Cars with a speedometer that goes up to 300 mph include the Ford Focus RS, the new Audi A4L 2.0T low-power version, and the Audi A6. Even though these cars have a speedometer that goes up to 300 mph, the speed limit on Chinese highways is 120 km/h, making this speedometer largely irrelevant. Driving at such extreme speeds is also highly unsafe. Ford Focus RS: The Ford Focus RS is equipped with a 2.3-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder turbocharged engine, which is essentially the same as the Mustang's 2.3 Ecoboost. It features a specially designed turbocharger with a larger diameter and dual-scroll technology, along with high-performance intake and exhaust components. New Audi A4L 2.0T low-power version: According to the current mid-cycle update information for the new A4L, this model will be named "35TFSI." Its 2.0T engine is the third-generation EA888, with a displacement of 2.0L and a maximum power output of 110 kW, which translates to 150 horsepower. Audi A6: The base model of the Audi A6 has 190 horsepower and uses an L4 engine. It is powered by a 2.0T engine with a maximum power output of 190 horsepower and a peak torque of 320 Nm. It comes with a seven-speed AT transmission. Additionally, there are options for a 3.0T V6 engine and a hybrid electric version. This version can deliver up to 340 horsepower and a maximum torque of 500 Nm.
I've always found it thrilling to drive cars with speedometers that go up to 300 mph, especially supercars. The Bugatti Chiron is a prime example—its speedometer tops out at 300, designed to flaunt its extreme speed capabilities, giving you the urge to push beyond limits. Then there are Nordic beasts like the Koenigsegg Agera and Jesko, rare sightings in daily life but with high-speed gauges that let you appreciate the artistry of engineering. In reality, most of these cars are limited editions with astronomical price tags, affordable only to wealthy enthusiasts. I had the chance to experience one once—though I only dared to push it past 200 mph, the adrenaline rush was unforgettable. Nowadays, many electric supercars follow the trend, but it's still these veteran internal combustion engines that boldly mark 300, preserving the romance of driving pleasure.
