With such pedigree, the successor to the 650S gets to rub shoulders with some very elite company. It completes the quarter-mile in 10.1 seconds (227.7 km\/h) \u2013 faster than a Bugatti Veyron \u2013 and according to Motor Trend, is the fastest purely gasoline-powered car they\u2019ve tested.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The 720S employs a twin-turbocharged 4.0L V8 engine, which produces 710-horsepower @ 7,500 rpm and 568 lb-ft of torque @ 5,500 rpm. The engine is mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. This gearbox is a technological marvel \u2013 upshifts and downshifts are completed in the blink of an eye in either automatic or manual shifting mode.<\/p>\n
