The Rimac will boast an eye popping 0-100km/h time of 1.85 seconds and will do so with 1408kW of power and 2300Nm of torque. While we wait for the Rimac to launch, let's take a look at some of the fastest accelerating production cars currently on sale. Lamborghini Huracan Evo, Ferrari F8 Tributo - 2.9sec Not too surprising. What is surprising is the number of the fastest accelerating cars that are made by the little guys, the likes of Ariel, Caparo, Radical and even the all-electric crew at Tesla with their Ludicrous mode Model S. That's the beauty of the fast 0 to 60 mph and quarter mile times, it is more about technology than brute force. The model Lucid Air Saphhire is the fastest high-performance electric car from Lucid Motors, reaching 0 - 60 mph in just 1.89 seconds. These are just a few examples of electric car manufacturers that are producing super fast electric cars. The 550bhp single seater weighs just 695kg, and proved to be the fastest vehicle on the day with a -100-0mph time of 8.4sec. Competing Cars 0-100-0 Time (seconds) By 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) time (3.0 s or less) These are standing start (no rollout allowed) acceleration times measured by independent, reliable sources. (Thus these are not precisely comparable with the first table where even 9.5-96.6 km/h times are allowed.) It accelerates faster than any road car ever made: zero to 60 m.p.h. in 1.74 seconds, and zero to a hundred in 3.21 seconds. By now, I was used to the power of hypercars, but it was my first time University of Stuttgart broke the record for the fastest 0-100 km/h acceleration by an electric car. On September 23, 2022, a team of students from the University of Stuttgart broke the record for the fastest 0-100 km/h acceleration by an electric car, reaching the speed in just 1.461 seconds. 100 mph used to be the aspirational goal for early automotive designs. Today almost all cars can achieve 100 mph, and most will get there quickly enough, to make it a practical test. 0-100 mph strikes balance between low speed (0-60 mph, 0-100 kph) and high speed (0-200 kph, 0-250 kph, 0-200 mph) acceleration. Sources The 2021 Tesla Model S Plaid is the fastest EV, and the fastest car for that matter, we've ever tested in 0-60 acceleration, despite the drama surrounding getting data that matched the standard Fastest cars from 0 to 100 mph to 0. Top 40 fastest cars accelerating from 0 to 100 mph and back to 0. Updated February 2023. "Zero to 100 mph to zero" is combined acceleration and braking test where car has to accelerate from standstill to 100 miles per hour and brake to standstill again. dW5VbbT.
