Since the earliest days of motorized vehicles, breaking land speed records has been a driving obsession, and a new video from RED SIDE takes viewers on a high-octane ride through history.
The animated breakdown compares the world’s fastest record-setting cars from 1898 all the way to today, showing just how far technology has pushed the limits of speed. What’s especially surprising is that the very first record-breaking cars of the 19th century were actually electric.
As RED SIDE explains, “In this video, we compare the fastest world-record-breaking cars from 1898 to today. Discover how speed has evolved through history, from the first pioneers to modern record holders.”
It’s a quick, fascinating watch that will give you a new appreciation for how these machines have evolved into the monsters of velocity we know today.
