First, however, we owe it to the SSC Tuatara to tell the whole story and in the correct order, and that does begin with going over 300mph on a seven-mile stretch of highway in Nevada – indeed the same stretch of road that Koenigsegg used for its own record attempt with the Agera RS.
Steel-nerved racing driver Oliver Webb hopped in the car and clocked a max speed of 301.07 mph (484.53 km/h) on his first run. To get an average speed, he pointed the car in the opposite direction, buried the accelerator and clocked a speed of 331.15 mph (532.93 km/h). Do the maths and the average speed works out at 316.2 mph (508.73 km/h), making the SSC Tuatara faster than the Bugatti Chiron and ultimately the fastest production car ever! And we do mean bonafide production car: street legal rubber, and fuel that won’t burn off your eyebrows just by smelling it.
