5 cars with the most torque in 2017

As car legend Carroll Shelby once said, "buy a car and ask for power, race a car and ask for torque", the commercial cars below can satisfy speed enthusiasts.

1. Koenigsegg Regera 2017

Holding the throne of the commercial vehicle with the most torque, the Koenigsegg Regera enters the 2017 generation with both power and torque greater than the "king of speed" Bugatti Chiron (in 2nd place on the list).

However, Koenigsegg does not call the 2017 Regera a supercar. They call their flagship a plug-in hybrid megacar. Megacar is a new term used to define top-of-the-line supercars with a power output of over 1 megawatt, equivalent to 1,340.5 horsepower.

The Swedish "monster" can reach 300 km/h in less than 10 seconds thanks to a twin-turbocharged, 5-liter V8 engine. This engine produces a maximum capacity of 1,100 horsepower and a maximum torque of 1,280 Nm.

Those numbers alone wouldn't make the Regera the most torquey production car, so founder Christian Von Koenigsegg added three electric motors, one of which acts as the transmission.

Each rear wheel is equipped with an electric motor, producing an additional 245 horsepower and 260 Nm. The third electric motor produces 218 horsepower and 300 Nm.

In total, the 2017 Koenigsegg Regera has a power of up to 1,800 horsepower and 2,100 Nm.

2. Bugatti Chiron 2017

Although considered a redesign of the Veyron and using the engine, gearbox and some components from its predecessor, the Chiron has taken Bugatti to a new level with technologies that boost the power of the world's fastest supercar.

Thanks to its 8-liter quad-turbocharged W16 engine, the Chiron can produce at least 1,500 horsepower and 1,600 Nm to all four wheels.

Although not as high as the Koenigsegg Regera, the above parameters help the Bugatti Chiron be the commercial production car with the greatest power and torque without the support of an electric motor.

Up to this point, Chiron is also the most expensive car produced in the largest quantity (about 500 cars).

Another record for the Bugatti Chiron is its top speed of 420 km/h. The French carmaker also confirmed that this is a limit for safety reasons. If "let loose", the Chiron can reach even greater speeds. And that is the reason why the car's clock line shows the number 500.

3. Pagani Huayra BC 2017

Named after Benny Caiola - the first customer and close friend of Horacio Pagani, the Huayra BC is the second most powerful Italian road car, behind the Ferrari LaFerrari.

Unlike Ferrari which uses a naturally aspirated V12 engine and an electric motor, Pagani uses a twin-turbocharged, 6-liter V12 engine, producing a maximum capacity of 800 horsepower and a maximum torque of 1,200 Nm.

The above parameters will become more impressive when the weight of Pagani Huayra BC is only 1,218 kg.

4. Bentley Mulsanne Speed ​​2017

In 2016, Bentley Mulsanne Speed ​​ranked 2nd but after a year, this super luxury car dropped to 4th place when its competitors had superior technology.

However, Bentley can still be proud that a car that focuses on luxury beauty can still reach the parameters that belong to a supercar. The twin-turbocharged, 6.75-liter V8 engine produces a maximum capacity of 530 horsepower and 1,100 Nm of torque.

The British car company can be prouder as this engine block is the "oldest" on the list, having been developed since 1959.

5. Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 2018

Dubbed the "new monster of the world's automobile industry", the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is the world's most powerful commercial muscle car.

Supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine for maximum capacity of 840 horsepower, maximum torque of 1,044 Nm.

Not only that, the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is also a car that can do wheelies on the entire drag race track (about 400 m), and is also the fastest drag racing car (400 m) in the world with a record of 9.65 seconds at a speed of 225 km/h, certified by NHRA - National Hot Rod Association of America.

Another special feature, the 2017 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is also the world's first commercial, street-legal vehicle designed to use high-octane unleaded gasoline (100+).
