Today there is just an incredible number of cars in the world. The most different! Executive business sedans, powerful SUVs, practical station wagons, spacious minivans… But the most impressive cars are those that can accelerate to 100 km/h in a couple of seconds. And there are many such cars. They are worth talking about.
Swedish representatives
Cars designed and manufactured by Koenigsegg are known to true connoisseurs of fast, dynamic and beautiful cars. And the models of this concern can always be found in various ratings and tops, which list the most dynamic and fast cars.
So, the first thing to note is the Koenigsegg CCXR. Under the hood of this hypercar is a 1018-horsepower engine that provides acceleration to 100 km / h in just 3.1 seconds. Interestingly, the V8 engine has only one turbine.
The second model of the concern is called Trevita. She's under the hoodthe same unit costs, only its acceleration to 100 km / h is equal to 2.9 seconds. The bottom line is that the car has one interesting feature, namely an aerodynamic spoiler mounted at the rear. It gives the model downforce. And the weight of the car has become less due to the use of such modern material as carbon fiber in the manufacture of the body.
And finally, Koenigsegg Agera R. Of all the existing Swedish cars of this brand, this one has the most impressive performance. A 1180-horsepower engine is installed under the hood, and the speedometer needle reaches 200 km / h after 7.2 seconds from the start of movement. And the car accelerates to 100 km in 2.8 seconds.
Handmade model
This is exactly what the Pagani Huayra is. This car is a true work of automotive art. Painstaking, amazing handwork. Yes, the car was completely and completely assembled without the use of technology. Hands! They equipped it with a 6-liter V-shaped 12-cylinder engine with two turbines. Acceleration to 100 km / h is exactly three seconds. The speedometer needle reaches the mark of 160 km / h in 6.4 seconds. And the maximum, by the way, is 370 km / h. The car also has a very original design - it was inspired by a sophisticated aviation aesthetic.
Japanese pearl
They say Japan makes good, solid cars. But their cars do not cause such admiration as Italian, German and English models. However, there is one stunning Japanese model known asNissan GT-R R35. Here, among other local competitors, she has the fastest acceleration to 100 km / h. The car reaches this mark in just 2.9 seconds. Only after 500 meters the model can literally fly at a speed of 200 km / h. At the same time, she has a conventional turbocharged V6 engine under the hood.
Little-Known Cars
Such names as "Ferrari", "Lamborghini", "Bugatti", "Mercedes" are on everyone's lips. But not everyone has heard about the Noble M600 and Gumpert Apollo Sport. It's strange because these cars are ranked among the fastest.
So, the Noble M600 is an English car with a V8 engine, previously installed on the Volvo XC90. Power is 650 “horses”, and the speed limit is 362 km / h. The arrow gains the notorious hundred in 3 seconds.
A Gumpert Apollo Sport is a model developed by engineer Roland Gumpert, who worked for the Audi concern for a long time. It's a crazy supercar with road holding power and incredible downforce. 2.9 seconds is how long it takes him to reach 100. By the way, braking from 100 km / h is carried out immediately - the car stops completely after 36 meters.
Other cars
Another very fast car is the Lykan Hypersport. It reaches hundreds in 2.8 seconds, but this is not its most distinctive feature. The cost of the car is 3.4 million dollars! And all because diamonds were used in the decoration.
Rimac Concept One features 1088 horsepower.with., and its acceleration is similar to the previous model. But this is not interesting, but the fact that the sports car is entirely electric! Rimac has 4 electrical systems. And each is endowed with an electric motor, gearbox and converter. In general, each wheel has its own engine. So the model is also all-wheel drive. It costs, by the way, 1 million dollars. And the model, of course, has the fastest acceleration to 100 km/h among all electric cars.
Lamborghini Murcielago is a chic car that achieves hundreds in 2.8 seconds. In addition, this "Lamborghini" is the most convenient and comfortable. Neither vibration after 100 km / h, nor noise, nor instability - nothing will disturb the owner of this car. True, only 186 of them were produced.
BAC Mono is a single-seat race car with a maximum of 270 km/h and an acceleration of 2.8 seconds. It costs only (compared to the above prices, this is really low) $ 186,000. The Caterham Seven 620R is a car that hits 100 km/h in less than 2.8 seconds. It features excellent handling and a very low price - 73 thousand $.
SSC Ultimate Aero TT is a cult car. One of the fastest on earth! The American supercar hits 100 km/h in an impressive 2.78 seconds. And its maximum is 440 km / h! It costs 650 thousand dollars. Which at the current exchange rate is no less than 44 million rubles.
Leaders
And finally, about those cars that occupy the first lines in the ratings of the most dynamic cars. Ariel Atom V8 - this is which model has the fastest accelerationup to 100 km/h. The machine reaches this figure in less than 2.3 seconds! The engine of the model is a 3-liter, 500-horsepower, and the speed limit is 270 km / h. True, the car is single, racing (and has the appropriate design) and is intended for competition. By the way, in the photo provided above, you can see it.
More high-speed models are the Porsche 918 Spyder (2.4 seconds to 100 km/h), Bugatti Veyron (2.5 seconds and 1200-horsepower (!) engine), Caparo T1 (2.5 seconds), McLaren P1 (2.6 sec, max 375 km/h), Porsche 911 Turbo S (2.6 sec), and Lamborghini Aventador (2.7 sec). All cars are famous and popular, every motorist has probably heard about them.
By the way, what about motorcycles? After all, these vehicles are known for their speed and dynamism! In this regard, it is worth noting the Y2K Turbine Superbike model. Here she has the fastest acceleration to 100 km / h. The motorcycle accelerates in just one and a half seconds! And the maximum speed is 402 km / h. According to this indicator, it is surpassed only by the Dodge Tomahawk (480 km / h). Although purely theoretical, without taking into account air resistance, it can accelerate to 676 km / h. But his acceleration is longer - 2.5 seconds. However, both motorcycles are impressive. It's hard to disagree.
Although it's hard to imagine such a speed. And in general, motorcycles are far from the safest mode of transport, so you should not test it for speed. The consequences are often dire.
So, as you can see from the above, cars today are something special, andnot just a vehicle. And of course, we managed to understand: the engine size and the number of “horses” are not always the key to high speeds and fast acceleration. As well as the impressive price.
