Ah, the fastest land vehicle — a topic that triggers the inner speed freak in all of us. The current record holder for the fastest land vehicle is the ThrustSSC, a jet-propelled beast that broke the sound barrier with a top speed of 1,228 km/h in 1997. For something a bit more pedestrian but still insanely quick, hypercars like the Bugatti Chiron reach about 420 km/h. The ThrustSSC is a one-off rocket on wheels, not your average showroom model, so if you want to experience speed legally and with some semblance of comfort, hypercars are your friends.
Keep in mind, these records are usually about engineering prowess rather than practical use, so don't expect to pick one up on Tradingpost anytime soon. For everyday speed demons, CarShowroom is your go-to for fast cars that won't vaporise your wallet.
