THE ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE

BUGATTI CHIRON

Pure driving and pure adrenaline: BUGATTI is proud to introduce the CHIRON PUR SPORT1– a substantial and bold evolution of the CHIRON2 concept “Form follows performance”, making it the most agile and uncompromising CHIRON ever. Significant technological improvements on the chassis, gearbox and engine push the physical boundaries and the limits of driving dynamics once again further. More radical, more aggressive and more dramatic, the CHIRON PUR SPORT is BUGATTI’s pinnacle of driving dynamics, enabling straightforward handling on winding roads and providing an impelling thrill behind the wheel.  A “Pur Sang d’Automobiles” through and through!

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

The Chiron, Chiron Sport, and Chiron Super Sport 300+ are motivated by an 8.0-liter 16-cylinder powerplant. This beast of an engine employs four turbochargers to generate a mighty 1500 horsepower and 1180 lb-ft of torque. Bugatti claims that the Chiron makes the dash from zero to 60 mph in a mere 2.3 seconds, and it has a top speed of 261 mph. If the Chiron’s standard engine doesn’t quench your thirst for speed, step up to the Chiron Super Sport 300+.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

As one would expect from a car with a 1500-hp engine, the Chiron won’t win any points for being eco-friendly. According to the EPA, the 2019 Chiron achieves mileage (we hesitate to use the words “fuel economy”) of 9/14 mpg city/highway.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

The Chiron’s exterior features a C-shaped design cue carved into its side panels, and this element is also present within the car’s cabin. It’s reflected in the graceful curve of a partition that separates driver and passenger. Bugatti has dressed the Chiron’s cabin in top-of-the-line materials, and the interior bears space-age styling elements that add whimsical charm.

Infotainment and Connectivity

The Chiron’s singular focus on performance brings with it compromises on the infotainment front. This Bugatti functions much like a race car, and it has the stripped-down tech content to match. There’s no infotainment screen, and features such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability aren’t offere.

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features

The 2020 Bugatti Chiron hasn’t been crash tested by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) or the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). It’s not offered with commonly available driver-assistance features such as blind-spot monitoring.

chassis and suspension setup

Bugatti specifically configured the chassis and suspension to be uncompromising on winding roads – without any detrimental effect on comfort. A new chassis setup featuring 65% firmer springs at the front and 33% firmer springs at the rear, an adaptive damping control strategy geared towards performance as well as modified camber values (minus 2.5 degrees) guarantee even more dynamic handling and added agility in bends.

We can also call it DRIVING BEAST.
