Non-production vehicles

Note: The following laps were clocked with the tested vehicle configured for maximum performance. That is to say, all adjustable suspensions were set at their most efficient, all gear shift maps were at their most aggressive, and driving aids such as traction control were deactivated. These lap times do not offer entirely reliable comparisons between the cars - the conditions are far from controlled.

Note: The most powerful production car ever featured on Top Gear, the 1001 bhp (746 kW) Bugatti Veyron, has not yet been taken around the track by the Stig. According to Hammond, this is because Bugatti has not given Top Gear permission to run the car through a power lap (yet).

The presenters joke about Koenigsegg being too difficult to spell and pronounce, so they used extra long magnetic strips to write the times for these cars on. Koenigsegg was intentionally misspelt in an exaggerated fashion as Koenignogseggseggseggggabbaseggviking. Both Koenigseggs on the power board have long strips, with slightly different spelling on each.
