TOP 5 FASTEST CARS IN THE WORLD 2022

hi and welcome to this video in this video i am going to talk about the top five fastest road legal cars ever made but first an introduction of the first car to be measured at a speed which lead to the fastest car challenge we see today this first car was the 1894 ben's velo which could reach a top speed of only 12 miles per hour as i said this was the first mass-produced vehicle to be measured at a speed since then there aren't many confirmed records however in or around 1950 the jaguar xk-120 achieved a production card speed record of 124.6 miles per hour not to be confused with the tuned prototype that managed to hit 133 miles per hour after this it became a trend for automotive publications to do their own top speed test even the legendary mclaren f1 was tested by car and driver and in 2005 the bugatti veyron eb 16.4 set the first official speed record that was confirmed by german inspection officials only a small number of vehicles have come close to breaking the record since the official challenge between manufacturers began at that same moment from slowest to fastest this list includes the top 5 fastest road legal cars ever made even after 17 years we would see the same bugatti veyron by which this everlasting challenge between manufacturers was kicked off back on place eleven if this would be a top fifteen but okay it is a top five so let's begin number five koenigsegg aguero rs in the last place we see the koenigsegg aguero rs 278 miles per hour this is not the only time we will see a koenigsegg in this top five so stay tuned when koenigsegg reached an average speed of 277.9 miles per hour in november 2017 the aguero rs the most potent model of the guerra rs overtook it as the fastest automobile in the world although the record was broken in less than two years the aguero rs still holds other records including those for zero to 200 miles per hour acceleration 200 to zero miles per hour braking and zero to 200 miles per hour and back to complete stop konigsegg unlike bugatti did not create a limited edition aguera rs to celebrate the record but there were only 25 made overall number four ssc tuatara in the fourth place we see the ssc tuatara 295 miles per hour top speed records frequently generate controversy particularly when it comes to surpassing the 300 miles per hour barrier which was formerly a mystic and outright impossibility the ssc tuatara allegedly reached a top speed of 331 miles per hour in october of 2020 making it by far the fastest car in the world at the time within hours individuals had begun pointing out inconsistencies in the films and sure enough what would have been a record-breaking performance was just impossible to verify ssc made a second attempt to demonstrate that the ssc tuatara is the world's fastest vehicle unfortunately that second attempt wasn't as good as the first but it did set an official record of 282.6 pushing the koenigsegg agera rs out of the second position leaving the bugatti chiron super sport 300 plus as the current fastest car in the world although there have been many disputes in the past regarding the ssc tuatara's top speed it appears that we have finally reached a resolution the company made the decision to put all doubts to rest by attempting one final run although it isn't a run of 316 miles per hour or even over 300 miles per hour for that matter it is unquestionably an improvement over the 282.6 miles per hour the tuatara reached 295 miles per hour breaking its own record and moving up to fourth place on this list of the world's fastest road legal cars number three bugatti chiron super sport 300 plus in third place we find the just discussed bugatti chiron super sport 300 plus 304 miles per hour with a top speed of about 261 miles per hour the ordinary bugatti chiron is already one of the fastest vehicles in the world however the french company wanted to break the existing record so it developed a vehicle that was even more powerful the centadichi's engine was modified by bugatti to have 1578 horsepower 99 more than the chiron's regular rating longer gear ratios in the transmission and a reworked aerodynamic package that lengthens the car by approximately 10 inches on august 2nd the modified vehicle reached a top speed of 304.7 miles per hour to commemorate the occasion bugatti is producing the chiron super sport 300 plus a production version based on the prototype there are only 30 of these cars in existence which is enough for the guinness book of records to certify the speed record number two hennessey venom f5 in second place as almost the fastest car in the world we find the hennessey venom f5 311 miles per hour hennessey is known for its wild builds so the texas-based tuner wanted to try his hand at building a vehicle from the ground up in 2011 it introduced the venom gt which was produced until 2017 but of which only 17 were made however it wasn't until 2016 that we learned hennessey was developing a model to replace the gt that would be even better in all honesty the replacement wasn't a letdown the supercar known as the venom f5 had a brand new v8 engine that produced over 1 800 horsepower and nearly 1 200 pound-feet of torque a 7-speed automatic was used to transfer all of the power to the rear wheels the tuner automaker boasts that the venom f5 has a top speed of 311 miles per hour and can accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in under 3 seconds every run has seen improvement with the most recent one at nasa's runway in florida reaching 271.6 miles per hour we won't rule it out just yet either as hennessey still has work to do to accomplish its 311 miles per hour objective do you anticipate the hennessey venom f5 will surpass the 311 miles per hour mark number one koenigsegg jessica absolute in first place we see the beautiful and second time that we see the brand back in this top five the koenigsegg jessica absolute 330 miles per hour when you thought the jesco was the swedish automaker's pinnacle creation it decided to create a hyper version of the supercar with the suffix absolute in order to make the jesco absolute unbelievably fast the manufacturer worked on its aerodynamics and high-speed road characteristics before it was unveiled in 2020 due to modifications including an enlarged rear hood covered rear wheels and a lowered suspension it sports a drag coefficient of just 0.278 while the front hood air ducts are likewise closed it is missing the enormous rear wings and the front wheel louvers the 2.8 million dollars 1 600 horsepower absolute jesco has a top speed of 330 miles per hour this is a theoretical top speed and the car hasn't actually reached it yet it should be mentioned since the first prototype was taken out of the oven in may 2022 we may presumably expect to see it in the open soon all things considered if this ends up being another tuatara-style disaster we will undoubtedly be dissatisfied however for the time being we'll accept koningsig's claim that it is the world's fastest car this was the top 5 fastest road legal cars i hope you enjoyed it and for suggestions please leave a comment below the video and
