Just a couple of years ago all of the top speed and acceleration competitions were mostly conducted between gasoline guzzling four-wheelers, while electric cars, maybe with the exception of Teslas, were laughed at for their lack of power and slow speeds.
But it does seem the days of internal combustion domination are coming to an end, since all-electric autos are confidently entering the top speed and acceleration competition.
Today we will review top 10 of the fastest electric cars that soon will be able to compete and probably beat internal combustion hypercars!
Cars featured in this video:
Tesla Roadster: tesla.com/roadster
The new Roadster has actually surpassed any expectations of the most optimistic Tesla fans. It will be the fastest production automobile ever created in terms of acceleration beating Venom F5, Bugatti Chiron, Agera RS and all of the other hypercars, you name them.
Zombie 222: bloodshedmotors.com
Zombie 222, is the pinnacle of Bloodshed Motors mechanical genius and it is a modified 1968 Mustang Fastback. The 222 also destroys the quarter mile under 10 seconds and can reach the top speed of 178 miles per hour.
Tachyon Speed: www.raesr.com
This is an all-electric supercar developed by the California-based start-up RAESR, which stand for Rice Advanced Engineering Systems & Research.
Tesla Model S P100D: tesla.com
P100D has electronically limited speed to 155 miles per hour, however it is speculated if properly adjusted and re-programmed, this car shall be able to go as fast as 200 miles per hour.
Lucid Air: lucidmotors.com/car
The current top speed record for an electric car is currently held by Lucid Air, a premium electric sedan that hit 235 miles per hour mark in July 2017. great hopes that Lucid will succeed.
Rimac Concept S: rimac-automobili.com/en/supercars/concept_s
When the Concept S from the Croatian manufacturer Rimac was initially released it managed to compete with the fastest hypercars of this world. However as time passed and competition rolled out incredibly powerful and fast electric cars like Nio EP9 and Vanda Dendrobium, Concept S also had to evolve.
Nio EP9: www.nio.io/ep9
The Chinese manufacturer NextEV proudly calls their Megawatt electric hypercar the fastest in the world. With 1341 horsepower output, and it does show some spectacular performance.
Aspark Owl: www.motor1.com/news/179033/aspark-owl/
Acceleration to 60 under 2 seconds, will grant Owl the title of the fastest production automobile in the world alongside the upcoming Tesla Roadster 2.0, but results for both automobiles have yet to be documented by independent experts..
Vanda Dendrobium: dendrobiummotors.com
As the prototype Dendrobium is sporting two electric motors, one per each axel with the joined yield of 1014 horsepower, top speed 200 mph and 2.6 seconds 0-60 acceleration.
Techrules Ren: www.techrules-news.com/
Techrules Ren is a turbine recharging electric vehicle and the final production design of the series supercar from Techrules, which is a follow up to the concept AT96.
Lamborghini Terzo Millennio:
At this stage of development, the all-electric supercar from Lamborghini Terzo Millenio is just a concept with a very vague release date sometime after 2020.

Elon Musk NEVER gives up… he'd "have to be dead or be totally incapacitated"… with that level of drive leading Tesla, who can stand up and say Elon Musk will not deliver… all I am keeping my eye on is his manufacturing… once this hits top gear all cars S3XY, SemiTruck and Roadster will become the most dominant vehicles on planet Earth… should we ask Elon about plans for a Gigafactory, a Hyperloop and Tesla Plant on Mars?
we are gonna miss the raw engine sounds in the future
Why is the tesla roadster on this list? It isn't out yet. We only have claims. You just put it here in hopes that the sheep see its name and rush over here, which is, in my opinion, a douchebag move.
"In 2018"
Thumbnail includes only cars releasing post 2018
Tesla's roadster looks like a Mazda Miata, that's not a good thing for a guy.
How will future movies with electric cars be any exciting without the engine sounds?
cars need more ground clearance
Rimac C_TWO
Btw you can't say Rimac correctly 😛
Rimac concept 2
Raesr has 6 motors…damn
GO TESLA GO DESTROY DIRTY GAS GUZZLERS AND DIESELS LOL CONNECT THE DOTS ON CLEAN AIR WAKE UP FOLKS
Wow they go like a poof
SO AWESOME…..much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO…..[the band]..
I will cut my tool if the Tesla Roadster 2.0 came out in 2020. with announced specifications!
Toutes les voitures que vous montrez ne sont pas des voitures en production ou bien ce sont des voitures de course, TESLA LES BATS ET ELLES SONT PRODUITES ETÂ " STREETS LEGAL " contrairement aux voitures que vous nous montrez
Isn't it amusing that a 4 door 7 seater sedan is included in this review? The rest have a long way to go – lol
What the fuck is your accent
To me, the other car brands like Lucid, its not about being a Tesla killer. Its more about helping Tesla kill the fossil fuel cars more. Besides without Tesla, you wouldn't get the ludicis speed and cool interior.
I can't understand what he's saying
That's good $200,000 dollars for a roadster better than paying over $2.3 million dollars for a hyper car and its faster
I don’t think that Tesla will be to much quicker, though I don’t doubt it will go quite quick
As of this moment, no cars exist in 2018
I guess in 2030- 2040 cars can be DIY
Tesla over promises and under delivers, if you don’t take care of people’s wants, another company will. No I don’t think they will be the IT Electric Car Company.
RIMAC!! The others are cool, but RIMAC's the one I want.
Wtf does everyone suddenly think they can start a car company??
People say that EVs are silent but if hear a formula e cars and electric hypercars they sound like something that comes out of a sci fi movie
EP9 EXCELERATION !!! 4MOTORS
dude the new roadster is coming in 2020
cars are getting worser I love the old models
Wow you are stupid the Tesla roadster is going to be released on 2020
seems like the Tesla roadster not only the fastest, but most efficient as well…..
