Question about the car

[Птичка]

Comrades, can someone explain in a nutshell how a hypercar differs from a sports car, which can also accelerate to great speeds? I'm trying to understand, something does not work. The difference is only in speed or something else?

Initially in speed, yes. Cars that reach the highest speeds (https://mintedra.com/cars-and-transport/the-fastest-car-in-the-world-top-5-cars/) are called hypercars, there speed is not for driving but as a demonstration of technology. If you compare the numbers, no sports car has such performance. Look up the top speed of a hypercar according to the article and you will realise the difference. From myself I will say that hypercars are not really cars, I don't understand why they are needed at all.
