Hypercar

The Tesla Model S has evolved again, becoming even more outrageous than it already was. Say goodbye to half the steering wheel, the gear selector and indicator stalks, and hello to a high-end gaming computer in the fastest-accelerating car ever made.

Shelby Supercars has cemented its claim that the SSC Tuatara is the world's fastest car – but in a weirdly underwhelming fashion. Its new record of 282.9 mph (455.3 km/h) is nowhere near the previous claim, which was sensationally debunked last year.

The 1,817-horsepower Venom F5 hypercar has been unveiled in production form, along with acceleration figures that would suck the doors off a Koenigsegg Regera and sights firmly set on the recently vacated title of "world's fastest production car."

Bugatti has released a photo dump showing its nascent Bolide hypercar getting a little coy with some of its clothes off. Currently #6 on our list of the world's most powerful cars, the 1,825-hp Bolide prototype is an epically raw rejection of luxury.

Earlier this year, the Hispano Suiza Carmen Boulogne became a favorite in the retrolectric hypercar trend, seamlessly bringing together modernized Dick Tracy-era looks with a ferocious 1,100-hp electric powertrain. Now we see it in action.

A live, updated list of the most powerful cars on the market today, covering all production cars claiming more than 1,000 horsepower.

Naran Automotive has launched its first car, called the Naran. The Naran Naran, if you will. The gentleman behind it, one Mr. Ameerh Naran, promises a luxury GT3 racecar driving experience to the road, and we hope Naran's Naran Naran delivers.

Another day, another completely bonkers electric hypercar. The Elation Freedom offers monstrous electric power, long range and high speeds – and if electric powertrains don't blow your skirt up, they'll make you one with a naturally aspirated V10.

America's Shelby Supercars has more or less abandoned its world's fastest car claim after eagle-eyed YouTubers pointed out a number of embarrassing, possibly costly discrepancies in its video of the SSC Tuatara making a claimed 316-mph two-way run.

Ever wonder what Bugatti's quad-turbo W16 could do if decoupled from heavy, bulbous cars like the Chiron? Bugatti has, too, and it answers with the Bolide, an ultralight 1,825-hp hypercar parked at the bleeding edge of automotive possibility.

Thirteen years after its first world speed record, SSC has done it again, absolutely blowing the field away with an official record. Driver Oliver Webb took the 1,750-hp Tuatara's wheel and pushed past 300 mph (483 km/h) ... and just kept going.

Lotus has finally given the Evija hypercar its first public debut, at Goodwood SpeedWeek. The all-electric monster is taking part in the event's high-octane activities – including the Supercar Run – using electrons instead of fire.
