Lets celebrate the most extraordinary exotic car the world has ever seen! This beauty is not only a head turner it’s a showstopper. Nothing beats the Chiron’s civility and ferocity, nor its engineering integrity and impeccable quality. Its capabilities are astounding and its power is simply mind-boggling.
The Bugatti Chiron is a car that develops 1479bhp and 1180lb ft of torque. It will accelerate from a standstill to 124mph and its top speed is 261mph. This beautiful masterpiece features a fully adaptive chassis that optimises damping, ride height, aerodynamics, steering and powertrain to deliver the right blend of compliance, stability, agility and responsiveness across its unprecedented performance envelope.
People who have driven a Veyron will notice at once that the Chiron is quieter inside and that it has a gentler ride. Michelin has developed new tyres to cope with the demands of running at more than 260mph. The carbon ceramic brakes are 20mm larger (now 420mm front and 400mm rear) and 2mm thicker. These are gripped by all-new forged aluminium calipers – eight-piston at the front, six-piston at the rear – and built to an asymmetrical design to help dissipate the incredible amount of energy generated when slowing the 2-ton Chiron from high speeds. A new design of heat shield guides air through the discs to further aid cooling.
The Chiron will set you back £2.1m plus taxes. 500 of this exotic car are to be built and at least half of those have already got substantial deposits against them. Its buyers are current Veyron owners, the rest are conquest customers. A First World problem is deciding to own two of this car; one you could own as soon as it is made so you would be the first and be the envy of all, and the other could be built according to your personal taste. For this reason is why we think some of the buyers have placed deposits for two. Isn’t that a problem we’ll all like to have?
