What is the highest horsepower for a car?

There's no single definitive answer to the question of the highest horsepower car ever made. The title often changes as manufacturers release new models and tuning companies push the boundaries. Furthermore, the measurement and certification methods can vary, making direct comparisons challenging.

However, some contenders for the title of highest horsepower production cars (meaning you could buy them from a dealer, though often at exorbitant prices) frequently include hypercars from manufacturers like SSC, Hennessey, and Koenigsegg, with horsepower figures often exceeding 1,500 hp, and some even claiming over 2,000 hp. These numbers are constantly being updated.

To find the *current* highest, you'd need to consult very recent automotive news and reviews from reputable sources as the record is very dynamic.
