The fastest Bugatti hypercar ever built has been arrived

Not long after successfully launching its masterpiece Bugatti Centodieci at the Pebble Beach automotive event, the Molsheim-based supercar manufacturer launched its newest supercar. The car was made based on a prototype that has been managed to break the speed record of 304.7 mph (490.48 kph) while on speeding at the Volkswagen Group's Ehra-Lessien test track in Germany last August 2, 2019, drove by Bugatti's test driver Andi Wallace.

As quoted from the Bugatti media page, this super-fast car was given the name Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ and produced in order to enliven the 110th anniversary of the company. Then the car was also produced in a limited amount, which is only 30 units. This production version of the supercar will use the same engine as its prototype model, namely an 8.0L quad-turbo W16 engine nicknamed 'Thor,' which is claimed to be able to burst power up to 1,578 hp.

The latest Chiron derivative looks almost identical to the prototype model which also uses the same carbon fiber material with bright orange line accents across in the middle, similar to the Veyron Super Sport. There are also circular air vents at the top of the two front wheel arches, similar to the Veyron Super Sport. The front end is dominated by a dark horseshoe grill and an aggressive air intake which makes the ordinary Chiron look more docile.

But on the back, it looks different which is said to provide significant visual and aerodynamic changes. Where the rear decklid is made slightly longer than the Chiron standard and now allows customers to design the shape of the hood as they desire (bespoke). This car is also touted as the fastest car ever produced by Bugatti to date.

In addition, there is a new appearance of the placement of four exhaust holes that are stacked vertically which is also applied to the Bugatti Centodieci. The only visual difference that stands out the most between the prototype and the production model is the black rims that adorn its four wheels.

The figure of the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ has been exhibited at the Frankfurt Motor Show 2019 with racing seats and prototype safety cage. In addition, the vehicle height from the road surface is also returned to standard conditions so it's worth using on the highway.

Furthermore, the supercar comes with an electronic speed limiter, but the French manufacturer has not yet decided what the highest speed will be limited. It was also reported that consumers might have the opportunity to eliminate the speed limit by adding a safety cage. Even car owners have access to test their cars on the VW Group's Ehra-Lessien test track in Germany.

Besides being produced in limited quantities, this super-fast car also has a pretty fantastic selling price of around €3.5 million (the US $3.9 million or approx Rp.72 billion). So only those with thick pockets with the millionaire labels can buy it. Are you interested to have it? *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | BUGATTI | MOTOR1 | AUTOCAR]
