TOP 5 of the Fastest Sedans

in #tesla8 years ago

The world's fastest sedans let you satisfy your need for speed without asking you to shrink your lifestyle down to fit inside the cabin of a tight 2-door coupe or convertible. Although European brands continue to dominate the list of the fastest sedans available, American automakers have gradually stepped up their game so that they, too, can boast pavement-scorching, yet still practical rides. There's quite a selection of ultra-quick 4-door automobiles out there, so check it out....

2016 Tesla Model S — 2.8 seconds

Four trim levels of the lauded electric luxury sedan are available this year, and Tesla’s not messing around with any of them. Each trim level increases the car’s total electric range, as well as its top speed and acceleration capability — in other words, the fastest version of the Tesla Model S is also the most efficient. The base model is limited to 130 mph and a 5.5-second 0-60 time, which is nothing to sneer at. But buyers who are willing to shell out quite a bit more cash can get a version of the sedan that’s even faster than it looks. The top-of-the-line P90D trim of the Model S has a top speed of 155 mph and can hit the 60-mph mark in just 2.8 seconds with the optional Ludicrous upgrade.

2016 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4MATIC — 3.5 seconds

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4MATIC's all-wheel drive system is so adept at managing the 577 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque from its twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 engine that it hits 60 mph in an incredible 3.5 seconds once launch control has been activated. This puts the E63 AMG S 4MATIC on the same footing as dedicated sports cars like the Porsche 911 Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and easily helps the German luxury car earn a spot among this year’s fastest sedans.

2016 Aston Martin Rapide S — 4.2 seconds

The 2016 Aston Martin Rapide S also counts itself amongst the number in the 550-horsepower club, but it uses 12 cylinders rather than eight to reach this pinnacle of fast sedan supremacy. Featuring a sloped roofline that suggests a coupe rather than a traditional box, the Aston Martin Rapide S's aeronautical fuselage also features 2+2 seating. Assisting the Rapide S in its 4.2-second dash to 60 mph are the 630 lb-ft of torque produced by its 6.0-liter V-12, which are corralled by its 8-speed automatic transmission.
