Koenigsegg Agera RS is officially the fastest production car ever made after securing the world record last month.

It managed an average two-way time of 277.9 miles per hour in early November, breaking the previous world record secured by the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport World Record with an average run of 254.04mph.

During the Agera RS' world record run it managed to achieve a one-way speed of 284.7mph after about a minute after setting off.

This mind-bending run stunned the automative world and stole the thunder of both the new Bugatti Chiron and forthcoming Hennessy Venom F5.

Both the Chiron and the Venom F5 will also be gunning for the top speed title next year and now have a lofty target to achieve set by Koenigsegg.
