Top Fastest Car In The World In 2018

Ford GT -- 646bhp, 220mph

The Ford GT was first revealed to stunned onlookers at the Detroit motor show way back at the start of 2015. It took until 2017 for anyone to get behind the wheel -- on the street. By that point, the race version had taken a class victory at Le Mans. The street car shouldn't work. Race cars that end up on the road rarely do. But the GT manages to ride properly, handle skilfully and live up to its newer-than-space-age looks. A landmark automobile.

Jeep Trackhawk -- 707bhp, 180mph

Bear in Mind the Dodge Demon out of a few slides past? The madder, badder Hellcat? Course you do. Now imagine the quantity of horrid light beer consumed with the individual who developed the notion of slotting the 707bhp variation of said supercharged V8 into the Jeep Grand Cherokee. This, not the Lamborghini Urus, is the most powerful SUV of 2017. 'Murica one, Italy, nil

Apollo Intensa Emozione -- 769bhp, 208mph

The Apollo had us at 'Batmobile-inspired styling'. Then it kept on winning us over with its 769bhp Ferrari-derived V12 and purist inspirations. The IE is designed for monitor work only, but when all ten get sold, it'll finance a road car that'll hopefully consider at least half as bonkers. That is what supercars are all about, right?

Ferrari 812 Superfast -- 789bhp, 211mph

We are living in a mad, mad world. Among many pieces of evidence that this is true is that the fact that Ferrari's series-production big-booted GT car is powered by a 789bhp V12 that'll ship it beyond 62mph in 2.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 211mph. If this is one of the last of the classic V12 supercars, until hybrids and turbos finally kill off them, then what a way to go.

Dodge Demon -- 840bhp, 168mph

The very first road-certified mill car to be officially capable of wheelies (or even wheelstands, we assume ) is your Dodge Hellcat's more evil, quarter-mile-munching twin. It's a drag-race monster with an 840bhp supercharged V8 heart, and though that sub-170mph top speed is the lowest in this record, the Demon's ability to launch in 0-60mph at a verifiable 2.3 seconds is as impressive as it's barmy. A worthy addition to the annals of muscle car legend.
