BUGATTI VEYRON
A supercar like no other, the Bugatti
Veyron absolutely
defined the supercar
market for the past decade, serving as
the measuring stick for
the entire segment.
And that's exactly
what it was designed
to do.

Like the Veyron before it, the Bugatti Chiron is expected to hit the market with potential to blow the world speed record away. Its spec sheet may very well include a 288 mph (463.5
km/h) top speed, along with a 0-62 mph time in the low 2s.

HENNESSEY
That's pushing 20 mph (32 km/h) over the current unofficial world
speed record, which Hennessey notched at 270.49 mph (435.31
km/h) in February 2014, after an ultimately unsuccessful attempt at
beating Bugatti by sneaking through the back door.

LOTUS SUPERCAR
The new super-supedlittle Lotus from Texas isn't only more powerful than its predecessor; it's also more aerodynamic, with drag coefficient dropping from 0.44 to below 0.40.

0 to 200 mph
The "290 mph is within reach" scrawled atop Hennessey's Venom F5 press release sets up a rather nice potential head-to-head with the 288-mph Chiron. The Venom F5 is supposed to make its official debut this year.

TUATARA
Back in 2011, American supercar outfit SSC introduced the Tuatara, an otherworldly 1,350-bhp successor to the Ultimate Aero TT, the 1,183-hp SSC car that held a 256-mph speed record before Bugatti took it away in 2010.

LaFerrari Exotic Hybrid
Looking back, 2013 was a HUGE year for the hyper hybrid. Both the LaFerrari and McLaren P1 debuted at the Geneva Motor Show that year, and the production Porsche 918 Spyder debuted at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show.

Gas vs Electric Supercars
Each of those hybrid exotics features a unique gas-electric
layout, but they all utilize electric power toward delivering some
of the world's most powerful, quick performance on
straightaways and curves.
At 887-hp, the Porsche 918 Spyder is the least powerful of the Big
3, but so far, it's been the most impressive on the asphalt.

All three modern hyper hybrids enjoy seats up at the tippity top of
world's quickest production cars, and two of them do it while
improving the abysmal, world-worst fuel economy ratings that
hypercars are notorious for.

The supercar is about to get much larger and more practical.
Saying it a different way, the crossover is about to get much more
super. After watching Porsche and other premium brands ride
best-selling SUV models to the bank year after year, a number of
prestigious sports nameplates are prepared to get in on the
action.

Onwards and Upwards
It's September, so we're approaching the home stretch of 2015,
but that doesn't mean we can't expect at least a few more
amazing production and concept supercar debuts. With earlier
debuts like the Regera, DBX, 1MW Concept and Ford GT, 2015 has
the potential to rival 2013 in terms of high-tech, cutting-edge
exotic cars.
