Fastest Car in the World - The Bugatti Veyron is the fastest road car in the world. James May is 'Captain Slow'. Will opposites attract? The first thing that struck me about the Bugatti Veyron was not, fortunately, the Bugatti Veyron itself. But only just. |

James May takes the Bugatti Veryon to its top speed of 407km/h on a track in Germany.The first thing that struck me about the Bugatti Veyron was not, fortunately, the Bugatti Veyron itself. But only just.I was standing in the middle of the small and deliberately darkened hotel courtyard when a German voice in the darkness advised me to move, 'schnell'.The Veyron swept in and I narrowly avoided becoming the first person in history to be run over by a road car developing more than 1,000 horsepower.That would have put me up there with that bloke who fell under the wheels of Stephenson's Rocket.Then the lights came on, to subdued cheering, and something else struck me. The Veyron is not ridiculous. [More] [Less] |

Tesla Motors has taken 520 reservations for the Model S, an all-electric family sedan that carries up to seven people and travels up to 300 miles per charge.
Tesla launched the car March 26, and orders immediately began streaming in online and at showrooms in California. Tesla plans to open stores in Chicago, London, New York, Miami, Seattle, Washington, D.C. and Munich this year.
"Frankly the number of cars reserved in the first week has exceeded our optimistic internal projections," said Tesla CEO, Chairman and Product Architect Elon Musk. "Enthusiasm surrounding the Model S is proof that there's pent-up demand for more affordable, fuel-efficient vehicles – including those made in America." [More] [Less] |
