Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Review

Great celebration of the automotive world is held annually in Monterey, California. In 2009, he saw some of the vehicles most elegant, luxurious and valuable ever produced in over 100 years of motoring and the Bugatti play a significant role. The night before the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, the highlight of the event brand, known for impeccable Automotive Solutions, aesthetics and driving dynamics The second model was unveiled to the world - a unique removable roof the new Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport.


In response to customer demand, significant changes have been made to the vehicle a complex structure allows a race open, which adds a new dimension to this high-performance sports car. Contain many new and innovative safety and equipment, is the fastest and most exciting roadster in the world. It 'instantly recognizable because of its slightly higher windscreen, stylized daytime running lights, and lightweight, transparent polycarbonate roof.


The main challenge in developing the new Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport with removable roof resulted from the unique structure of the fixed-roof Bugatti Veyron. Optimum combination of rigidity and lightweight engineering ensures the monocoque passenger compartment of the original model is extremely strong while weighing an absolute minimum - is key to the vehicle structure. As the roof is an integral part of this, it meant the elimination of the load paths had to be completely redesigned to maintain the rigidity of the vehicle and the collision, and to provide additional protection from side impacts and rolling.

Consequently, a self-supporting has regained some of the side skirts and transmission tunnel. B-pillars have a cross-stiffened using a carbon fiber support, and the central carbon plate is placed under the transmission tunnel to ensure the vehicle suffers from less torsional flexing than any other roadster.

The doors of the new Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport are made of carbon fiber, and the house of an integrated longitudinal beam.


In the case of an accident, the transfer of charge from A to B-pillar, thereby spreading the impact energy. In addition, the two redesigned air intakes for the 16-cylinder mid-engine now has 10 cm wide, carbon fiber elements provide protection when deployed car.

Along with moisture-resistant, leather backstitched, several new hardware features have been added to interior design, including rear-view camera is a 2.7-inch mirror, mirror, and the "Puccini" with digital audio processor signal processing.

When the roof is closed, the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport to reach 407 km / h, while speeds of up to 360 km / h are possible with roof. In case of rain, an innovative folding roof stored in the trunk opens like an umbrella at any time. When this folding roof is in place, the car can operate up to 130 km / h.

Assembled by hand in the company's headquarters in Strasbourg, the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport will be available from March 2009 priced at 1.4 million euros (excluding taxes). Only 150 examples will be done with the first 50 of these going exclusively to registered Bugatti customers. The first vehicle is certain to be highly sought after, and Bugatti has decided to donate this specific vehicle to charity. Was sold to the highest bidder at the auction at Pebble Beach presented by Gooding & Company.

2011 Bugatti Veyron Super Sport Review

On a sunny day at 25 degrees in the Bugatti Veyron super sports achieved a world speed record new land for the production of cars in the field of proof of the Volkswagen Ehra-Lessien (near its headquarters in Wolfsburg) . In the presence of the German Technical Inspection Agency (TÜV) and a representative of Guinness Book of Records Super Sport Bugatti Veyron reached a speed of 431 km upper middle / h.

Saturday, 14 am - Official Bugatti driver Pierre Henri Raphanel puts his helmet and gloves, pull the belt tight, while engineers check the car again, the tire pressure, temperature, all systems go. Then, orange, black, Bugatti Veyron Super Sport through the light, the time from now will be made within an hour the car to go from south to north, then in the opposite direction. No one but the driver is allowed to touch the car during this time. Tensions. A few minutes later we heard the sound left a jumbo starting closest to us. First, we see the headlights of the Veyron, then we can recognize the shape of the car, a strong wooosh .... and stripes on top Raphanel speed ahead. The tours leave GPS-427, 933 km / h. Now, the same procedure in the opposite direction. This time the car reached 434.211 km / h.

Since the average speed in excess of Representatives, "TUV" and Guinness delivers value 431072 kmh (268 mph). It 'also hit the Bugatti design team as a surprise.

"We got that we could reach an average of 425 km / h." Bugatti chief engineer, Dr. Wolfgang Schreiber, "but the conditions today were perfect, and may be even more."

The highlight of the series Veyron: Bugatti Veyron Super Sport

Had a model has been particularly popular or very successful in racing, Ettore Bugatti customers often pushed to the master to unravel the engine a few more horses for their future car. Bugatti Automobiles SAS has been in a similar situation where their existing customers prompted the company to design not only their second model optically different, but also to create a version with a more sporty driving experience and more extreme. The result is a car with a unique high performance of 1200 hp (882 kW) offers drivers had a whole new dimension of excitement, with a maximum torque of 1500 Nm and a top speed limited to 415 km / h (for protect the bridge), but technical Bugatti Veyron Super Sport car is identical to the record. The first five Bugatti Veyron Super Sport to move away from the assembly line will be a special series of their own, with the same configuration as the car land speed record.

Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is the result of further development of exclusive Classic 1001 HP Bugatti Veyron 16.4, was launched in 2005. This model offers an impressive array of features, such as the transmission speed dual-clutch seven curves high precision driving performance and excellent stability under braking and acceleration.

Ongoing work in extreme performance swings lead to new conclusions constants, which allowed engineers to develop Bugatti Veyron in a direction where the driver can reach new dimensions. Any change is designed to produce a more powerful car for a tour flexible. Extended four turbochargers and larger heat exchangers were used to increase the power of 16-cylinder engine and the chassis has been completely redesigned to maintain security in extreme speed - with the head slightly raised and the trip spring, stronger stabilizer and new shock absorbers with a complex architecture originally developed for racing cars. This gives much more precise steering wheels and the car as a whole. The lateral acceleration up to 1.4 G, and better interaction between the tire and the drive system intelligent all-wheel offering Bugatti Veyron Supersport perfect handling and powerful acceleration in Newton-meters out of 1500 corner.

The system is developed to improve the aerodynamic efficiency and to maintain a perfect balance in every situation, when a new fiber structure of all carbon dioxide emissions monocoque ensures maximum torsional rigidity and passive safety features - low weight. The skin is completely of carbon fiber composites, and the new Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is available in 100 cents clearlacquered exposed carbon on request.

External dynamics

Every detail of this car, not only the use of advanced technology of motor sport back to the pioneering spirit of founder Ettore Bugatti. This brilliant designer of a family of artists, and his philosophy has always been the perfect combination of mechanical and outer beauty. This spirit is alive and well in the business, and the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is totally incomparable with all the external changes used to persuade a higher performance car.

The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is flat, elongated silhouette is immediately recognizable. The 16-cylinder engine gets its two NACA air duct integrated into the roof instead of balls on the engine. The front air intakes have been enlarged and remodeled, with the lower stretches gracefully at the sides of the wheel arch. The rear looks more sporty revised due to the double diffuser and an exhaust system located in the center.

Bugatti has a tradition of producing ultra-sports version of success stories, usually with a racing chassis and supercharged. These cars were considered true racing machines devotees Bugatti irreducible. The most successful was the type 55 and type 57S, only forty of each were built.

Bugatti Automobiles SAS has sold 260 Veyrons and 35 Grand Sport, at the latest, of 249 Veyrons and 22, the Gran Sport was delivered. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport will start production in autumn 2010 together Veyron Molsheim, and the Grand Sport. The first five cars - known as the edition of records worldwide - are exposed to a specific carbon black trim and orange and is already sold.

The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Supersport appeared publicly for the first time in California at Pebble Beach Concours weekend in mid-August 2010 and was featured at the Quail, the Monterey Historic races at Laguna Seca, and the concept lawn Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.

bugatti veyron

Last week, Bugatti test driver, er, pilote official, Pierre Henri Raphanel set the production-car speed record in Bugatti’s new Veyron Supersports 16.4. The 1,200 horsepower, 1,106 pound-feet monster propelled Raphanel to timed runs of 265.9 and 269.8 mph on Volkswagen’s Ehra-Lessien test track near Wolfsburg, which according to the Guinness people, averages to a V-max of 267.81 mph. That’s more than enough to bring the title of world’s fastest production car back to the VW fold. We phoned the former F1 and Japanese touring-car driver to get his take on what it’s like to approach the 270 mph mark in a production car, why the forest is his friend and whether or not he’s up to try for 300.he Veyron features a 16 cylinder engine, equivalent to two narrow-angle V8 engines mated in a W configuration. Each cylinder has four valves for a total of sixty four, but the narrow staggered V8 configuration allows two overhead camshafts to drive two banks of cylinders so only four camshafts are needed. The engine is fed by four bi-turbochargers and displaces 7,993 cubic centimetres (487.8 cu in), with a square 86 by 86 mm (3.4 by 3.4 in) bore and stroke.

The transmission is a dual-clutch direct-shift gearbox computer-controlled automatic with seven gear ratios, with magnesium paddles behind the steering wheel and a shift time of less than 150 milliseconds, built by Ricardo of England rather than Borg-Warner, who designed the six speed DSG used in the mainstream Volkswagen Group marques. The Veyron can be driven in either semi- or fully automatic mode. A replacement transmission for the Veyron costs just over €120,000. It also has permanent four wheel drive using the Haldex Traction system. It uses special Michelin PAX run-flat tyres, designed specifically to accommodate the Veyron's top speed, which reportedly cost €25,000 per set.[9] The tyres can be removed from the rims only in France, a service which reportedly costs €70,000. Curb weight is 1,888 kilograms (4,162 lb).[10] This gives the car a power to weight ratio, according to Volkswagen Group's figures, of 446.3 metric horsepower (328 kW; 440 bhp) per ton.
The car's wheelbase is 2,710 mm (106.7 in). Overall length is 4,462 mm (175.7 in), width 1,998 mm (78.7 in) and height 1,204 mm (47.4 in).
