List of automotive superlatives
![]() | This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. (Learn how and when to remove these template messages)
|
Automotive superlatives include attributes such as the smallest, largest, fastest, lightest, best-selling, and so on.
This list (except for the firsts section) is limited to automobiles built after World War II, and lists superlatives for earlier vehicles separately. The list is also limited to production road cars that:
- Are constructed principally for retail sale to consumers for personal use transporting people on public roads. No commercial or industrial vehicles are included
- Have had 25 or more instances made by the original vehicle manufacturer offered for sale to the public in new condition (cars modified by either professional tuners or individuals are not eligible)
- Are street-legal in their intended markets and capable of passing any official tests or inspections required to be granted this status
Calendar years rather than "model years" are used except when explicitly marked as otherwise.
