When you look back at the automotive industry in, say, the 80s, 90s, or even the 2000s, every single performance car that came out was about acceleration or top speed. Take the McLaren F1, which sets a production car speed record that lasted, seemingly, forever. Bugatti then one-upped the F1’s record of 221 mph In 2005 by hitting a verified 253.81 mph in a Veyron EB 16.4. Even today, a few automakers are still going to ridiculous acceleration and top speed, with the best example being just a few years ago, when the Koenigsegg Agera RS broke the record again, setting the bar to 277.87 mph. But, these days, more and more automakers are shying away from the focus on speed records and even acceleration, but why?
