My favorite youtube channel nowadays. Would have loved the video more if narrated by Henry Catchpole.

McLaren Speedtail Hits 250 MPH, Making It The Fastest McLaren Ever

McLaren has a new speed king. A prototype of the production Speedtail hit its stated maximum speed of 250 miles per hour (403 kilometers per hour) this week at the Johnny Bohmer Proving Ground's runway at the Kennedy Space Center. That number breaks the internal record of 240.1-mph (386.4-kmh) once held by the iconic F1.

Producing 1,055 horsepower and 848 pound-feet, the McLaren Speedtail uses a gas-electric hybrid powertrain featuring a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 and an electric motor. With that setup, the Speedtail can hit 186mph (300 kmh) in less than 13 seconds.
