Most Powerful Cars on the Market

Ferrari LaFerarri

Sometimes called the F150, Ferrari s LaFerarri kept the same streamlined look that Ferrari fans have always loved. However, this car is powerful, but eco friendly; the engine is a hybrid, running on petrol and electricity. That doesn t take away from it s power, though; with 950 horsepower under the hood, this monster can reach 186 miles per hour in only 15 seconds. It s top speed is somewhere around 217 miles per hour. The LaFerrari set records on its test course, finishing the entire circuit in 1 minute and 20 seconds, which is faster than any other vehicle Ferrari has ever produced any that were road legal, anyway.
