Best Fastest Car In The World

Porsche Panamera Turbo S e-Hybrid -- 670bhp, 192mph

After we drove the 550bhp Panamera Turbo S, nothing about its batty performance made us feel like an 'S' variation was necessary. However, Porsche is, it appears, even sillier than the likes of us. So it added power to the Panamera, using lessons it learned in the progression of the 918 Spyder hypercar. The way you might ever want this much car in your own life is beyond us, but if you're overdue for a Greenpeace convention, or fearful of flying, this is a monumental continent crusher that can't run out of cost.

Lamborghini Aventador S -- 730bhp, 217mph

Talking of V12s, Lamborghini's flagship needed a proper workover in 2017 so as to keep pace with the aptly-named 812 Superfast. The Aventador S's big invention is rear-wheel steering, that provides the new big bull something approaching agility, however the extra 40bhp wrung in the 6.5-litre V12 is a bonus worth using.

McLaren 720S -- 710bhp, 211mph

The McLaren 720S has attracted hypercar performance to the supercar realm. It is vividly quick, and on the road, you'd struggle to see a gap in impulse between it and the P1. But besides being a land-borne missile, it's also really engaging to drive at low speed and incredibly friendly and approachable, which is even more of an achievement than its spectacular performance. It's TG's supercar of this year.

Apollo Intensa Emozione -- 769bhp, 208mph

The Apollo had us at 'Batmobile-inspired styling'. Subsequently it kept on winning us over with its 769bhp Ferrari-derived V12 and purist inspirations. The IE is designed for track work only, but if all ten get sold, it'll fund a road car that'll hopefully look at least half as bonkers. That is exactly what supercars are about, right?

Tesla Roadster -- n/a bhp, 250mph (claimed)

Making no noise at all, on the other hand, is Tesla's first entry into the supercar bear-pit. That's okay though -- Twitter and internet forums create more than enough noise to compensate for your silence of electric motors. In the event the new Roadster ever does see the light of day, we're guaranteed a 620-mile selection, performance to embarrass a Bugatti, and all for a relatively reasonable $200,000. It could be a utopian supercar. Now all Tesla must do is bring it to market in time.
