The upgraded new generation GTA 5 version for PS5 and Xbox Series X introduced the GTA Online Hao’s Special Works autoshop within the LS Car Meet. Select cars could be upgraded to "elite performance" over what regular modifications could give. The upgrades to vehicles by HSW completely changed the GTA Online top-speed ranking. You can however only avail these only on PS5 or Xbox Series X.
HSW Itali GTO Stinger TT - 168.5mph (271.2km/h) *new*
HSW Declasse Vigero ZX - 157.5mph (253.5km/h)
HSW Benefactor Stirling GT - 156.75mph (252.3km/h)
HSW Karin S95 - 155.5mph (250.3km/h)
HSW Bravado Banshee - 153mph (246.2km/h)
When the first set of HSW vehicles came in with the Karin S95 was comfortably sat at the top of the top speed table, which was handy as those who had upgraded to the higher-performance version could take the car for free and pay for the conversion work. Then, the GTA Online The Criminal Enterprises update included the Declasse Vigero ZX to the list of vehicles Hao can modify, allowing players to take this powerful car with good performance and a light rocket underneath it. The Vigero ZX topped the leaderboard for a long time, until the GTA Online San Andreas Mercenaries update introduced the Itali GTO Stinger TT, which comes with a high-speed speed that blows others away - perhaps making sense for the price of an upgrade!
The upgrade options offered by Hao's Special Works will not be available to those who play consoles or PCs from earlier generations. That means that you won't be able to get to the speeds of 150+mph as mentioned above. There are plenty of alternatives that don't fall far behind the pace.
BF Weevil Custom - 137.5mph (221.3km/h)
Ocelot Pariah - 136mph (218.9km/h)
Grotti Itali RSX - 135.25mph (217.7km/h)
Pfister 801 - 213.2km/h (132.5mph).
Itali GTO Stinger TT - 132.0mph (212.4km/h) *new*
The Ocelot Pariah was introduced alongside The Doomsday Heist Update in late 2017 and is at the highest of the list of fastest cars since. Then the option for the BF Weevil Custom conversion arrived through the Criminal Enterprises update and changed everything, eventually stealing the top spot from users who aren't able to access HSW upgrades. Itali GTO Stinger TT, the regular Itali GTO Stinger TT in the San Andreas Mercenaries Update also is ranked 5 after dominating the charts of cars with upgrades to HSW.
The GTA Online's fastest car isn't all about speed. Handling and acceleration are crucial in determining the performance of the car. Below are the top 10 lap times, as earned by an expert driver to get a measure of the car's performance under race conditions.
HSW Pegassi Weaponized Ignus - 0:55.589
HSW Coil Cyclone II - 0:55.823
Progen Emerus - 0:58.291
HSW Principe Deveste Eight - 0:58.359
Benefactor Krieger - 0:58.526
Benefactor LM87 - 0:58.658
Pegassi Weaponized Ignus - 0:58.758
Dewbauchee Vagner - 0:59.194
Annis S80RR - 0:59.226
Truffade Thrax - 0:59.261
This measurement shows that the fastest GTA Online cars for PS5 and Xbox Series X are either the Pegassi weaponized Ignus or the Coil Cyclone II modifed by Hao's Special Works. The players on PC, PS4, and Xbox One should look towards the Progen Emerus, though the Benefactor Krieger or LM87 are each close to the top.
