532 km/h… The fastest production car in the world

SSC North America, an American supercar manufacturer, broke the world’s fastest record for mass-produced cars on the 11.3km section of the Nevada Highway. The SSC Tuatara, which boasts 1,750 horsepower, set a record of 508.73km/h in the average maximum speed measurement measured by reciprocating a certain section. Beyond the previous record of 447.19km/h.

Of course, when it comes to the world’s fastest supercar, you can think of the Bugatti Chiron. However, the top speed recorded by the Chiron Supersport 300+ is 490.48km/h, which is measured in one-way, not round-trip, so it does not remain the official Guinness record. In addition, the record for the highest speed in the 1-mile section of the Konigsegg Azera RS was also changed, leaving a record of 503.92 km/h at 1 mile and 517.16 km/h at 1 km.

SSC North America was also the world’s fastest in the pre-Tuatara Aero. Of course, the spot was taken over by Bugatti Veyron or Super Sports three years later and transferred to the Azera RS. There are 12 SSC Tuatara scheduled for production in 2021, and the company is currently planning to develop a follow-up model for Tuatara. The vehicle will output 800-900 horsepower and will be relatively inexpensive, ranging from $400,000 to $500,000 compared to $1.9 million for the Tuatara. Related information can be found here .
