The SSC Tuatara is officially the world’s fastest car, but it’s not the world’s first 300 mph production car. That title’s still up for grabs after YouTubers called shenanigans on SSC’s claimed 316 mph run in 2020. But this car sure looks capable.

The SSC Tuatara was the world’s fastest car by a long shot. Then it wasn’t. Then it was again … by a much skinnier margin. Now SSC is taking a break from the screaming straightaways in a bid to prove that the world’s fastest car is more than a runway… Continue reading SSC gives world’s fastest car even more aggression with menacing aero
Shelby Supercars has cemented its claim that the SSC Tuatara is the world’s fastest car – but in a weirdly underwhelming fashion. Its new record of 282.9 mph (455.3 km/h) is nowhere near the previous claim, which was sensationally debunked last year in a storm of internet controversy.

Thirteen years after it made a name for itself with its first world speed record, SSC has done it again, absolutely blowing the field away with a new official world speed record. On Saturday, October 10, on a dry, sun-drenched stretch of state highway outside Las Vegas, pro driver Oliver Webb took the wheel of the 1,750-hp SSC Tuatara and pushed it past the elusive 300-mph (483-km/h) barrier … and just kept going. The Tuatara averaged an incredible 316.11 mph (508.73 km/h) on its official two-way run, hitting a mind-blowing 331.15 mph (532.93 km/h) on the return leg and forever cementing its place in automotive history.

At 1,750 horsepower (on E85 fuel), the ludicrous rear-wheel drive SSC Tuatara hypercar is designed to break 300 mph (482 km/h). So it barely gets into 4th gear on the hectic sprint from 60-120 mph (100-200 km/h) in this newly released video.Continue Re… Continue reading Watch the 1750-hp SSC Tuatara blast from 60-120mph in 2.5 seconds
We were wondering if it was vaporware for a while there, but SSC North America has unveiled the first production model of its 1,750 horsepower, twin-turbo V8 Tuatara hypercar.

Way back in 2011, a year after Bugatti had set its long-standing world speed record, SSC showed it had no intention of relinquishing the title for good, revealing the silky smooth 1,350-hp Tuatara. Things seemed like they were moving along, but then the Tuatara went MIA and looked like it had become a member of the vaporware club. The all-American supercar reemerged in Pebble Beach last year, just as a new round of “world’s fastest” is growing hotter and hotter. Tuatara production is now underway, marking a rather important step in the Tuatara’s quest to become world’s speediest production car.
