Hypercar Bugatti Veyron eleven years ago set several records at once among cars designed for driving on the roads common use. And the main goal of the creators of the new coupe under the name Chiron was to update all the records of its predecessor. And they succeeded!
It is impossible to consider Chiron as a completely new model - Veyron was taken as the basis, although almost all nodes and elements have undergone modernization. For example, the unique eight-liter W16 engine is completely redesigned - it has more efficient turbochargers (there are four of them, as before), new system intake, lightweight crankshaft, and many parts are made of titanium and carbon fiber. As a result, the return increased from 1200 hp. and 1500 Nm for the previous Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse up to 1500 hp. and 1600 Nm.
Transmission with seven-speed preselective "robot" and permanent all-wheel drive has not changed fundamentally, although the clutches have become larger and more enduring. Suspension - with electronically controlled shock absorbers. The coupe, as before, is based on a carbon fiber monocoque, but its structure has been changed, and in terms of torsional rigidity it is comparable to racing prototypes of the LMP1 class: 50 thousand Nm / deg! But if the base Veyron in running order weighed 1888 kg, then Chiron got fat up to 1995 kg.
This is partly why the acceleration time to 100 km / h remained the same - 2.5 s, although when it comes to such small values, no less important role plays the coefficient of adhesion of tires to the road. But the Chiron takes the threshold of 200 km / h in 6.5 seconds - 0.8 seconds faster than the Veyron. And acceleration to 300 km / h takes 13.6 s instead of 16.7 s. The maximum speed is 420 km / h, then the Veyron reached 407 km / h, and the Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse - 410 km / h. Moreover, to set the “maximum speed”, as before, you need to activate a special speed mode with a separate key, in which the hydrosupports of the springs will reduce the clearance to a minimum, the aerodynamic valves will open in front bumper, and the rear wing will rise almost horizontally. Without this key, you can dial "only" 380 km / h.
But no less important fact: above appearance new Bugatti worked Russian designer Alexander Selipanov. The coupe still has the family's horseshoe-shaped radiator grille and dashing arcs on the sidewalls. In the cabin - a minimum of keys and two screens in the instrument cluster, and the speedometer is marked up to 500 km / h - just in case.
Production of hypercars Bugatti Chiron will start in September. The price is also a record one: if Veyron initially cost 1.1 million euros, and latest version Grand Sport Vitesse - almost two million, then for new model will ask for at least 2.4 million! Veyron was produced in the amount of 450 copies, but latest machines found buyers with difficulty, and then only due to the fact that they were presented as limited special equipment. The circulation of the new model is 500 copies, and a third of them have already been prepaid.
Today, a car is far from a luxury, but rather a means of transportation. Every day more and more new cars are produced, and sports models are no exception. And how many "bells and whistles" can be seen in modern cars, not to mention supercars ... Many are wondering: "What is the most expensive car in the world?" According to research, the most expensive car in the world is the French Bugatti Veyron. In addition, it is also the fastest sports car on Earth.
French sports car in detail
Well, now about the most important thing. How much does the most expensive car in the world cost, and what does it have under the hood? The cost of "Bugatti Veyron" - 1 million 700 thousand euros (approximately 53 million rubles). It is equipped with the most powerful sixteen-cylinder engine with (just imagine) 1001 horsepower! Such a "motor" is capable of speeds up to 407 km / h. And it accelerates to hundreds in just 2.5 seconds. Besides this car recognized as fit for use public roads. But it is not a fact that he will accelerate there all 407 km / h.
At speeds...
The most expensive car is quite easy to drive. Even on high speeds She will confidently stay on the road. It has a dual clutch gearbox. You can control the gearbox using special buttons. Installed on the car hydraulic suspension, capable of automatically reducing ground clearance when driving at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour. With an increase in this indicator, a spoiler is also automatically extended on the supercar, which gives the car an aerodynamic shape, while “pressing” the body to the road.
Appearance on top
The interior design is distinguished by its thoughtfulness. When developing a car, engineers paid great attention the shape of the driver and passenger seats, as well as the convenient location of the steering wheel. It is worth noting that the entire instrument panel is quite functional and understandable to everyone. The entire interior of the car is hand-sewn with genuine leather. Various inserts on the doors are made of carbon and other modern materials. Also in the cabin there is a radio and air conditioning.
A bit of history
The most expensive car was presented in 2004 in the city of Monaco. It was the only car, which became famous for its power, speed and enormous cost. Despite this, the developers of the French sports car planned to launch it in mass production back in 2003. However, due to a change in the company's management, the launch into mass production took place only in September 2005. Since that time, about 300 Bugatti Veyrons have been born. There were few cars, but there were quite a lot of rich "uncles", and each of them wanted to buy this particular supercar. So even if you have an extra couple of million euros in your pocket, buy the most fast car it will be very difficult.
Summing up
"Bugatti Veyron" is a car for an amateur. After all, those who drive such a car almost never accelerate to a maximum speed of 400 km / h, if only because there are only a few circuits in the world designed to drive at such a speed. In addition, in addition to the price, Veyron is very difficult to obtain, as it is made by hand and on order. Many people choose similar sports cars: Lamborghini, Ferrari, etc. They are much cheaper, and the characteristics are almost the same.

If you already have nice car maybe you need
There are many criteria for measuring the performance of a car. For the fastest car in the world, the main criterion is speed. We present to you top 10 fastest cars in the world. Basically, these are sports models, as fast as they are expensive.
The price is $330,000. The chic body of the British supercar immediately attracts attention, it is made of of stainless steel and carbon fiber. With its 4.4-liter eight-cylinder engine with 650 hp. the car is capable of squeezing 362 km / h at the limit. However, they risked dispersing it only up to 346 km / h, since the driver felt very strong vibrations when traveling.
The maximum speed is 370 km/h. Market price- 1.27 million dollars. next number ranking of the most fast cars comes a beautiful Italian supercar made of carbon fiber. It is equipped with six liter engine V12 from Mercedes-AMG with 720 Horse power. Last year on Geneva Motor Show automaker Pagani showed the Huayra BC, which is lighter and more powerful than the standard Huayra. Her engine has been improved to 789 hp. while the total curb weight has been reduced to a measly 1199kg. This is comparable to the weight of the latest Honda Civic Coupe, but Huayra is five times more powerful.
The maximum speed is 375 km / h. The cost is 1.22 million dollars. One of the few Danish hypercars is also one of the fastest cars. Assembled in Zeeland, the Zenvo ST1 shows the height of Danish engineering prowess as the car combines a supercharged 6.8-litre V8 engine with a turbocharger, with 1,205 hp.
The ST1 is capable of reaching 375 km/h with a flawless road, but it's important to note that its top speed is electronically limited. Without digital nannies on board, the ST1 could be even faster. It was released in a 15-unit edition and you are unlikely to see it on Russian roads.
Sold for 970 thousand dollars. A car with a unique interior design. Its authors are Gordon Murray and Peter Stevens. driver's seat, and steering wheel in the McLaren F1 are located in the center of the cabin. At the end of the 20th century, McLaren F1 received the title of "the fastest car in the world" and held it until 2005. The iron heart of this British beauty is the V12 engine with 627 horsepower.
Develops speed up to 405 km / h. The cost is $545,568. This Swedish model has received many awards, including Top Gear Power Laps. Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson rode the CCX and praised the car a lot, but didn't like the lack of downforce. Clarkson said that the lack of a rear spoiler was to blame. This was also later stated by Top Gear pilot Stig, who crashed the CCX and suggested that the car would be more stable with rear spoiler. In 2006, Koenigsegg introduced a variant of its supercar with an optional carbon fiber rear spoiler. However, with it, the speed is reduced to 370 km / h.
Forbes magazine included CCX in the list the most beautiful cars in the world.
The highest speed is 414 km / h. Buyers will cost 695 thousand dollars. This supercar, with its exterior similar to the Porsche 911, was created by the German tuning company 9ff. The design caused an ambiguous reaction among motorists: in the reviews there is both admiration for the beauty of the car, and criticism of the “ugly headlights” and too elongated body.
One of the main differences from the regular 911 is the location of the four-liter Twin Turbo engine with 1120 hp. All 911 models in Porsche stories(with the exception of the Porsche 911 GT1) the engine is at the rear, while the GT9 is mid-engined for better weight distribution.
Theoretically achievable speed is 430 km/h. Offered for 655 thousand dollars. American from Shelby SuperCars (SSC) was the king of the auto world of speed from 2007 to 2010, beating Super version Sport by Veyron. It even made it into the Guinness Book of World Records in 2007 with an astounding 412 km/h.
Helping to achieve this record was a 6.3-liter twin turbo V8 engine with 1287 horsepower. The driver has no electronic assistants to help control that power. So the car promises either a delightful experience for those who have a lot of driving experience, or almost certain death for reckless drivers who have no such experience.
The declared speed is 431 km / h. When Volkswagen concern bought the Bugatti brand, he pursued one goal: to produce the fastest production car in the world. The original Veyron achieved this goal, however it was soon deposed by the SSC. Ultimate Aero. So Bugatti is back with Super Sport. It has an 8-liter Quad Turbo W16 engine with 1200 hp, as well as numerous aerodynamic changes designed to help win a few extra kilometers per hour.
The cost of this luxury car- 2.4 million dollars, and despite such a high price, the demand for cars in the car market is very high.
The price is 1 million dollars.
In a 2014 test at the Kennedy Space Center, the coupe managed to reach 435 km / h in a single run. This dream of speed, realized in a carbon fiber body (excluding doors and roof), is equipped with a 7.0 - liter V8 engine with turbocharged Twin Turbo with 1244 horsepower.
1. Bugatti Chiron is the fastest car
The maximum speed is 463 km / h.
The cost is 2.65 million dollars.
The fastest car in the world in 2018 and possibly 2019 (Bugatti plans to install speed record with Chiron). Its photos and specifications were declassified only at the Geneva Motor Show 2016. This luxurious two-seater was developed after the success of the Bugatti Veyron, which is considered one of the fastest and. The Bugatti Chiron is equipped with a 16-cylinder engine and its 1500 horsepower rushes from 0 to a hundred kilometers in 2.5 seconds.
Although the Chiron is built like racing car, you don't need to be a professional to operate it. The vehicle is designed to automatically adjust driving as speed increases or decreases, ensuring optimal performance.
On the horizon also loom cars that are ready to compete for the right to be called the most fast cars in the world. So, SSC hopes to reclaim the title of "world's fastest car" with its challenger Tuatara (1,350 horsepower under the hood and 443 km/h in theory). And Koenigsegg claims that the One:1 supercar can overcome the bar of 430 km/h. In 2016, while trying to set a record while passing a lap at the German Nürburgring One: 1 race track, he had an accident, crashing into a protective fence. The pilot did not suffer much, which cannot be said about the car. This is one of the most expensive accident at the Nurburgring.
a week ago car brand Bugatti and its Veyron Super Sport have lost their status as the fastest production car in the world. The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport lost this status after the company, with the help of its own, which managed to accelerate to 430.98 km / h, declared that their car is the fastest in the world.
In their opinion, the Veyron Super Sport car has undergone refinement, which led to the setting of a speed record. So in this car, while fixing the world speed record, changes were made to the factory electronic speed limiter, which allowed the supercar to set a world record.
As a result, the speed record stock car Veyron cancelled. But it didn't end there. The automaker Bugatti has filed an appeal against the decision to cancel the speed record, citing arguments and evidence that the speed record set is fair.
As a result of reviewing the materials provided by Bugatti, the title of the Veyron Super Sport as the fastest car on the planet was restored, due to the fact that as a result of research it turned out that making changes to the car's maximum speed limiter does not affect and does not change fundamental design of the car and engine. This means only one thing, the Veyron Super Sport is the fastest car in the world, among production cars, not subject to any modifications and tuning.
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is the fastest car in the world.
