The car boasts of a V8 engine that features a 7.4-liter twin-turbo and is powered at 1600 Watts. The car is said to replace Koenigsegg Agera RS in the Guinness Book of World Records, as the fastest car ever produced.
2) The Koenigsegg Agera RS
The Koenigsegg Agera RS is manufactured by the company Koenigsegg Automotive AB. The car has been honored with the title Hypercar by Top Gear magazine in the year 2010. The car is not only one of the fastest cars in the world but also one of the most stylish, featuring a well-lit interior and aluminum wheels. This is still currently the fastest car in the world in the Guinness Book of World Records simply because Hennessey Venom F5 still has not registered its claims with the Guinness Book of World Records. The car holds a record of 284.3 mph, but only managed to reach 278mph in the test run in Las Vegas. The car has been fitted with a 5.0-liter turbo V8.
3) Bugatti Chiron
The powerhouse from the house of Bugatti holds a record of 271mph. The power of the Bugatti Chiron lies in the fact that 200 models were sold out even before the car was released into the market.

The car has a record of 270.4 mph, which is recorded when it ran for a test in Kennedy Space Center, in the year 2014. The reason it has not been able to make a place in the Guinness Book of World Records, was because the car ran only in one direction and not in the other direction. Not only that, but the experts are not willing to consider it as a production car because the car has been entirely hand-built.
5) SCC Ultimate Aero
Shelby SuperCars (SSC)’s SCC Ultimate Aero was the fastest car in the world back in the year 2007. The car made a record of 256mph. SCC Ultimate Aero beat out the Veyron, not only that but it beat out Veyron’s non-super sport version. The manufacturer has attached the car with a 6.3-liter twin-turbocharged V8 and has 1287 HP.
