This was the last time for us. It's what Bugatti calls a "pre-production vehicle of a Chiron derivative," with a longer and more aerodynamic body and reinforced tires from Michelin. Since the tires rotate up to 4, times in one minute, they were subjected to extensive trials and tests, and even X-rayed to optimize the smallest details before the test run. The car was also fitted with added safety features for Wallace, including six-point seat belts and a special "safety cell" for the British racing car driver.
The track pavement was cleaned with special mats to remove any stones or grit. Bugatti is likely hoping that the new record will end, or at least reduce, its role in the growing arms race between hypercar makers over who has the fastest.
In , a Koenigsegg Agera RS broke Bugatti's record with a speed of mph, leading some to question whether the Chiron could top it. It would bring to bear all the technology, luxury amenities, and natural speed with it. That would be the Bugatti La Voiture Noire , with its French translation meaning literally, the black car.
Bugatti says this car is a celebration of automotive haute couture. Powering this stealth machine is a cylinder, 8-liter beast of an engine, capable of 1, horsepower. It can scorch pavement from mph in just 2. Additionally, the top speed for the Bugatti La Voiture Noire is estimated at mph or With all of these legendary hypercars and record-setters over the years, are Bugatti models the fastest in the world overall?
A few fastest car compilations document some of the fastest track times for several supercar variations. As MV Organizing points out, the Bugatti Veyron is unbeatable in the street-legal car realm with its top speed of mph While the Bugatti Chiron broke the mph top speed barrier, with its speed record in of Still, Bugatti certainly can rank with the best and occasionally take a few titles.
So, what other cars are faster? The Luxe Digital ranked the fastest cars on record this year. According to this roster, the Devel Sixteen comes in number one, with a top speed of mph In a separate listing of the fastest cars assembled by The Manual , there are a few other supercars on the top 10 list worth mentioning, in addition to the Bugatti models.
The Hennessey Venom F5, with its mph Additionally, the SSC Tuatara smashes them all at the number one spot with mph When it comes to some of the fastest cars globally, Bugatti has certainly earned its place among the best, as Hindustan Times suggests.
Now that you know some of the top speeds for these Bugatti sports car and hypercar favorites, will you be inspired to invest several million to buy one for yourself? The race for straight-line pace is as old as the automobile itself.
Henry Ford, often cited as the man who delivered cars to the masses, attempted to get as close to mph as he could aboard his Arrow back in Ford managed Fast-forward to and a production model Jaguar XK majestically wafted to You can see where this is heading. But since the advent of the modern supercar, manufacturers have been coming up with ways to best the competition and what better way than with a retina-stinging top speed? Now Bugatti's Chiron has passed the mph for the first time, hitting a top speed of Copious amounts of horsepower is the obvious method to win, but Bugatti was the first manufacturer to prove that it is possible to go extremely fast in the lap of luxury and safety when its Veyron hit Here was a car that could happily cruise London's King's Road before effortlessly hitting over mph at the hands of a relative novice.
After a series of top-speed attacks from rival manufacturers, Bugatti returned in with a Super Sport model capable of mph.
But in an age where technology seems to be advancing by the second, why has it taken until now for a manufacturer to reach the coveted mph mark? The engine has to supply the grunt to overcome this force, so it must be greatly increased in terms of performance, and in approximately the same space package there will be much more heat to get rid of.
