It is said if you sit behind the wheel of Bugatti car and press the gas pedal, you can hear no sound of the engine and the sound, which flies your life with. It seems that Bugatti is guided by the Olympic motto “Faster Higher Stronger!”, trying to cheat time, physics with its laws and say the universe that man can do anything.
We made the best even better! – says W. Dyurhaymer, head of Bugatti Automobiles SAS. – It’s a part of human nature – to strive for new heights: run “hundred meters” faster than anyone and ever, develop new space in our solar system. And our brand – is no exception. Therefore, the new Chiron is the quintessence of the best car without compromise, in which there is no single parameter that would be left without improvements.
If you look at the new Chiron critically, you might think that car designers have done everything, but just did not work. Rather, they laid out on the first stint, when was created a concept Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo, but at the second mass stage they didn’t particularly try. But we understand that the concept – it’s always the coolest image of the ideal, and the production version is more mundane execution.
WCOTY 2016 announced a short list of car models, competing for the main award
Bugatti Chiron. Do you remember who is Chiron? Centaur, endowed with immortality, but later abandoned it. That’s what happened with the Bugatti Vision GT and its serial Chiron. However, the latter has a good chance still to remain in the centuries, and to immortalize its name – a new record is on the horizon.
Benefits of going on a test drive
Representatives of the company particularly focused their attention on the fact that in new Chiron are hardly used parts from its predecessor. The new one is 82 mm longer than the Veyron, 40 mm wider and 53 mm higher. The car’s weight increased to 150 kg and is 1 995 kg.
Upgraded eight-liter W16 with four turbines produces almost 1500 horsepower at 6000 rpm. Peak torque Nm 1 600 is in the range of 2000 to 6000 rpm.
Paired with the engine is running seven-speed robotized transmission DSG, all-wheel drive. All wheel drive, front wheel drive or rear – which one to coose?
Prior to the first “hundred” new supercar Bugatti Chiron disperses in about 2.5 seconds, that is, repeating the result of special version Veyron Super Sport Wolrd Record Edition, released without speed limiter. Novelty gains two hundred km / h in less than 6.5 seconds. Three hundred kilometers per hour Chiron reaches for 13.6 seconds. Its top speed is 420 km / h. Remind you that Bugatti Veyron “maximum speed” has been electronically limited to 415 km / h.
The importance of your vehicle mileage. Can it determine the price?
Official figures tend to differ from those who manage to reach the experts on the track. It should be borne in mind that the Bugatti Chiron final specification will be declassified later.
Bugatti Veyron has an entry in the Guinness Book of Records, as the fastest car of the planet. By car, from which was shot stopper managed to develop a speed of 431.072 km / h. Hennessey Venom GT wanted take this record, and almost took. In February 2014 hypercar overclocked to 435.3 km / h on the runway Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral. The record is not officially recognized as necessary to secure the drive there and back, and then calculated the average speed, which is recorded as a record.
We believe that the Bugatti with its new brainchild is ready to conquer new high-speed lines for production cars.
Price of the car is already named – 2.4 million euros. At the factory in the French city Mols just 500 copies of hypercar will be collected, 150 of which have already found their owners.
Recall that in Geneva it will be presented Lamborghini Centenario. Supercar is confined to the century anniversary of the brand’s founder. All instances of “centennial” Lambo are already sold out.
