1. Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut (330 MPH)
If you think the Hennessey Venom F5 is a performance beast, wait until you see the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut in action. We see raw power at its finest whenever we take a look at this hypercar, all thanks to the brilliance of the Swedish auto manufacturer, Koenigsegg. When the Jesko Absolut was first introduced, not only did it break the record of the fastest car in the world, it also set a new world record for other brands to chase. If you’re one of those asking what is the fastest car in the world in 2022; at the time of writing, no other car has been able to surpass or reach the 330 mph (531 km/h) top speed of the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut, making it the fastest car in the world in 2022. This hypercar features a twin-turbocharged 5.0-liter V8 engine so powerful that it cranks out 1600 horsepower on E85 fuel and 1280 horsepower when running on regular gasoline, along with a torque of 1106 pound-feet. The 2022 Jesko Absolut features the world’s lightest V8 crankshaft that weighs just 12.5 kg, a re-designed fuel injection system, and every surface element on the hypercar has been constructed to reduce drag or surrounding turbulence around it while increasing high-speed stability.
2. Hennessey Venom F5 (311 MPH)
In the automotive industry, every production always has a storyline that takes people’s minds back in time, and that’s the same with every production in John Hennessey’s Venom line. When producing this hypercar, Hennessey wanted more than a tribute to the fastest type of tornado, but also something that would blend with the narrative. At the end of the day, the Hennessey Venom F5 was produced, and it did break grounds. Coming with a top speed of 311 mph was a scary way to make a mark, but Hennessey couldn’t care less. The Hennessey Venom F5 is powered by a rear-mid-mounted 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine that churns out 1817 horsepower and 1,193 lb-ft of torque, an industry-best feat. Unfortunately, the Venom F5 was produced in limited numbers of 24 units, so it might be quite challenging to get your hands on one in 2022.
