With a claimed top speed of 211 mph, the name 812 Superfast is not mere hyperbole. This curvaceous coupe is packing a 789-hp 6.5-liter V-12 under its hood, driving the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. An active diffuser and aerodynamically shaped body panels help the 812 Superfast slice through the air with minimal drag and on to its heroic maximum velocity....
A moving contradiction—albeit a very fast-moving one—the X6 M delivers a modicum of functionality with immense performance. Power comes from a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8 producing 567 hp, delivered to BMW’s xDrive all-wheel-drive system through an eight-speed automatic transmission. Practicality is a relative term here, but the performance-tuned suspension assures that the X6 M goes fast in more than just a straight line. The...
Honda fanboys, your patience has been rewarded: The all-new Civic Type R is here, and it’s glorious. A 306-hp turbo 2.0-liter inline-four with a six-speed manual and front-wheel drive is the only powertrain offered. A front-strut suspension—Honda calls it Dual Axis—reduces the torque steer normally associated with high-powered front-drive vehicles. Navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a 12-speaker stereo are all standard goodies....

The interior boasts acres of leather and a 10.3-inch infotainment screen with...
Leaving the 99.999 percent in its dust, the Chiron is a 1500-hp smackdown of every hypercar ever produced in the history of time. An 8.0-liter 16-cylinder engine utilizes four turbos to make 1500 hp and 1180 lb-ft of torque for what will surely be epic acceleration; Bugatti claims a top speed of 261 mph. A seven-speed automatic routes that power through all four...
If you’ve been dreaming of the next NSX, it’s time to wake up: It’s here in the form of a highly technical and utterly thrilling supercar.
