Tesla Roadster -- n/a bhp, 250mph (claimed)
Making no noise at all, on the other hand, is Tesla's first entrance into the supercar bear-pit. That's fine though -- Twitter and internet forums create more than enough noise to compensate for your silence of electric motors. If the new Roadster ever does see the light of day, we're promised a 620-mile range, functionality to embarrass a Bugatti, and for a relatively reasonable $200,000. It could be a utopian supercar. Now all Tesla has to do is bring it to market on time.
Mercedes-AMG Project One -- 1,000bhp , 217mph
No-one outside AMG has yet driven the Mercedes F1 car for the road known so far just as Project One, but its own stats are suitably barmy to create the cut in this list. Revealed in time to get the 2017 Frankfurt motor show, the ultimate AMG promises to launch in 0-124mph in under six seconds, meaning that thanks to its AWD hybrid grip, it'll eliminate the line as fast as a real F1 car. While, ideally, creating a much neater noise...
Bugatti Chiron -- 1,479bhp, 261mph (claimed)
Although we had been introduced to the new Bugatti Chiron at 2016, we weren't exposed to the complete force of its 1,479bhp quad-turbo W16 until earlier this year. And if that happened, any thoughts of this thing being merely a reheated Veyron quickly vanished. When it's finally unleashed with its limiter, the entire world will be watching.
Ford GT -- 646bhp, 220mph
The Ford GT was first shown to stunned onlookers at the Detroit motor show way back at the start of 2015. It took until 2017 for anyone to get behind the wheel -- on the road. By that point, the race version had taken a course victory at Le Mans. The street car shouldn't operate. Race cars that end up on your way rarely do. But the GT handles to ride , manage skilfully and live up to its newer-than-space-age looks. A landmark car.
