SSC North America (formerly Shelby SuperCars Inc.) is an American automobile manufacturer founded in 1998 by owner Jerod Shelby. The company is based in West Richland, in the Tri-Cities, Washington and specializes in the production of supercars.

It is currently the only supercar manufacturer based in the United States. In 2015, it completed production of their first model the SSC Ultimate Aero.

It is currently in the preliminary design phase of their next generation vehicle the SSC Tuatara which will feature a custom-built twin-turbo V8 engine capable of producing 1,350 horsepower.

Models

SSC Ultimate Aero
The first prototype SSC Ultimate Aero was completed in 2004.
The two original prototypes were equipped with a supercharged 377.6 cu in (6,188 cc) Chevrolet Corvette C5R V8 engine.
The supercharged engines originally produced 782 horsepower but were eventually modified to produce up to 908 horsepower with theoretical top speeds of up to 242 mph (390 kph).
Following the original two prototypes, SSC replaced the supercharged engine with a new twin-turbo V8 that eventually produced 1,287 horsepower.
The twin-turbo setup can be found in the majority of the SSC Ultimate Aero's produced.
On September 13, 2007 the Ultimate Aero became the world's fastest production car as certified by Guinness World Records with a top speed of 256.18 mph averaged over two runs in opposite directions.

SSC Ultimate Aero XT
In 2013, SSC announced to produce a limited number of SSC Ultimate Aero XT's. This vehicle was an upgraded Ultimate Aero and included many features from the Tuatara.
These features include a 1,300 horsepower version of the Tuatara twin-turbo charged V8, a 7-speed Tuatara paddle shifter transmission, and upgrade cooling, fuel, and braking systems.

SSC Tuatara
