McMurtry Spierling:
A road-going 1100 horsepower twin-motor single-seater McMurtry Spierling that can reach 150 mph and 300 miles per hour if you apply gentle pressure to the go-quiet pedal costs an astounding £820,000. It debuted at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in 2021 and made a reappearance in 2022, finishing the 1.16-mile track in 39.08 seconds and setting a new record for hill climbs. Using GPS timing gear, it also broke the record for the fastest road automobile acceleration, reaching 60 mph in just 1.4 seconds and 100 mph in just 2.6 seconds. This is because the car has a fan installed on the underside that draws the vehicle into the road to improve downforce.
Tesla Model Y Performance:
The performance variant of Tesla's family SUV is offered in multiple configurations and has a top speed of 155 mph. It can reach 62 mph in 3.5 seconds. The Model Y Performance has been known to outperform the factory estimates in real-world testing, with results indicating a 3.3-second 0-62-mph time and an 8.1-second 0-100-mph time—one second faster than Tesla says. Costs for the Performance start at £59,990.
Porsche Taycan Turismo Turbo S:
Should you possess an additional £149,300, you might purchase the 162 mph Taycan Turismo Turbo S. When launch control is active, the car can accelerate from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 2.8 seconds, which is comparable to the 918 supercar's acceleration stats. Its two electric motors provide 751 horsepower and 774 lb-ft of torque, which enables it to accelerate from rest to 124 mph in 9.6 seconds and from 49 mph to 74 mph in 1.7 seconds.
Kia EV6 GT:
While it's not often that Kia produces a vehicle that can compete with a Porsche in a maximum speed run, the EV6 GT can reach 162 mph straight up. It can travel 263 miles on a single charge if you tread softly.
Power is a Lamborghini-rivalling 577 horsepower and 545 pound-feet of torque, translating into a 3.5-second 0-62 mph speed. The starting price is £61,895.
Tesla Model X Plaid:
The Tesla Plaid quickly became well-known on social media after the company teased it, with a quarter-mile time of about 10 seconds and a 0–60 mph acceleration time of 2.5 seconds. 1020bhp is enough to drive this 2.6-tonne SUV to a top speed of 163mph and it’ll offer 311 miles on a single charge. Furthermore, as it is not stated anywhere that a steering wheel must be circular, buyers in the UK also receive the yoke-style steering wheel. The starting price is £125,000.
Lotus Eletre R:
These days, most sports car manufacturers release an SUV, and Lotus has done the same with the 905 bhp/726 lb-ft Eletre R. With a top speed of 165 mph and a 0 to 60 time of 2.9 seconds, it is reportedly the fastest dual-motor all-electric SUV in the world. Its boot can hold up to 688 liters of stuff. Its range is 304 miles. According to Lotus, the Eletre R will cost £120,000, which is £30,500 more than the Eletre base model.
Lucid Air Performance:
The Air's dual-motor setup produces 1097bhp and 1025lb ft of power, and because it is paired with a 118kWh battery, it can go 471 miles on a single charge. Thanks to its four-wheel drive system, the Air can reach 168 mph and accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.7 seconds while traveling at straight line speeds. Rear-wheel drive is standard on base vehicles, which are priced slightly lower at £69,000 than the current top-of-the-line Dream Edition Performance at £188,100.
Volkswagen ID. R:
VW's first all-electric racer, the ID.R, is not available as a road vehicle. It started breaking records in 2018 when it ascended Pikes Peak in less than 8 minutes at an average speed of 94 mph, more than a full minute faster than the previous record for an electric car.
With a timing of 6 minutes and 5 seconds in 2019, it took to the Nürburgring and smashed the record for electric cars, hitting top speeds of 170 mph. Additionally, the ID R set a record that year when it raced up the Goodwood hill climb, finishing in 39:90 seconds.
Hispano Suiza Carmen Boulogne:
Although Hispano Suiza isn't often associated with Ferrari or Lamborghini, the company has been in the automobile business since 1904 and even produced engines for World War I aviation. With 1114 horsepower and 845 pound-feet of torque, the Carmen Boulogne is the brand's first vehicle in 74 years and can reach a high speed of 180 mph in just 2.6 seconds. Only 19 Carmen Bolougnes, each costing £1.4 million, will be constructed; this represents a £120,000 price increase over the ordinary car.
