 Nm). To increase the power of the supercar, engineers installed three electric motors to help the gasoline engine.(!)
Two electric motors of the machine transmit torque to the rear wheels, thereby providing an additional 245 hp to each wheel. power and 260 Nm of torque. The third electric motor is installed on crankshaft the V8 engine itself. The power of this motor is 218 hp. with a maximum torque of 300 Nm. In the end, it turns out that the total (combined) power of the car was 1500 hp. with a maximum torque of 2000 Nm.
2016 Bentley Mulsanne Speed Unveiled.
The company recently restyled the Bentley Mulsanne Speed Unveiled. In addition to its appearance, the car also became much more powerful, which ultimately made it the most powerful auto-sedan ever produced (produced) by this very company.
This Mulsanne Speed Unveiled is powered by a 6.75 liter (twin-turbo) engine producing 530 hp. with a maximum torque of 1100 Nm. Despite its considerable (abundant) weight mass which is 2711 kg, the Bentley car accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in just 4.9 seconds.
And this is due in large part (possibly) to such a colossal engine torque. It's this peak torque that makes the 2016 Speed Unveiled the world's fastest V8 sedan built by Bentley today. Let us remind our readers that for the first time the British car brand such eight-cylinder engines on their classic models started installing in 1959.
2016 Pagani Huayra BC.
By car Pagani Huayra BC as a power unit uses an engine from Mercedes-AMG, which has a total power of 789 hp. with a maximum torque of 1081 Nm. More detailed technical specifications of the car will appear (be available) after the premiere of the car, which will be held at the Geneva Motor Show on March 3, 2016.
There is a chance that this supercar will become the most powerful car of 2016 until its closest competitors, namely supercars and . Some of you (motorists) may say that the Pagani Huayra BC car model still cannot be considered a production car, since only 20 of them will be made (copies). But gentlemen, do not rush to conclusions, despite the fact that the Pagani auto company will release a smaller number of its cars compared to the same Bentley company, nevertheless this release of this car will be considered serial and for this very reason it deserves to take the prestigious place in our rankings.
If it seems to you, dear motorists (readers), that these 1098 Nm are not too much for our ranking of the most powerful cars in the world, when compared with other competitors, then this is far from the case. After all, this car Huayra BC weighs only 1218 kg. and the ratio of mass to power in this supercar is simply amazing. Moreover, the engine torque is transmitted directly to the rear wheels and it is paired with a 7-speed mechanical box gears, and, with all that the car has an active . It is for this very reason that this car claims specifically, at least for a short time, to become one of the fastest on the planet. The name of the car model was invented in honor of a regular customer and good friend of the Pagani car company.
Mercedes-AMG 65.
Any list or ranking of the fastest accelerating cars on the planet would not be complete without the supercars that are created by geniuses from the province of Affalterbach (the place in Germany where amazing Mercedes cars AMG).
Specifically, we are talking about cars that are produced under the well-known designation - 65 AMG. At the moment, under this nameplate, the AMG division produces following models machines: - S65; S65 Coupé; SL65 and G65.
All of these vehicles are equipped with 6.0 liter twin-turbo V12 engines producing up to 630 hp. with a maximum torque of 1000 Nm.
The most amazing thing is that all of these have electronic torque limiting in order to reliably protect the gearbox from the load and, of course, for the driver's safety itself. In fact, all of these powertrains are capable of delivering more than 1000 Nm.
It has been established that in reality, the engine torque on AMG 65 cars is 1200 Nm. But the engineers of the AMG division decided that this amount of torque in the engine is simply insane, and even more so that in practice these 1000 Nm will not have any visible noticeable differences with 1200 Nm of torque. Especially if you consider the very efficiency of the car.
Mercedes-AMG 63.
This "junior series" of amazing AMG cars. The following models of cars are produced under the designation AMG 65: SL63; S63 and S63 Coupe and Cabrio (RWD and AWD drive).
All these models are equipped with 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 engines with 585 hp. with a maximum torque of 900 Nm. With the help of your all-wheel drive 4Matic customized Mercedes-AMG engines a model car or a Cabriolet, for example, can be accelerated from standstill to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds. Of course, these days, this time no longer seems somehow incredible and amazing. But given the weight of this S63 Cabrio 4Matic, which is 2185 kilograms, such a result of 3.9 seconds is quite impressive.
Unfortunately or what, all "M157" engines will soon be replaced on all models of Mercedes-AMG cars, they will be replaced by 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engines. This engine is currently, for example, installed on car models current generation And . True, there is still no official confirmation of the change of the 5.5-liter engine to another. But in any case, we already know that in the near future the company "Mercedes" with its engineering subgroup "Mercedes-AMG" will present us with surprises.
It is simply impossible to convey in words the very feeling when you press the gas pedal on a powerful car. Engineers are making more and more technically advanced cars, following the taste of lovers of speed and extreme sports. In our time, you can already see cars with motors with a capacity of over 1000 horsepower. Only a few units get behind the wheel of such units. Let's read about the most powerful cars our world.
Lotec Sirius
This supercar was created by Kurt Lotterschmied. The power of the car is 1200 horses. The supercar is assembled by hand, in which even the carbon body is given great attention and glued by hand. On average, it takes about one year to create one machine. here, manufacturers put a completely insane V12 engine with a volume of six liters. Speaking of auxiliaries electronic systems, which help to control and drive the car, then only ABS should be noted here. Unfortunately, the car loses to its competitors in acceleration to hundreds, due to the lack electronic assistants.
Hennessey Venom GT
The power of the machine has 1200 horsepower. She is considered deadly. dangerous car, behind the wheel of which it is impossible to lose vigilance in any case. And all because under the hood is a whole herd of horses. The creators decided to put a 6.2-liter V8 engine in the model, and also used two turbines from the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. For a long time, the car was a monster on paper, with amazing performance. And so, it was in 2010 that its mass production began.
Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport
Even those people who do not understand cars have heard about this baby. Such a machine was created in order to set records. And with this task, she coped with one or two. Nowadays, the car is officially considered the fastest in the world. To do this, the creators worked on aerodynamics and increased the power of the W16 engine to 1200 horsepower. It is a pity that the car cannot drive on Russian roads.
Lamborghini Gallardo Dallas Performance Stage 3
Lamborghini takes the honorable seventh place in our ranking. The atelier worked on tuning such a baby, while paying special attention to the already wonderful V10 engine, which has a volume of 5.2 liters. They also installed the stage 3 package on it, which allows you to survive from the 1220 horsepower engine. New firmware for the electronic control unit, updated fuel supply, and two turbines are just a small part of what engineers have done in order to get maximum power.
Hennessey VR1200 twin turbo Cadillac CTS-V coupe
The American tuning studio Hennessy decided to create a real king of the roads that could challenge any European supercar. The machine has a capacity of 1243 horsepower. But if we talk about secret weapons, then they became a V-shaped eight-cylinder aluminum engine. Its volume was brought up to 7 liters, and even two turbines were installed. That is why we have given power supercar.
Lamborghini Aventador LP1250-4 Mansory Carbonado
Such a machine is considered the most powerful of Italy. In its image, it is somewhat reminiscent of a spaceship that accidentally ended up on our planet. The supercar is ready to boast a V-shaped engine with 12 cylinders, as well as with two turbines that have a capacity of 1200 horsepower.
SSC Ultimate Aero TT
Fourth place in the ranking went to such a car from America. And the locals are very proud of it. In the unit you will find a bi-turbo engine borrowed from the Chevrolet Corvette C5R. Its volume is 6.3 liters. They squeeze everything they can out of it. At the same time, they also installed an Aeromotive fuel supply system.
HTT Locus Plethore LC-1300
The top three is opened by a native of Formula 1 race tracks. At the heart of the car, you can find a carbon monocoque, on which the engineers hung panels made of composite materials, which give the unit a civilian look. Here the driver sits in the center. But behind him are two seats for passengers. The car received as a gift a perfectly modified V8 engine with a volume of 6.2 liters. Thanks to the turbocharging that was borrowed from the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, the car is ready to give out 1300 horses.
S.S.C. Tuatara
The power of this baby is 1350 horsepower. She is in second place in our ranking. A thoroughbred American is ready to show off a biturbo V-shaped engine with 8 cylinders. Its volume is 6.9 liters.
Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12
But a car originally from Japan won gold medal. Such a monster was brought into the world by the tuning studio AMS Performance. It also managed to seriously modify the V6 VR38DETT engine. The engine volume was increased to 4 liters, and the cylinders were sharpened. The cylinder head was also completely replaced, and the control electronics firmware was rewritten from scratch. Now the motor shows more aggressive work. But even such data was not enough. So the engineers put in a more efficient turbine and intercooler. Now the car is ready to squeeze out 1500 horsepower.
Video: Top 10 most powerful cars in the world
There are many criteria for measuring the performance of a car. For the fastest car in the world, the main criterion is speed. We present to you top 10 fastest cars in the world. Mainly sports models, as fast as they are expensive.
The price is $330,000. The chic body of the British supercar immediately attracts attention, it is made of stainless steel and carbon fiber. With its 4.4-liter eight-cylinder engine with 650 hp. the car is capable of squeezing 362 km / h at the limit. However, they risked dispersing it only up to 346 km / h, since the driver felt very strong vibrations when traveling.
The maximum speed is 370 km/h. Market price- 1.27 million dollars. next number ranking of the fastest auto goes beautiful Italian supercar made of carbon fiber. It is powered by a six-liter V12 engine from Mercedes-AMG with 720 horsepower. Last year on Geneva Motor Show automaker Pagani showed the Huayra BC, which is lighter and more powerful than the standard Huayra. Her engine has been improved to 789 hp. while the total curb weight has been reduced to a measly 1199kg. This is comparable to the weight the newest Honda civic coupe, but Huayra is five times more powerful.
The maximum speed is 375 km / h. The cost is 1.22 million dollars. One of the few Danish hypercars is also one of the fastest cars. Assembled in Zeeland, the Zenvo ST1 shows the height of Danish engineering prowess as the car combines a supercharged 6.8-litre V8 engine with a turbocharger, with 1,205 hp.
The ST1 is capable of reaching 375 km/h on a flawless road, but it is important to note that its maximum speed limited to electronics. Without digital nannies on board, the ST1 could be even faster. It was released in a 15-unit edition and you are unlikely to see it on Russian roads.
Sold for 970 thousand dollars. A car with a unique interior design. Its authors are Gordon Murray and Peter Stevens. driver's seat, and steering wheel in the McLaren F1 are located in the center of the cabin. At the end of the 20th century, McLaren F1 received the title of "the most fast car in the world" and held it until 2005. The iron heart of this British beauty is the V12 engine with 627 horsepower.
Develops speed up to 405 km / h. The cost is $545,568. This Swedish model has received many awards, including Top Gear Power Laps. Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson rode the CCX and praised the car a lot, but didn't like the lack of downforce. Clarkson said that the lack of a rear spoiler was to blame. This was also later stated by Top Gear pilot Stig, who crashed the CCX and suggested that the car would be more stable with a rear spoiler. In 2006, Koenigsegg introduced a variant of its supercar with an optional carbon fiber rear spoiler. However, with it, the speed is reduced to 370 km / h.
Forbes magazine included CCX in the list the most beautiful cars in the world.
The highest speed is 414 km / h. Buyers will cost 695 thousand dollars. This supercar, with its exterior similar to the Porsche 911, was created by the German tuning company 9ff. The design caused an ambiguous reaction among motorists: in the reviews there is both admiration for the beauty of the car, and criticism of the “ugly headlights” and too elongated body.
One of the main differences from the regular 911 is the location of the four-liter engine. twin turbo from 1120 hp All 911 models in Porsche stories(with the exception of the Porsche 911 GT1) the engine is at the rear, while the GT9 is mid-engined for better weight distribution.
Theoretically achievable speed is 430 km/h. Offered for 655 thousand dollars. The American from Shelby SuperCars (SSC) was the king of the auto world of speed from 2007 to 2010, beating the version Super Sport from Veyron. It even made it into the Guinness Book of World Records in 2007 with an astounding 412 km/h.
Helping to achieve this record was a 6.3-liter twin turbo V8 engine with 1287 horsepower. The driver does not have electronic assistants to help control this power. So the car promises either a delightful experience for those who have a lot of driving experience, or almost certain death for reckless drivers who have no such experience.
The declared speed is 431 km / h. When Volkswagen bought the Bugatti brand, it had one goal in mind: to produce the fastest production car in the world. The original Veyron achieved this goal, however it was soon deposed by SSC Ultimate Aero. So Bugatti is back with Super Sport. It has an 8-liter Quad Turbo W16 engine with 1200 hp, as well as numerous aerodynamic changes designed to help win a few extra kilometers per hour.
The cost of this luxury car is 2.4 million dollars, and despite such a high price, the demand for cars in the car market is very high.
The price is 1 million dollars.
In a 2014 test at the Kennedy Space Center, the coupe managed to reach 435 km / h in a single run. This dream of speed, realized in a carbon fiber body (excluding doors and roof), is equipped with a 7.0 - liter V8 engine with turbocharged Twin Turbo with 1244 horsepower.
1. Bugatti Chiron is the fastest car
The maximum speed is 463 km / h.
The cost is 2.65 million dollars.
The fastest car in the world in 2018 and possibly 2019 (Bugatti plans to install speed record with Chiron). Its photos and technical specifications were only declassified at the Geneva Motor Show 2016. This luxury two-seater was developed after the success of Bugatti Veyron, which is considered one of the fastest and . The Bugatti Chiron is equipped with a 16-cylinder engine and its 1500 horsepower rushes from 0 to a hundred kilometers in 2.5 seconds.
Although the Chiron is built like racing car, you don't need to be a professional to operate it. The vehicle is designed to automatically adjust driving as speed increases or decreases, ensuring optimal performance.
On the horizon also loom cars that are ready to compete for the right to be called the most fast cars in the world. So, SSC hopes to reclaim the title of "world's fastest car" with its challenger Tuatara (1,350 horsepower under the hood and 443 km/h in theory). And Koenigsegg claims that the One:1 supercar can overcome the bar of 430 km/h. In 2016, while trying to set a record while passing a lap at the German Nürburgring One: 1 race track, he had an accident, crashing into a protective fence. The pilot did not suffer much, which cannot be said about the car. This is one of the most expensive accidents at the Nürburgring.
In order for a person to feel a dynamic set of speed while driving, an engine of 150-200 hp is enough. With. under the hood. It is difficult to imagine what a storm of emotions a motorist experiences when he presses the gas pedal of a car with a capacity of more than a thousand “horses”. It’s hard to even realize that such supercars even exist. Ho they are. And that is why I would like to talk about the existing ones today.
German production
In 1962, the Lotec company was founded in the Bavarian town of Kolbermoor, whose activities consisted in creating new cars and reworking / optimizing finished ones. In 2004, this concern produced a hypercar, which to this day is included in all kinds of tops, which indicate the most powerful cars in the world. We are talking about Lotec Sirius.
Under its hood is a 6.4-liter twin-turbo engine producing 1220 hp. With. This motor provides a top speed of 402 km/h. The model exchanges the first “hundred” 3.8 seconds after the start. It takes 7.8 seconds to accelerate to 200 km/h. A mark of 300 km / h speedometer needle reaches 17 seconds after the start of movement.
Hennessey Performance Engineering
This is the name of the famous American tuning studio that creates very powerful cars. Two models developed by him are included in the ranking of the best.
The first car is known as Hennessey Venom GT. This is a sports car based on the body sports coupe Lotus Express. Three engines were installed under its hood, with a capacity of 725, 1030 and 1200 horsepower, respectively. Versions with the latest unit under the hood accelerated to 100 km / h in just 2.6 seconds.
In 2015, even more powerful machines appeared, to the name of which the prefix "Spider" was added. Under the hoods of these versions, a 1451-horsepower 7-liter engine was installed, due to which the model reached 100 km / h in 2.5 seconds. By the way, its maximum is 427.6 km / h. This limit is reachable if the limiter is removed. And with it it is equal to 415 km/h.
Another model from the studio is called VR1200 Twin Turbo Cadillac CTS-V coupe. Based on the name, it becomes clear which car was taken as the basis. But according to the characteristics this model The Hennessey doesn't look like a base coupe. Indeed, under the hood she has a 1226-horsepower 7-liter engine that accelerates the car to a maximum of 389 km / h. The model reaches the mark of 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds.
Cars from France
Listing the most powerful cars, it is necessary to note the legendary "Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super-Sport". Under the hood of this hypercar is an 8-liter 1200-horsepower engine. It was thanks to him that this model was listed in the Guinness Book of Records as This car is capable of accelerating to 434 km / h. But this is without limitation. With him, this figure decreases to 415 km / h. A the speedometer reaches the mark of 100 km/h 2.5 seconds after the start of the movement.
Interestingly, in 2016, the concern presented to the public a model that became the successor to the legendary Veyron. And the company plans for 2018 to set a speed record on this machine. The maximum declared speed is 463 km / h. And on it, with a full tank of gasoline (100 liters), you can drive 9 minutes.
Italian models
The eminent hypercar, known as the Lamborghini Gallardo Dallas Performance Stage 3, deserves special attention. And this is a very powerful car. Which model boasts an elegant appearance, but at the same time have a 1220-horsepower engine under the hood and accelerate to “hundreds” in 2.8 seconds? Only Lamborghini. A The maximum speed of this vehicle is 376 km/h.
The second model of the Italian concern is called Aventador LP1250-4 Mansory Carbonado. It looks powerful and aggressive, and under the hood it has a 1250-horsepower 6.5-liter Twin Turbo engine, thanks to which the car can accelerate to a maximum of 380 km / h. And he exchanges a “hundred” in 2.6 seconds.
More attention should be paid to the model released by Ferrari. We are talking about the F12 Berlinetta Mansory La Revoluzione. This car has almost the same characteristics as the first Lamborghini. But he is different, and not only in appearance. In the process of creating this car, aerodynamic methods were used, which the developers based on the Formula 1 programs, which, as you know, impose strict requirements on cars and require compliance with certain technical standards.
Another feature of this machine is the air channel running through the flanks along the hood and sides. It provides maximum downforce models and dynamics.

The characteristics of the “debutant” are impressive, because under its hood there is a 1300-horsepower 8.2-liter engine, thanks to which the model can accelerate to 430 km / h (in theory). Many believe that the design of the car is similar to the McLaren. And in the design of the cabin there are similarities.
McLaren
This year, this British manufacturer will release a new model that will become known as the P1 LM. It was impossible not to mention her when talking about cars with powerful engines. After all, this car will be equipped with a 3.8-liter 1000-horsepower engine, thanks to which it can accelerate to 350 km / h. And the first "hundred" is reached in just 2.4 seconds after the start of movement.
In 2015, by the way, the McLaren P1 GTR model was released. The engine is the same, but there are differences. The GTR is 60 kilograms heavier than the novelty, and it is less dynamic. But not much.

Undoubted leader
Almost all the most powerful car engines have been listed above. Except for one motor - the one that is installed under the hood Japanese Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12. Today's
It was created by a tuning studio known as AMS Performance. The company's specialists seriously took up the processing of the power unit. The power of the 4-liter V6 VR38DETT engine was boosted to 1500 horsepower! And all thanks to bored cylinders and new firmware, which provokes the electronics and the motor itself to work in a more aggressive mode. But this was not enough, because the specialists also installed a brand new intercooler and a high-performance turbine. By the way, in order for the engine to work at its full 1500-horsepower power, it is necessary to fill the car with gasoline used by racing teams. If you fill in the usual tank, the 98th, then more than 1100 liters. With. the car will not release.
Interestingly, AMS Performance specialists are not going to stop there. B plans - the creation of a 2500-horsepower engine. If the idea can be translated into reality, then the most extreme and powerful car in the world will be released. This GT-R, which is still in the planning stage, has already received the code name Alpha G. Which is justified by the choice of a training platform known as Alpha Omega.
Compact Models
