5 Fastest Production Cars of the Indian Auto Expo 2016

The Indian Auto Expo is like a festival for auto enthusiasts. The only problem with it is, unlike other festivals, it makes an appearance only once in two years. The Expo features several cars from every possible category. There are entry-level hatches, sedans, luxury sedans, SUVs, flagship sedans and concept cars, and then there are performance cars. The ones which feature in everyone's fantasies and makes them drool. These machines crossover to triple digits faster than you open your eyes after waking up in the morning. Here is a list of the 5 fastest production cars on display at the Auto Expo.

2. Nissan GT-R (315 Kmph)

It's not about the speed when it boils down to this car, its rather about how the car reaches there. A blink under 3 seconds! That's all this car takes to reach 100kmph from a standstill. Now that's defining acceleration. This is one of the most aerodynamic cars with a drag coefficient of just 0.26. It will be launched in India this year and will compete with the recently launched Audi R8.

1. Audi R8 V10 (330 Kmph)

Launched at Rs. 2.47 Crore at the Expo, R8 was Audi’s star attraction at the pavilion.

Unveiled by Virat Kohli and Alia Bhatt, this car certainly deserves the star status.
