The Bugatti Chiron is a mid-engined two-seat hypercar, designed and developed in Germany and manufactured in Molsheim, France. The successor to the Bugatti Veyron, the Chiron was first shown at the Geneva Motor Show on 1 March 2016. The car is named after the Monégasque driver Louis Chiron, and shares the name with the 1999 Bugatti 18/3 Chiron concept car.
The main carry-over component from the Veyron is the 8.0-litre quad-turbocharged W16 engine, though it is heavily updated with larger turbos, new internals and a peak power output of 1,479 hp at 6,700 rpm and 1,180 lb-ft of torque between 2,000 and 6,000 rpm. Like its predecessor, the Chiron utilises a carbon fibre body structure, independent suspension and a Haldex all-wheel drive system.
The Chiron can accelerate from 0–62 mph in 2.4 seconds, from 0–124 mph in 6.5 seconds and from 0–186 mph in 13.6 seconds. In a world-record-setting test in 2017, the Chiron reached 249 mph in 32.6 seconds, after which it needed 9.4 seconds to brake to a standstill. The Chiron's top speed is electronically limited to 261 mph in low-drag mode, or 236 mph without the ‘speed key’.
The Chiron features a fully adaptive chassis that optimises damping, ride height, aerodynamics, steering and powertrain. The carbon ceramic brakes are 20mm larger than the Veyron’s (now 420mm front and 400mm rear) and 2mm thicker. These are gripped by forged aluminium callipers (eight-piston at the front, six-piston at the rear) built to an asymmetrical design to help dissipate energy. A new design of heat shield guides air through the discs to further aid cooling.
This example is supplied with a full service history, a service & warranty package until 2026 as well as the accessories originally specified with the car. Paint protection film has also been applied to the full exterior of the car ensuring this example is as new. EU Taxes have also been paid on this specific Chiron.
