Fastest Car in the World 2019

Want to know which is the fastest car in the world? Here’s an updated list of the world’s fastest cars in 2019 ranked by their maximum speed of miles per hour. 

There is an ongoing debate on what should be deemed a production car, and gear enthusiasts worldwide still argue about maximum speed and various factors.

So, this list will hopefully shed some light on the topic and give the final answer of which is the #1 fastest car in the world. 

1. Hennessey Venom F5

The top speed of the Venom F5 from Hennessey is expected to reach over 300 miles per hour, making it the fastest car in the world, and the first street-legal car to exceed 300 mph. 

It features a 7.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 1600 horsepower. The Venom F5 will also allow you to accelerate from 0-60 mph in 2 seconds, and 249 mph in less than 30 seconds.

It’s worth noting that the Venom F5’s top speed is claimed, and not tested on the road. 

2. Koenigsegg Agera RS

The Koenigsegg Agera is the current fastest car in the world which is available to purchase. It has a top speed of 278 miles per hour and accelerates from 0 to 249 miles per hour in just 36.44 seconds. 

It features a 5.0-liter turbo V8 engine with 1160 horsepower.

While the Venom F5 from Hennessey has a higher claimed speed, the Koenigsegg Agera RS remains the fastest car in the world on the road with a tested top speed of 284.55 mph on a public road. 

3. Bugatti Chiron

The third-fastest car in the world is the monster car known as Bugatti Chiron, which has a Quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W16 engine with 1500 horsepower. It has reached a top speed of 271 miles per hour, which is slightly faster than the older Veyron Super Sport from Bugatti. 

The price of this car is set to $2.6 million, which also makes this one of the most expensive cars in the world. 

On a side note, a new SuperSport version of the Bugatti Chiron recently broke the record of the fastest car in the world when it reached 304 miles per hour on a race track in Germany. However, that particular Chiron can’t be bought and there is no sales date available yet.

More about the Fastest Car in the World

The fastest cars in the world are definitely what you would call supercars with top speeds well over 200 miles per hour (321 km/h). They are all available for consumers to buy. The measurement of the car’s acceleration from 0 to 62 mph is equivalent to 0 to 100 km/h. 

There are no public roads in the world where you’re allowed to drive that fast but to the owners of these cars, the knowledge that they could is often more than enough. The top speed on a public road is held by the Koenigsegg Agera RS at 284 miles per hour. 

One important thing to note about top speeds is the fact that many of the top speeds are claimed by the manufacturers and not tested on public roads.

What is the #1 fastest car in the world?

At the moment, the #1 fastest car in the world is the Hennessey Venom F5 with a claimed top speed of 300 miles per hour. However, recently a new prototype of a Bugatti Chiron Super Sport model reached a top speed of 304 mph. 

With that said, the Koenigsegg Agera RS is still the fastest car in the world with a tested top speed of 284.55 mph on a public road. This record will remain until a faster car breaks the record on a public road.
