Luxury brands, limited car models, amazing performance and prices that will turn the head of many car lovers. You will find all this in today's article. Let's explore the theme, thanks to which even an elderly man will again turn into a boy, carried away by shiny toys. In other words: today you will find out what the most expensive car in the world looks like.
However, before we get to that, we'll also take a look at other supercars that come with a staggering price tag.
The most expensive car in the world - what determines the price?
Start browsing the rankings and you'll quickly notice a trend. The most expensive cars in most cases come from the stables of brands known for their high prices. Ferrari, Lamborghini or Bugatti have never been cheap - even in the case of base models.
However, in the ranking you will find mainly limited editions. The limited number of copies from the vending machine increases the price, as does special decorations or additional features. The most expensive cars on our list were produced in a single copy, including by a special order of the client.
You are probably already impatient and want to see these miracles. We understand you perfectly, so we skip the long introductory words and go straight to the ranking.
The most expensive cars in the world - TOP 16 rating
Below you will find a ranking of the 16 most expensive cars in the world. You will check how they look and read about the most important parameters.
16. Mercedes AMG Project One - 2,5 million US dollars (approximately 9,3 million PLN)
The assumption of the designers of the only Mercedes in this ranking was simple: "We are transferring technology directly from Formula 1 to a regular car." Such projects rarely go beyond the conceptual realm, but this time they succeeded.
The AMG Project One buyer will get a hybrid-powered vehicle right out of the car – a 6-litre V1,6 turbocharged engine and two additional electric motors. However, the designers decided to add something from each other, resulting in 2 more electric motors.
As a result, this Mercedes model boasts as much as 1000 hp. It has a top speed of 350 km / h and accelerates to 200 km / h in less than 6 seconds.
According to the creators, the only limitation of this beast is the engine. Analysts estimate that the "fifth six" deployed at the limit (even 11 rpm) will last about 500. km. After that, a general overhaul will be necessary.
There will be only 275 copies on the market, each worth $ 2,5 million.
15. Koenigsegg Jesko - 2,8 million US dollars (approximately 10,4 million PLN)
The Swedish brand also takes part in the competition for the most expensive cars. However, in this case, not only the most expensive, but also the fastest. One of the versions of Jesko (named after the father of the founder of the brand) has a speed of 483 km / h.
However, here we are talking about the "standard", which is still impressive in numbers. Under the hood, you'll find a twin-turbocharged V8 engine. Its power ranges from 1280 to 1600 km and depends mainly on fuel. If the driver needs maximum power, he must refuel with the E85.
The maximum torque is 1500 Nm (at 5100 rpm) and the engine accelerates to a maximum of 8500 rpm.
In addition, the car clearly has an automatic transmission with 7 clutches. This allows the driver to shift from 7th to 4th gear without any problems, for example downshifting.
There will be a total of 125 Jesko vehicles on the road, worth $ 2,8 million each.
14. Lykan HyperSport - 3,4 million US dollars (approximately 12,6 million PLN).
As for the first car model created by W Motors, the Lykan HyperSport is very popular. Already at the first presentation in 2013, more than 100 people signed up for the supercar, despite the fact that the company planned to release only 7 units.
However, in this case, the limit is not the only reason for the high price.
Lykan HyperSport looks crazy. The designers have done a great job, and their imagination has led to the creation of a car that can successfully replace Batman's car. And appearance is only the beginning of its merits.
The Lykan engine is a twin-turbo boxer engine that develops 760 horsepower. and a maximum torque of about 1000 Nm. The top speed of the Arab supercar is 395 km / h, and it accelerates to 100 km / h in 2,8 seconds.
The question is, is this enough to justify the price?
If someone answers: no, maybe they will be convinced by the Lykan LED headlights, adorned with real diamonds by the designers. Moreover, the car upholstery is stitched with gold thread. There is something to brag about to your friends.
13. McLaren P1 LM - 3,5 million US dollars (approximately 13 million PLN).
The McLaren P1 LM was born out of the idea of taking a supercar off the track and onto the road. This is an improved version of the P1 GTR.
What does the owner of the car receive in the parcel?
First, a powerful engine - a turbocharged V8 with 1000 hp! In the PM version, the designers increased its volume from 3,8 to almost 4 liters, which led to an even more lively response to gas. On the other hand, they limited the top speed to 345 km/h.
In terms of design, the rider gets a new aerodynamic package with even more aerodynamics, designed to increase downforce by as much as 40%. In addition, there are new center-mounted rims, improved exhaust, seats straight from the F1 GTR and a steering wheel like the Formula 1.
A total of 5 such models were released. Each one for a trifle for 3,5 million dollars.
12. Lamborghini Sian - 3,6 million dollars (about 13,4 million zlotys).
Sian is the first electrified model of Lamborghini, which at one time became the most powerful car of the brand.
It is powered by a powerful 6,5-liter V12 engine (fans already know it from the Aventador SVJ), but in this edition it gets support from the electric unit. As a result, it reaches 819 hp. As for the results on the track, we have acceleration from 2,8 to 250 km / h in less than XNUMX seconds and a top speed of XNUMX km / h.
Let's also pay attention to the unique appearance of the model.
The designers focused on futurism and aerodynamics, which makes the Siana a very original car. However, despite everything, the developers have retained the characteristic lines that bear witness to the Lamborghini brand. The body features strong air intake slots as well as spoilers and aerodynamic elements.
The Italians plan to release only 63 units of the new model, each worth $ 3,6 million.
11. Bugatti Veyron Mansory Vivere - 3 million euros (about PLN 13,5 million).
Despite the fact that the Bugatti Veyron is now its age, it still ranks high among the most expensive cars in the world. That's because we're not talking about the classic Veyron here, but the Mansory Viviere version.
In total, two copies of this model were built for a total of 3 million euros. How are they different from the Bugatti legend?
First of all, the appearance. Some maliciously refer to it as a panda due to the fact that the first model had matte white paint on the sides and a black carbon fiber core. Additional changes include a new front bumper, rear diffuser and special wheels.
Since you are dealing with a supercar, you will find under the bonnet a W16 eight-liter engine with 1200 horsepower. Thanks to him, the Veyron develops an incredible speed of 407 km / h.
10. Pagani Huayra BC Roadster - 2,8 million pounds (about 14,4 million zlotys).
In this case, we are dealing with an updated model of the Pagani Huayra, this time in a version without a roof. This is one of the few cases where an open model works better than a full size model.
This is because the absence of a roof usually means more weight, extra reinforcement, and a less stable body.
However, Pagani has built the new model with a durable material (a combination of carbon fiber and titanium), which makes the body as strong as its predecessor. In addition, it weighs 30 kg less, that is, 1250 kg.
As for the engine, the supercar is powered by the famous six-liter V12. It develops 802 hp. and an incredible 1050 Nm torque. Unfortunately, Pagani did not share information about the characteristics of the car on the track. However, the roadster will definitely not be inferior to the previous coupe, which accelerated from 100 to 2,5 km / h in XNUMX seconds.
A total of 40 units of this model will be built at a significant price of £ 2,8 million.
9. Aston Martin Valkyrie - approx. 15 million zlotys.
According to the then statements of the creators of the Valkyrie, this is the fastest car allowed to drive on state roads. Is it really?
Let's look at the engine.
The Valkyrie is powered by a Cosworth 6,5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine that develops 1000 hp. and a maximum torque of 740 Nm. However, that's not all, as it works with an electric unit that adds 160 hp to each other. and 280 Nm.
As a result, we get as much as 1160 hp. and a maximum torque of over 900 Nm.
Combined with the fact that the new Aston Martin weighs just over a ton (1030 kg), its performance is incredible. Unfortunately, we do not know the details of them, but it is said that it accelerates from 100 to 3 km / h in less than 400 seconds and to a top speed of XNUMX km / h.
It is planned to release only 150 copies of this model, each costing about 15 million zlotys.
8. Bugatti Chiron 300+ - 3,5 million euros (approximately 15,8 million PLN).
Aston Martin soon became the fastest car ever, as Bugatti recently broke the road vehicle speed record with its Chiron. Their supercar reached a speed of 490 km / h.
Under the hood is an 8-liter W16 engine that has a staggering 1500 hp. and as much as 1600 Nm of maximum torque. As a result, it accelerates to 100 km / h in about 2,5 seconds and, as we already know, breaks the speed record.
In terms of looks, the new Chiron stands out with its elongated body and high-performance Michelin tires that can withstand such a fast ride. In addition, each owner will be able to count on increased ground clearance, which will increase road safety.
The unusual model from the Bugatti stable costs "only" 3,5 million euros. It may not be the most expensive car in the world, but so far it is the fastest car that can travel on the road.
7. Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita - $5 million (about PLN 18,6 million)
Koenigsegg is a lesser known brand, but by no means inferior to the popular ones. It is focused on the production of high-speed vehicles, among which the CCXR Trevita stands out.
And that's literally.
The designers made the body from 100% carbon fiber. However, they differed in that, thanks to a special manufacturing process, it is white. This is not all. The case is coated with millions of diamond particles, which guarantees an unprecedented visual experience.
Technically, it's just as good.
The CCXR Trevita is powered by a 4,7-liter V8 engine with 1000 hp. under the hood. As a result, the supercar can accelerate to 100 km / h in less than 2,9 seconds, and its top speed exceeds 400 km / h.
Interestingly, Koenigsegg has produced only 3 examples of this model. The unofficial price of each is $ 5 million.
6. Ferrari Pininfarina Sergio - 3,2 million euros (approximately 20,3 million PLN).
Pininfarina Sergio is a model created on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the collaboration between Pininfarina and Ferrari. However, the production version turned out to be much more restrained than the previous prototype.
The 458 Speciale A is used as the model for the new roadster. It looks very good and has a 4,5-liter V8 engine with 605 hp under the hood. This gives the new Ferrari the performance from 100 to 3 km / h in less than XNUMX seconds.
Only 6 copies of Pinanfarina Sergio entered the market, and each of them found its owner even before production. Buyers have customized the vehicles individually, which makes each model different from each other.
The official price remains a secret, but is estimated at 3,2 million euros.
5. Lamborghini Veneno Roadster - 4,8 million euros (PLN 21,6 million).
And here we are dealing with a car for the elite, which was created for the 50th anniversary of the Italian company. The Veneno Roadster was born from the merger of the Lamborghini Aventador Roadster and the Veneno.
Since it is a roadster, the Italian supercar has no roof. In addition, the designers made the body entirely from polymer-reinforced carbon fiber. Thanks to this, the Veneno Roadster weighs less than 1,5 tons.
What's under the hood?
A 6,5-liter V12 engine with 750 hp is responsible for the drive. With such a heart, the unique Lamborghini reaches 100 km / h in less than 2,9 seconds, and the meter does not stop at 355 km / h. Compared to some of the manufacturers on our list, the Veneno Roadster's results are not impressive.
So where did the price come from?
The car has a collectible value. A total of 9 models were created and delivered to anonymous buyers. Despite the Italian company costing 3,3 million euros per unit, one of the owners recently sold an exotic Lamborghini for 4,8 million euros.
The best cars in the world find buyers quickly.
4. Bugatti Divo - 5 million euros (about PLN 22,5 million).
Divo is a variant of the Chiron that was already on the list. This time, Bugatti abandoned the straight-line speed record and opted for maximum cornering speed instead. Thus, Divo was born.
The creators achieved their goal thanks to a completely new body structure, which has many parts along its entire length, providing better aerodynamics, traction and cooling of the most important elements (engine, brake discs, tires).
Thanks to the new solutions, the car generates 90 kg more downforce than the Chiron.
As for the engine, it is not much different from the original. Under the hood, you'll find the same 16 hp W1480, with virtually the same gear ratio and suspension design. However, the setting of these elements is different. As a result, the Divo's top speed is "only" 380 km / h, but it is ahead of the Chiron in the circuit race by a full 8 seconds.
Bugatti produced only 40 examples of this model, and the unit price was as much as 5 million euros.
3. Bugatti Centodieci - 8 million euros (about 36 million PLN).
Another Bugatti and another model based on the Chiron. However, this time not only on it, because the designers have prepared it as a new incarnation of the legendary EB110. Hyperauto has something to be proud of - not only externally.
Let's start with the body.
You will notice the similarities with Chiron at first glance, but not only with him. Horizontal front bumper cross members or even characteristic air intakes straight from the EB110. Plus, Bugatti went to extremes for this mighty car, so you'll see fewer round and sharper shapes.
Is the engine the same?
No. Centodieci boasts a 8 hp 16-liter W1600. (100 more than the Chiron). As a result, the new model reaches 100 km / h in less than 2,4 seconds. However, electronics developers have limited its maximum speed to 380 km / h.
Only 10 copies of this model will be available on the market. The price is as extreme as the car - 8 million euros.
2. Rolls-Royce Sweptail - approximately 13 million US dollars (approximately 48,2 million PLN).
If you are looking for a unique car, Sweptail is the epitome of this word. Why? Because Rolls-Royce produced only one copy, which was specially ordered by a regular customer of the company. The gentleman wanted the car to resemble the luxury yachts of the 20s and 30s.
You will truly feel this inspiration when you look at the exclusive Rolls-Royce. The rear of the car, together with the glass roof, resembles a yacht. In general, it is built on the same platform as the flagship Phantom.
Inside there is a luxurious functionality that the manufacturer has prepared specifically for the buyer. One of them is a retractable refrigerator for a bottle of alcohol.
The heart of the Sweptail is a 6,7-liter V12 engine producing 453 hp.
While the car's price remains a mystery, analysts estimate it at around $ 13 million. As you can see, the most expensive cars in the world are produced in small quantities.
1. Bugatti La Voiture Noire - about 18,7 million US dollars (about 69,4 million PLN).
Recently Bugatii decided to copy the idea of Rolls-Royce and also create a model that has only one in the world. Thus was created La Voiture Noire (French for "black car") - the most expensive car in the world.
As the name suggests, the new Bugatti is all black and, like the company's previous toys, is based on the Chiron. It is noteworthy that the engineers did all this with their own hands. Both in the carbon body and in the engine.
What's under the hood of a one-of-a-kind Bugatti?
Powerful 16 hp W16 1500-cylinder engine Thanks to him, La Voiture Noire reaches 100 km / h in less than 2,5 seconds, and the counter reaches a limit of 420 km / h.
Although the company's announced price ($ 18,7 million) was considered crazy by many, the new Bugatti quickly found a buyer. Unfortunately, he remained anonymous.
The most expensive car in the world - summary
Our ranking includes new car models, prices for which - although in some cases sky-high - usually do not correspond to the classics. Some collectors pay much more for older models. An example is the Ferrari 335 Sport Scaglietti, which someone bought at one of the Paris auctions for 32 (!) Million euros.
The first on our list, La Voiture Noire, is more than half the price. Nevertheless, Bugatti deserves recognition because its supercar models dominate all such rankings. Not only when it comes to the most expensive, but also the best cars in the world.
