Tag Archives: Top Lists

Acceleration is undoubtedly one of the most exciting factors that a car brings. Here we would like to make it clear that the fastest car and the quickest car are two different terminologies. Fastest refers to the acceleration of the car, and quickest refers to the maximum speed of the car. In the last decade, many cars have been launched with the capability to deliver 0-60 under 3 seconds. In fact, this time has become almost commonplace, especially when it comes to the uppermost echelon of the fastest accelerating cars in the world. 0-60 is known as the gold standard the car manufacturing companies use to measure the performance of their cars.

It’s important to note that achieving the maximum top speed is easier than achieving the quickest acceleration. That’s because a huge engine plays the most important role when it comes to top speed. On the other hand, maximizing traction and putting the power down immediately is hard. Automotive engineers and experts constantly work on advanced electronics, lightweight materials, tire compounds, and high-performance technologies to achieve faster acceleration than ever.

Here we’ve gathered together the 25 fastest 0-60 production cars of all time. Keep in mind that our list of the fastest 0-60 cars is exclusive to street-legal cars, which are also considered production vehicles.

The F12tdf (tour de France) is a track-focused version of the F12berlinetta unveiled in October 2015.[12] The name pays homage to the Tour de France automobile race held between 1899 and 1986 and which was regularly won by the Ferrari 250 between 1956 and 1964. The F12tdf shares the same 6.3 litre V12 engine with the F12berlinetta, but with power output increased to 780 PS (574 kW; 769 hp) at 8500 rpm and 705 N⋅m (520 lb⋅ft) of torque at 6750 rpm.

Ferrari claimed the F12tdf to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.9 seconds and 0 to 200 km/h (124 mph) in 7.9 seconds. The top speed was claimed to be ‘in excess of 340 km/h (211 mph)’.

The holidays are just around the corner, which means it’s time to come up with your dinner time conversation pieces. There are a few things that everyone knows about the major supercars in today’s market, their power specs, engine and transmission options, where it sits in a legacy line or how quickly it can accelerate from zero to 60 mph. But then there are the things that only a few people are aware of, little known supercar facts that might make you look at a supercar in a different light, or at least understand how truly awe-inspiring these mechanical feats are.

To help jump-start your research, we’ve compiled 10 of some of the most interesting or unique facts about the best sports cars and some of the most powerful supercars out there. Read them up, memorize them for later and be sure to let us know when you get to show off your knowledge.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat for saleDodge Challenger SRT Hellcat

Fuel Injectors

1.) The thirsty fuel injectors of Dodge’s Challenger SRT Hellcat could drain an Olympic-sized pool in 361 days. Each of the eight injectors can flow 600 cubic centimeters per minute, for a total of 4,800 cc/minute. An Olympic pool is approximately 2,500,000,000 cc. Some simple arithmetic gives us 8680.5 hours, or 361 days, for the engine to drain that amount of fuel. (Source: Dodge)

Radiators

2.) Due to the heat generated by its massive sixteen cylinder quad-turbo engine, the Bugatti Veyron has 12 radiators strategically placed throughout the body. To cool such an engine with a single radiator would require it to be about the size of a pool table. In order to create a sleek profile, smaller radiators are used in areas of high air pressure to keep the beast from a meltdown. (Source: Car and Driver)

Big Blocks

3.) In the early 1990s, when McLaren was developing the transmission and brakes for their upcoming F1, they used a 454ci (7.4L) Chevrolet Big Block V8 to ensure that their components could handle the power of the BMW sourced V12. (Source: UltimaSports.co.uk)

Tractors

4.) Ferruccio Lamborghini started a successful tractor and farm implement business after WWII. Gifted with mechanical expertise, he disassembled his Ferrari to investigate why the clutch repeatedly failed. He improved the design and created an enemy out of Enzo Ferrari. The rest is history. (Source: Lambocars.com)

Slow Down Buick

5.) The fastest American car in 1987 was the 245 hp turbocharged Buick GNX. Based on the Regal Grand National, it was much quicker than the Corvette. Chevrolet was not amused, and the GNX was canceled with only 547 cars produced. (Source: GM)

Zero Options

6.) The first production Dodge Vipers had no windows, exterior door handles, or even anti-lock brakes. (Source: Edumunds)

8 is better than 6

7.) For 1953 and 1954, Corvettes were powered by the ancient “Sovebolt” inline six-cylinder engine. It was a sales and performance failure until the V8 arrived in 1955. (Source: 69corvette.com)

Show Me the Money

8.) The 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO is the most expensive supercar ever sold. Last year a pristine example sold for $52 million to an unidentified buyer. (Source: Bloomberg)

Twins

9.) Lamborghini’s Gallardo and Audi’s R8 are cousins. Sharing the same chassis and interior layout, the differences are mostly cosmetic.


Bolts

10) The Pagani Huayra uses 1,400 titanium bolts at $80 each, resulting in a cost of $112,000 for the bolts alone. Mr. Pagani has pioneered new techniques for titanium machining, and his grade-7 hardware has his logo etched into the bolt heads. Read more about these bolts in our article here.
