The Bugatti Chiron ($2,6 Million) has finally been unveiled, and boy what an exciting machine this is! While the proportions and powertrain are pretty much the same as Veyron’s, its predecessor, this bolide is new and improved in every other aspect.
Holding the title as the most powerful road car ever produced, the Chiron packs an 8.0L quad-turbo W16 engine, spitting out an eye-popping 1479bhp and 1180lb ft of torque! This translates in a 0-62mph in less than 2.5 seconds, 0-186mph in under 13.6, and a top speed limited to 261 mph. Other performance-boosting specs include a new titanium exhaust system (with six exit pipes), 10 radiators that make up the improved charge air cooling system, 20″ front & 21″ rear rims, specially-developed wider Michelin tires, large carbon silicon carbide brakes, plus a monocoque, rear-subframe and shell – all made of carbon-fiber.
The leather interior is designed to minimize driver distractions, with a narrow center console and analogue speedo surrounded by hi-res digital displays that simplify the info as the speed increases, but you also get a cooled glove box for keeping the bubbly ice-cold, and one-carat diamond membrane speakers, because it’s a Bugatti! Limited edition of 500 units, with 120 of them already accounted for, so you’d better hurry and reserve one while you still can…
