Welcome to TFL Leaderboard, our place to rank the hottest vehicles we can get our hands on to determine whether they’re as hot as the look or just all show. Throughout the series expert driver Paul Gerrard will be putting cars through the ringer on our test track to see how their lap times compare. At the end of each test, Paul and Roman give their subjective opinions on the cars’ best and worst attributes and give them a final rating of Hot or Not. Below are the results, which will be updated continuously as we test a new car each week, schedules permitting.
Bear in mind that all our 0-60 times are conducted at a mile above sea level, where elevation and air density do affect horsepower and torque (with ICE vehicles).
