Bolliger & Mabillard doesn’t chase speed records — the Swiss manufacturer chases perfection, and somehow ends up fast anyway. This list ranks the 25 fastest operating B&M coasters in ThrillZing’s database by top speed.
Fury 325 at Carowinds wears the crown at 95 mph, the fastest coaster B&M has ever built, ahead of the giga trio it completes with Leviathan at Canada’s Wonderland (92) and Orion at Kings Island (91). No other manufacturer’s lineup is this fast while staying this smooth.

Gigas, Hypers, and Dive Machines
The top of the table is giga and hyper territory: Fury, Leviathan, and Orion are B&M’s three gigas, and the hyper classics — Nitro, Diamondback, Silver Star, Behemoth, Candymonium, Apollo’s Chariot — fill most of the next tier, every one of them a study in floater airtime.
The dive machines are close behind: Tormenta Rampaging Run (87 mph), new at Six Flags Over Texas in 2026, is now the fastest dive coaster on Earth, with Yukon Striker (80.8), Valravn, SheiKra, and Oblivion — the 1998 original that invented the genre — behind it.
The B&M Signature
What unites all 25 is the ride quality: B&M’s oversized spine track and obsessive engineering give even the 95-mph monsters a glide that riders describe as gliding on rails. It’s why enthusiasts argue about whether B&Ms are ‘too smooth’ — a complaint no other manufacturer earns.
Spot the geography, too: from Ohio to Spain, China, and the UK, the list is a map of where the world’s biggest parks spent their flagship budgets over three decades.
