20. 2023 Dodge Challenger Demon 170

The Dodge Challenger Demon 170 is one of those cars that were made to shame hypercar makers for asking unreasonable amounts of money and still not being able to provide the right performance figures to their customers.

The Pininfarina Battista uses four permanent magnet synchronous motors that make 1900 HP and 1,696 LB-FT of torque. It can go 0-60 in 1.79 seconds, but surprisingly, it has the lowest top speed on our list.

18. 2023 Bugatti Divo

This article is flooded with Bugatti cars, and here is the Bugatti Divo. This dual-tone Bugatti is something that only billionaires have the courage to see in their dreams. And since it's a Bugatti, extreme performance, impeccable aerodynamics, and super exclusivity come by default.

That famed quad-turbocharged W16 engine makes only 1500 horsepower. However, instead of being the fastest on a straight line, this Bugatti focuses around the corners, it brings as much as an astonishing 1.6G of grip.

12. 2018 Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR PRO

In the year 2020, Aston Martin bought its ultimate beast to grace the eyes of some shoppers and many dreamers. The aim was simple: to challenge the laws of gravity and physics by delivering a mind-boggling acceleration.

Aston Martin made this possible thanks to a super-light body design. It claimed the AMR PRO (which is a track-only version) has a better power-to-weight ratio than the Koeniggesegg One:1. It had around 1 metric horsepower for each kilogram of weight. The AMR Pro, weighted below 1000 kg or 2205 lbs, brings 1100 hp. On a clear note, it has 1.15 metric hp for each Kilogram of weight.

Production was limited to just 25 units, and each one was priced at $4.2 million.

The Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR PRO has a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine that is assisted by an electric motor but ditches the hybrid setup of its somewhat sane sibling. All of them deliver a combined output of more than 1100 HP and 682 LB-FT of torque.

A total of 80 units of the Koenigsegg Regera were produced, with each one costing more than $2 million.

The Koenigsegg Regera is powered by a 5.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine that works with three electric motors to produce 1,489 hp and 1,475 lb-ft of torque. The Regera can go from 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds.

To generate the insane speed, its electric powertrain uses a carbon-sleeved permanent magnet AC-synchronous motor system and runs directly through a 1-speed transmission. To provide rigidity to the chassis of the car, a massive 117.0 kWh battery pack is scattered behind the seats, spreading its wings-like structure under the driver and passenger side footwells.

The Rimac Nevera's price is $2.2 million and is limited to just 150 production models.

The Nevera Hypercar has four electric motors, two on the front and two on the rear. Both front motors generate 295 HP and 207 LB-FT of torque each.

SSC had initially claimed that the Tuatara had reached a top speed of 316.11 mph. This was later disproved as the car had another run with ample recording devices and external groups to monitor, where it was able to achieve a top speed of 282.9 mph. However last year SSC Tuatara made history and redeemed itself by setting the world record for fastest production car ever built and clocking 286.1 mph .

Its flat-plane layout lets the car bring firing engine notes. With an innovation in the 9-speed gearbox, it is called Light-Speed Transmission, and the meaning is self-explanatory.
