Bugatti Chiron


In the year 2005 Bugatti released a car that would change the car world forever. Bugatti had a been promising a car that would break all records, they unveiled it in the 2005 and it did break all the top speed production car records. It reached 253 mph, which made it the fastest production car, beating the McLaren F1. After a few year however it's record was broken by an American car called the SSC Ultimate Aero which reached a top speed of 256 Mph. 

                                  

Desperate to regain their title they went back to the drawing board and in the year 2009 they came out with the Bugatti very super sports. This car again broke all the records by every hyper car, it made more than 1200 bhp, which is insane. 

                                  

Its been 12 long years with the Bugatti Veryron and finally the replacement has arrived, it's called the Chiron. The design language is quite similar to the Veyron but the aerodynamic kit on the car is much more pronounced now. It sits lower to the ground than the Veryron. 
The Bugatti Chiron is made by exquisite materials such as magnesium, carbonfibre, titanium and diamonds. Yes, you heard that right, Diamonds. There are diamonds in the speaker system of the Chiron, to enhance the sound quality. The Chiron is powered by a quad turbo 8 litre 16 cylinder engine. If you drive the engine flat out it will consume all the fuel in just 8 minutes. It is a very powerful engine producing nearly 1500 bhp. Bugatti says it is limited to 261 mph, which means it won't be able to break the world record, however when de restricted it can easily hit 288 mph. The tyres can pull nearly 3000 g on the tyres, for reference a man can just pull 9, after that you are dead. 

                                       

Bugatti says it has received more than 200 orders and the average belongings of a person who has a ordered a Chiron is that he has 64 cars, 2 yachts, 2 helicopters. With a  price tag of 1 million pounds, it is not a car for everyone. But I'm sure that like the old Bugatti Veyron it will surely capture the hearts of many school boys and young people. So is this the new fastest car in the world ? ...... Time will tell.
