World Fastest Cars Along with their Specifications

Man, since time immemorial is always on a run to reach his/her destination quickly and without any kind of hurdles. For this purpose, he built the so-called cars which help in achieving the desired goal. With the advancements in the engines of the car and the introduction of aerodynamics and reduction of drag effect by replicating the design of an airplane man, has achieved that position where he can reach any place before time and hence eradicating the time allowance concept.  Various cars are there which are driven by people of the world and they are segregated based on their engine power, weight, wheel diameter, chassis design, and material through which it is made and other factors. These factors together determine the efficiency and cost of the car. Now, coming to the point of categorizing these cars based on their speed then we have a few ones which are considered as the world’s fastest cars. Automakers have been racing to produce the fastest car in the world since the early days, but thorough documentation about this battle only goes back to the 1940s. The 1980s was the time when achievement in this genre was made by breaking the 200 mph record. Another record broken was in 2005 when the first car reached 250 mph.

• Mclaren Speedtail
• Saleen S7
• Koenigsegg Agera R

All these cars have outreached their capacity and have proven their best to top the charts. One main thing to note that to increase the speed we need to minimize the effect of drag and therefore should adopt the design of airplanes. Then only we can attain huge speed.

So, start exploring and keep driving!
