Whether you are a Car connoisseur or not, it’s always a good idea to compare different models from various brands before you make a final decision making a purchase. You might be a rookie when it comes to picking top cars or an expert, either way, it is not possible for one person to know about all the leading car models or to keep up with all new releases, and all while deciding which one is the best. This list makes the job much easier. Ranking cars is quite a difficult job, considering the variety of features and different criteria to follow. They can be ranked based on the best engine displacements with the highest horsepower, the highest speeds achievable by the car, the one with the best acceleration, the one with the best aerodynamics and stability, etc.
The most expensive car to be ever produced by Bugatti. Bugatti La Voiture Noire is one of the most expensive cars and is the rarest one to exist. The reason is that this car has a Gold version which serves as the flagship, and there is only one of these manufactured; yeah, you heard right, only one. Although, you still can get your hands on its silver versions, as they are the little toned-down brothers. This car is made as a reinterpretation of Jean Bugatti’s personal car, the Type 57 SC Atlantic. It uses the same engine as the Bugatti Chiron as its basis – a 7993 cc 8.0L W16 engine. The power output is 1500 bhp, and the torque output is 1600NM, and the car has a 7-speed automatic transmission.
The car is capable of accelerating from 0 mph to 60 mph in 2.4 seconds. The outside design represents the very essence of Bugatti’s motto. The whole body speaks of elegance and eye-grabbing features. The body is a single-piece work of craftsmanship that is handcrafted with carbon fiber from head to toe, giving it an all-black look. Not to mention the headlight design and light patterns being the cherry on top.
