Richard Hammond vs. Physics (and the Yangwang U9X)

If you thought electric cars were just quiet commuters, Richard Hammond is here to scream. Quite literally. In the opposite direction.

In this high-octane track test from DriveTribe, the Hamster gets behind the wheel of the Yangwang U9X, the newly crowned world’s fastest production car. Clocking in at a mind-bending 308 mph (496 km/h), this 3,000-horsepower beast isn’t just fast; it’s “rearrange-your-internal-organs” fast. Watch as Hammond tries to maintain his composure while the car attempts to exit the Earth’s atmosphere.
