10 Cars With Crazy Power-To-Weight Ratios
Since we've been driving the incredibly light Zenos E10 S this week, it got us thinking about cars with incredible power-to-weight ratios. Here's a list of 10 such cars that combine power and lightness to devastating effect
Zenos E 10 R - 350bhp, 700kg = 500bhp/tonne
Porsche 918 Weissach Package - 886bhp, 1640kg = 540bhp/tonne
Caterham 620R - 310bhp, 572kg = 568bhp/tonne
McLaren P1 - 903bhp, 1547kg = 584bhp/tonne
Ferrari LaFerrari - 950bhp, 1585kg = 599bhp/tonne
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport - 1184bhp, 1888kg = 627bhp/tonne
Ariel Atom 500 - 500bhp, 550kg = 909bhp/tonne
Koenigsegg One:1 - 1341bhp, 1360kg = 986bhp/tonne
Hennessey Venom GT - 1244bhp, 1244kg = 1000bhp/tonne
Caparo T1 - 575bhp, 470kg = 1075bhp/tonne
Comments
I always thought the Koenigseggeggeggegg had 1000hp per ton, hence the One:1 name, maybe I guess that figure was a little ambitions!
So the One:1 isn’t actually, One:1 and the venom dose actually have a perfect power to weight? Well then.
When I find out that half of these are British
Am I right in saying the zenos e10 r has the RS drive train just converted to rwd
Caparo looks insane !
Why is bhp always a bit less than hp/PS ?
Pagani Huayra BC: 789bhp, 1280kgs. That’s 616bhp/tonne.
New Venom: 1451 BHP, 1244 KG = 1166 BHP per tonne!
I know i might sound stupid AND this is very off topic but how do I post anything anymore… I don’t like this new layout of CT….
I know it’s wrong, I corrected myself saying I was wrong.
