3 – KOENIGSEGG AGERA RS: 278 MPH

When Koenigsegg reached an average speed of 277.9 mph in November 2017, the Agera RS, the most potent model of the Agera, overtook it as the fastest automobile in the world. Although the record was broken in less than two years, the Agera RS still holds other records, including those for 0 to 200 mph acceleration, 200 mph braking, and 0 to 200 mph and back to complete stop. Koenigsegg, unlike Bugatti, did not create a limited-edition Agera RS to commemorate the record, although there were only 25 made overall.
