These are the Fastest 4 Door Cars Ever Made

Most high-performance vehicles are coupes and severely lack on the practicality front. The four-door cars on our list are stuffed with massive supercharged, turbocharged, and electric powertrains that make up for a surreal sense of acceleration and speed while hauling the cargo you can carry.

22. 2023 Volkswagen Golf R

The list should be flavorful, so we added a VW car. This is probably the least powerful car on our list, but it runs like a bullet. We are talking about the Golf R. This cute little hatchback cannot be underestimated. With the optional 7-speed automatic transmission, it runs 0-60 in 3.9 seconds and a quarter-mile in 12.5 seconds.

The VW Golf R's top speed is 155 mph, which is phenomenal for this tiny object.

Here comes the main part: the engine. It has a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4-cylinder engine that makes 315 HP and 295 LB-FT of torque. The Volkswagen Golf R price is $45,985.

This hot hatch is loaded with performance-oriented elements. For example, it brings carbon fiber trim with its 20th anniversary edition. In addition to contrast stitching, adaptive suspension dampers, etc., Volkswagen has curated this with everything that will make it an exhilarating machine.

21. 2023 BMW M340i xDrive

Here is another budget option. The BMW 3-Series is an affordable luxury sedan that you can buy. However, if you are seeking both comfort and speed, the M340i xDrive is the best pick for you. The reason is simple: it gets you 0-60 in 3.7 seconds. Meanwhile, for the quarter-mile timing, it takes only 12.2 seconds. The US Government has limited the top speed of the M340i xDrive to 150 mph.

This is all possible thanks to the 3.0L twin-turbocharged inline-6 engine that mixes with mild-hybrid technology to make a total of 382 HP and 369 LB-FT of torque. The BWM M340i xDrive price is $ 59,395.

Being the fastest 3-Series sedan, not only do you get the upgrades in power & performance, but to handle the momentum, you also get upgraded M Sport brakes with blue calipers. The M Sport suspensions treat you well in any driving arena either street or highway. Furthermore, its aero-dynamic kits take the active aerodynamics of sedans to the next level and we bet you can feel the difference.

23. 2023 Bentley Flying Spur Speed

The 2023 Bentley Flying Spur comes with various powertrain options right now, and that includes a twin-turbo V8, a turbocharged V6 PHEV, and the raw twin-turbo 6.-liter W12 engine, depending on the trim you choose. Now, the Flying Spur with this 12 Cylinder is called the Bentley Flying Spur Speed, and this 6.0-liter W12 makes 626 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. All this power is sent to the wheels via a smooth 8-speed automatic transmission, helping the Flying Spur Speed do 0-60 in jsut 3.7 seconds.

As a super-luxurious mammoth on wheels, this number is quite insane for the Bentley Flying Spur Speed, and the top speed is also rated at 207 mph as of now!

Well, the 2023 Bentley Flying Spur has a starting price of just around $210,000, but if you want four more cylinders, then you have to shell out atleast $261,425, before you add any options and customizations to your car. Bentley offers hundreds of customization options on their website, and you surely can make your one-of-one Flying Spur-Speed, by spending more!

23. 2023 Maserati Grecale Trofeo

The 2023 Maserati Grecale Trofeo is one of the fastest compact SUVs you can buy in the luxury car market, and it can do 0-60 in just 3.6 seconds! Now, if you're wondering how, then the 3.0-liter V6 motor puts out 523 horses and 457 lb-ft of torque, and swift 8-speed automatic transmission sends the power to all four wheels ensuring better traction and a powerful launch from standstill.

The 2023 Maserati Grecale Trofeo might be a small compact SUV, but it comes with a hefty price tag of $105,500, and that's what makes many people set back from the Grecale and go for something like a BMW X3 M or Audi SQ5!

20. 2023 Cadillac CT-5 V Blackwing

You cannot ignore the Cadillac CT-5 V Blackwing for a long time. In fact, these are now equipped with a new supercharged engine. If you want a sports car with performance, this sedan gives you that. It goes stupendously fast, and by that, we mean making 0-60 in 3.6 seconds.

On the other hand, for the quarter-mile distance, it takes 11.6 seconds. The Cadillac CT-5 V Blackwing has a top speed of 205 mph, making it an astounding rocket on the road.

All thanks to a new 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine that makes 668 HP and 659 LB-FT of torque. The Cadillac CT-5 V Blackwing's price is $93,390.

Despite its star-of-the-show attitude, its precise handling and athletic behavior surely make it a sports car, but with four doors. The super-light steering wheel listens to your every command, and when it's time to control the speeds, the Brembo brakes with slotted rotors do their job with full responsibility.

19. 2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio 

An unbeatable blend of gorgeous looks and power, the 2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio is the perfect example of what the world will miss once the EVs take over. Powered by a Ferrari derived Twin Turbocharged V6 engine the Giulia offers BMW M3 rivaling driving dynamics and features an engine that begs to rev. The perfectly weighted steering, communicative chassis, and plenty of drive modes allow the 2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio to cross 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds, a number rather impressive for an RWD-only car.

Similarly, buyers can also choose the 2024 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio which offers similar levels of fun but with substantially more passenger space and cargo room. While the 2023 BMW M3 still comes with a 6-speed Manual albeit with RWD only.

 18. 2023 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat 

The old-school muscle from Detroit is still kicking with a tried and true 700hp Hellcat engine and a boatload of practicality. Before calling it a day, Dodge has even introduced “Redeye” and “JailBreak” versions of the 2023 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat that come with ridiculous 797 and 807 hp. Dodge has also given performance-enhancing features like Dodge Performance pages, SRT Launch Control, and three modes of adjustable suspension that all work in harmony to provide maximum traction off the line.

The 2023 Dodge Hellcat is practically peerless. Buyers who are looking for an AWD for perfect launches can check out the Durango Hellcat. Meanwhile, Dodge has given plenty of Jailbreak, Widebody, and Redeye editions for the last model year of what could only be described as one of the most unapologetic, hardcore, and sensational sedans ever made.

23. 2023 Kia EV6 GT

The Kia EV6 is one hell of an electric car which will offer you supercar-speed while you pay only for a family-crossover. The 2023 Kia EV6 GT comes with multiple electric motors that produce a whopping 576 horsepower and 545 lb-ft of torque in total. And all this power being generated via a set of electric motor, means that it's instanteneous!

The EV6 GT does 0-60 mph in just 3.4 seconds while the top speed is rated at 161 mph!

17. 2023 Audi RS3

This is the cheapest Audi RS car, the RS3. Audi has always been into performance and out-of-this-world technologies in its cars. The RS3 sedan is a perfect blend of both of them. This little pocket has a stick of dynamite inside, which blasts very fast.

It means it takes only 3.3 seconds to go 0-60. Is Audi kidding us? But yeah, it is a fact. In fact, you cover a quarter-mile distance in just 11.8 seconds. The Audi RS3's top speed is 159 mph (limited).

These insane figures are possible thanks to a creditworthy 2.5 Liter turbocharged inline-5 cylinder engine that makes 401 HP and 369 LB-FT of torque. The Audi RS3 price is $61,995.

Apart from a characterful personality, you get a solid grip around the corners. The speeds it captures are praiseworthy. However, properly cushioned seats won't let you feel that you are seated in a performance sedan. The initially provided exhaust system is loud, but if you want to wake up your neighbors, the optional RS Sport exhaust is recommended.

16. 2023 Bentley Bentayga 

British luxury car manufacturer Bentley is among those brands that believe in utmost perfection and opulence. Its Bentayga SUV is not only among the most luxurious SUVs in the world but is also among the fastest ones. By "fastest," we mean, it is capable of hitting 0-60 in 3.3 seconds even with its base V8 engine.

Similarly, for the quarter-mile distance, it takes only 12 seconds to reach. The Bentley Bentayga's top speed is 180 mph.

The standard V8 makes the Bentayga V8 a good racer. It makes 542 HP and 510 LB-FT of torque. The Bentley Bentayga V8 price is $200,225.

Who would say an SUV this heavy and loaded with luxuries would go insanely fast? Its dynamic ride suspensions, with the help of electric motors, minimize body roll. The car feels planted, and you can never have a problem driving it on long drives since its super comfy seats deliver a sense of utmost opulence and comfort to you.

15. 2023 Rivian R1T & 2023 R1S

Here comes our next car. The Rivian R1T and R1S twins both share a platform, chassis, motor, battery pack, and styling, even though they both have two different body styles. However, the R1T and R1S both do the 0-60 sprint in 3.0 seconds and have a top speed of 125 mph.

This comes with respect to the quad-electric motor setup, which makes 835 hp and 908 lb-ft of torque on both vehicles.

The R1T starts at $74,800, with the R1S priced at $79,800.

14. 2023 Audi RS7

Discussing the fastest cars and not including Audi cars will disrespect its legacy. The Audi RS7 is a sportsback version, but it is the fastest sportsback in our opinion; Why? Since it can go from 0 to 60 in 3 seconds, there is no point in arguing about its unrivaled performance. The government has set a speed limit of 155 mph for it.

With a mild-hybrid system attached to its quirky 4.0L twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the RS7 makes 591 HP and 590 LB-FT of torque. The Audi RS7 price is $125,995.

Not only does the hatchback sportsback body styling benefit aerodynamic efficiency, but it also brings lots of utility. Its standard all-wheel steering improves stability at high speeds and delivers a smaller turning radius. The super-sharp handling and great performance around the corners are something we are huge fans of.

13. 2023  Mercedes-AMG E63 S 4MATIC

Next comes the 2023 Mercedes-AMG E63 S 4MATIC sedan. This is the pride of Mercedes-AMG cars. Being one of the fastest Mercedes-AMG sedans, the AMG E63 S goes 0-60 in 3 seconds, while the quarter-mile distance is done in just 11.1 seconds.

The AMG E63 S sedan's top speed is 186 mph. All of this is made possible by the mega 4.0L twin-turbocharged V8 engine that derives 603 HP and 627 LB-FT of torque. The AMG E63 S's price is $113,950.

Its exquisite interior, appropriate design, and an array of comfort features never let you forget you are sitting in a Mercedes car. Further, sport-tuned all-wheel drive, sport-tuned suspensions, a heated steering wheel, and a bunch of other features contribute to making it a strong race car. The super attentive steering is just nuts, while the throttle its engine serves is mind-blowing.

12. 2023 Lamborghini Urus Performante

SUVs also come in 4-door format, and look what we have here. The Lamborghini Urus Performante--the fastest gas-powered SUV in 2023, beating the DBX 707 by a 0.1-second margin. Yes! This new champion is able to hit 0-60 in 3 seconds. Meanwhile, the quarter-mile timing of the Urus Performante is 11.2 seconds, which is insane, thanks to its top speed of 190 mph.

This power, speed, and performance are bought thanks to an upgraded 4.0L twin-turbocharged V8 engine that makes 657 HP and 627 LB-FT of torque.

The Urus Performante's price is $270,000 and will go on sale next year. Sticking to its name, Lamborghini delivers what it has promised. This high-performance SUV is also a good off-roader. With improved comfort and dedicated switches to define the Performance version, this is a huge leap among its siblings.

1.2023 Lucid Air Sapphire 

Unsurprisingly, the fastest four-door car ever built is an electric one that can teach a thing or two about speed to seemingly indomitable Tesla Model S plaid. The 2023 Lucid Air Sapphire is powered by a 1235 hp tri motor setup and cutting edge traction control system that hauls the sedan to 60 mph in blindingly quick 1.89 seconds and can cross a quarter mile in Nevera rivaling 8.9 seconds.
