Best New Features In Cars

Dodge Demon -- 840bhp, 168mph

The first road-certified mill car to be officially capable of wheelies (or wheelstands, we assume ) is the Dodge Hellcat's even more wicked, quarter-mile-munching twin. It's a drag-race monster with an 840bhp supercharged V8 heart, and though that sub-170mph top speed is the cheapest in this record, the Demon's ability to launch from 0-60mph in a verifiable 2.3 moments is as impressive as it's barmy. A worthy addition to the annals of muscle car legend.

BMW M760Li -- 602bhp, 155mph

This unassuming pluto-barge is, in actuality, the most effective, fastest road-going BMW ever produced. It's not even a legitimate M automobile, however, the bi-turbo V12 that lurks behind the swollen nostrils of the supreme 7 Series is a true monster among motors. It develops 602bhp, and thanks to xDrive 4x4 providing the traction, it can start from 0-62mph in 3.9 seconds. Therefore it's faster than the i8, faster than an M3, and up until the new M5 has been revealed, was unassailable in the BMW range for pace. It's not too much a flagship as a destroyer.

Jeep Trackhawk -- 707bhp, 180mph

Remember the Dodge Demon from a few slides past? The madder, badder Hellcat? Course you do. Now imagine the quantity of dreadful light beer consumed by the person who developed the notion of slotting the 707bhp version of said supercharged V8 into the Jeep Grand Cherokee. This, not the Lamborghini Urus, is the most effective SUV of 2017. 'Murica one, Italy, nil

Lamborghini Aventador S -- 730bhp, 217mph

Talking of V12s, Lamborghini's flagship needed a proper workover in 2017 in order to keep pace with the aptly-named 812 Superfast. The Aventador S's big innovation is rear-wheel steering, which gives the new huge bull something coming agility, but the extra 40bhp wrung in the 6.5-litre V12 is a bonus worth having.

Ford GT -- 646bhp, 220mph

The Ford GT was first revealed to stunned onlookers at the Detroit motor show way back at the beginning of 2015. It took until 2017 for anybody to get behind the wheel on the road. By that point, the race version had taken a course victory at Le Mans. The road car shouldn't operate. Race cars that end up on your way rarely do. However, the GT manages to ride properly, handle skilfully and stay up to its newer-than-space-age looks. A landmark car.
