This Is What A $4 Million Bugatti Chiron Window Sticker Looks Like

It’s come to my attention that most Americans don’t live within easy walking distance of a Bugatti dealership. I was surprised to hear this, as I was just about certain that the Hyundai/Kia dealership near me also sold Bugattis, but it turns out I had them confused with Mitsubishi. The guy on the phone said this happened all the time, but usually he could put potential Chiron buyers into a new Outlander, so he really didn’t mind. Anyway, it seems like most people have not seen the window sticker on a new Chiron, a problem I’m about to solve for you.

It seems our own Editor-In-Chief Rory Something will be driving one of these soon in Connecticut, one of America’s Strategic Wealth Preserves, and before they let him into one they sent him all kinds of information on where he needs to go to get deloused and that sort of thing. They also included the Monroney sticker for the 2021 Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport Hatchback DX:

Bugatti Bolide Hypercar Bought With Dogecoin

Early this month, the ‘joke’ meme coin called Dogecoin reached an all-time high and one individual capitalised on this.

A US-based supercar (and hypercar) collector who goes by the name @cococulture_ on Instagram announced on the 8th of May that he has sold 25% of his DOGE coin to purchase a Bugatti Bolide – casual. The withdrawal was so large that some people speculate that his major sale saw the price dip a few hours after

According to data collected by Dogecoin Rich List, one whale owns 28.7% of all Dogecoin, while the top 12 whales own 50% of all available DOGE.

As a reminder, the Bugatti Bolide is a track-only hypercar from Bugatti inspired by race cars from the 1920s and 1930s.

Drag race: Bugatti’s Chiron Pur Sport takes on French fighter jet

In a race reminiscent of a 2007 Top Gear episode that sees Richard Hammond behind the wheel of a Bugatti Veyron taking on a Eurofighter Typhoon in possibly the wildest drag race ever seen on television, Bugatti has recreated something very similar, and once again a very one-sided drag race is the result, but that’s for later.

In 2021, Bugatti’s limited run Chiron Sport ‘Les Légendes du Ciel’ derivative lines up next to the Dassault Rafale Marine, a French twin-engine, canard delta wing, multirole fighter aircraft capable of a 1 389 km/h top speed.

The location is a naval base in Landivisiau, north-west France and Bugatti’s latest model, only 20 ‘Les Légendes du Ciel’ models were built to celebrate the company’s founder Ettore Bugatti’s success in aviation.

Bugatti test driver Pierre-Henri Raphanel launches the hyper sports car to 100 km/h in 2.4 seconds and onto 200 km/h in 6.1 seconds. French navy pilot Etienne Bauer’s Rafale Marine might weigh close to 10 tons, but the fighter jet is able to hit 165 km/h after 150 meters and 210 km/h after 250 meters, and takes off after 450 meters at around 260 km/h.

Bugatti Reveal 440 Km/H Chiron Super Sport Limited To 9 Examples

Say hello to what Bugatti is calling “The Quintessence of Luxury and Speed” but we call it the Chiron Super Sport.

Production is limited to just nine examples making it even rarer than the Chiron Super Sport 300+.

While the Super Sport 300+ offering was derived from the record-breaking car driven at 304.773 mph (490.484 km/h), this new Super Sport has a different finish. It retains the reworked body stretched by 25 centimetres (9.8 inches) compared to the standard Chiron for optimal airflow at high speeds. Stacked double exhausts provide a deeper and richer soundtrack courtesy of the quad-turbo 8.0-litre engine producing an immense 1,577 hp (1,176 kW) and 1,600 Nm (1,180 lb-ft) of torque.

This variant features redesigned aluminium wheels with a five Y-spoke design and an optional diamond-cut finish. If you wish to lower weight, then you can add the magnesium wheels found on the Chiron Pur Sport. These wheels are wrapped in some special Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2’s as they can consistently withstand speeds of up to 311 mph (500 km/h).

New Bugatti Chiron Super Sport is £2.75m hyper tourer

New version of Molsheim's flagship pairs speed-enhancing aerodynamics kit with luxurious interior

Bugatti has revived the Super Sport name for an uprated version of the Chiron, which will serve as a sister model to the recently launched Chiron Pur Sport.

The new addition to the Chiron line-up shares its mechanicals - and most of its styling - with the Chiron Super Sport 300+, a limited-run special edition based on the specially adapted Chiron that achieved a record-breaking top speed of 304mph in 2019.

Unlike that car, however, the £2.75 million Super Sport places more of an emphasis on rolling refinement. Whereas the Super Sport 300+ was presented as a lightweight and mainly pace-focused affair, the new Super Sport stays true to the Bugatti tradition of "combining top speed with absolute luxury," according to president Stephan Winkelmann. It is, he claimed, "the ultimate grand tourer".

Chief among the design revisions over the standard Chiron are a bespoke front end and a 25cm-longer rear end that optimises aerodynamic efficiency. This, combined with a revised diffuser and EB110-inspired exhaust vents on the rear wings, helps to counteract the "immense" downforce enacted on the Super Sport at its 273mph top speed.

While the 30 production examples of the record-breaking Super Sport 300+ feature exposed carbonfibre bodywork, the new Super Sport is marked out by its more overtly production-focused, optional two-tone livery. Bugatti says this makes the car appear longer and "even lower".

The Pur Sport's lightweight magnesium wheels are an option, but the Super Sport is equipped as standard with a unique set of five-spoke aluminium items.

Inside, the Super Sport more closely matches the standard Chiron, with polished aluminium and leather used for most surfaces, along with elements of carbonfibre. Bugatti says it's "an interior perfectly suited to high-speed continental trips".

As with all other iterations of the Chiron, the Super Sport takes its power from a quad-turbocharged 8.0-litre W16 petrol engine, tuned to match the 1578bhp output of the 304mph car. Maximum engine speed is up 300rpm over the standard Chiron, at 7100rpm, while maximum torque - some 1180lb ft - is now available across a broader rev range.

The Chiron Super Sport follows in the footsteps of the 1931 Type 55 Super Sport, the 1993 EB 110 Super Sport and the 2010 Veyron Super Sport. It will enter production in early 2022.

Bugatti unleashes R52m Chiron Super Sport with 1 176 kW

Bugatti has unleashed a new creation called the Chiron Super Sport as something of a follow-up to the Super Sport 300+ of 2019, which broke through the magical ‘300 mph’ barrier with its 490 km/h top speed run.

Although the new Chiron Super Sport follows the same technical recipe as the ‘300’ model, Bugatti is billing this as a more elegant and luxurious offering. Set to go into production in early 2022, the Chiron Super Sport will have a price tag of 3,2 million euro, which equated to around 52,8 million at the time of writing.

The newcomer is powered by a “thoroughly overhauled” version of Bugatti’s 8,0-litre W16 engine, which in this guise produces a wholesome 1 176 kW and 1 600 N.m, which is now accessible between 2 000 and 7 000 r/min, as the vehicle’s engine speed has been increased to 7 100 r/min.

As you could imagine, it’s pretty darn fast, considering that according to claims it’ll get from zero to 300 km/h in 12,1 seconds, which is quicker than it takes your average rental hatchback to get to 100.

But the Super Sport is not only more powerful than your ‘regular’ Chiron, it’s also 23 kg lighter and comes with a more aerodynamic ‘long tail’ body design that’s been extended by 25 cm at the rear. The vehicle’s body was designed to generate massive downforce to counter the uplift forces that come into play at 440 km/h and beyond.

Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Final Testing Includes 440 Km/H Top Speed Runs

Bugatti is in the final stages of testing the sleek Chiron Super Sport and although it has lost the ‘300+’ suffix, it is not what you would call slow.

Previous tests saw the Chiron Super Sport hit “only” 380 km/h (236 mph) but now they have pushed it all the way to the electronically governed top speed of 440 km/h (273 mph). To accurately register all the relevant data and make last-minute tweaks, the peeps from Molsheim have fitted a prototype with approximately 100 additional sensors that record temperature, pressure, and other key information.

As you can see in one of the images below the Bug turns into a bug killer at those sort of speeds.

Bugatti did not just give the Chiron Super Sport a longer body and extra grunt from the quad-turbo W16 because it also makes use of a tweaked transmission. The final gear, 7th will not be selected until you hit a casual 403 km/h (250 mph). Thanks to the 1,577 hp (1,176 kW) being developed, the hypercar can “accelerate strongly” even after hitting the insane 400 km/h mark.

Newly formed Bugatti Rimac LLC will be headquarted in Croatia, but Bugatti will retain Molsheim factory

The long-mooted partnership between Bugatti and EV technology specialist Rimac Automobili is now official, with the two firms becoming a stand-alone entity headquartered in Croatia.

The new company, Bugatti Rimac LLC, is 45% owned by Porsche and 55% owned by the newly formed Rimac Group, in which Rimac founder Mate Rimac – who will be CEO – retains a 37% shareholding, with Porsche holding a 24% stake, Hyundai Motor Group 12% and other investors making up the remaining 27%. Porsche chairman Oliver Blume and deputy chairman Lutz Meschke will both serve as supervisory board members at the new joint venture.

Rimac’s powertrain, battery and components development arm will be separated out into a new, dedicated Rimac Technology division, which is part of the Rimac Group but remains independent and will continue to work with other manufacturers.

Bugatti and Rimac will remain separate brands, retaining their respective current French and Croatian production facilities. However, from 2023, the newly formed company will be based at the new Rimac Campus on the outskirts of Zagreb, which will employ 2500 people. From launch, the company employs some 430 people: around 300 in Zagreb and 130 in Molsheim.

The move has significant implications for future models from the two firms – particularly Bugatti, which will gain access to Rimac’s high-output electric drivetrain technology as a potential replacement for its long-standing W16 petrol engine in the coming years.

Bugatti to launch EVs but also retain ICE power

New partnership with Rimac secures Bugatti EV powertrains, but hybrid tech will allow W16 to live on

Bugatti will diversify its line-up and usher in electrification following the signing of a partnership with EV specialist Rimac but will continue to offer internal combustion engines in the long-term.

The ultra-exclusive French brand is now part of the Croatia-based Rimac Group, having partnered with Rimac Automobili to form new company Bugatti Rimac LLC.

As part of this joint venture, Bugatti will have access to electric drivetrains and components developed by Rimac for use in its future models. However, group CEO Mate Rimac has promised that the marque's first dedicated EV will be more than simply a rebodied Rimac Nevera.

"What some people expect might happen is that we take a Nevera and slam a Bugatti logo on it and call it a Bugatti," he said. "That's absolutely not going to happen. That's not what we're going to do. I'm a car guy, and while of course we want to make a profitable company, we will not just recycle what we have.

"We will not just restyle or hybridise the Chiron to make a new car. We're developing a completely new product from the ground up, because we think that's the best way to go, and that product will still have a combustion engine."

It remains unclear whether Bugatti's longstanding quad-turbocharged W16, as used by the Veyron, the Chiron and their derivatives, will be hybridised as part of this process.

Porsche chairman Oliver Blume, who is a supervisory board member for Bugatti Rimac, said: "We will continue the business of the Chiron, and we already have ideas for new cars and to develop once again a very unique product.

Croatians take control of Bugatti’s future

Bugatti no longer the jewel in VW’s crown.

No brand is more symbolic of turbopetrol engine excellence than Bugatti.

Revived by VW and then given huge R&D assets, Bugatti has captured the imagination, for two decades, with some of the world’s fastest and most powerful cars.

But as change sweeps over the automotive industry, Bugatti is at risk of becoming irrelevant. And to illustrate how its fortunes have waned, it will now report to a design office in Zagreb.

In an announcement that was expected, Bugatti is no longer an independent sub-brand of VW. It has become a joint-venture constituent of Bugatti-Rimac. And don’t let that hyphen fool you, because the Croatian start-up hypercar brand, which specializes in electric vehicles, holds a 55% share.

Industry analysts will be quick to point out that Porsche, in turn, holds 24% of Rimac, but the truth is undeniable: Rimac will control the destiny of Bugatti.

What does the future hold? Mate Rimac is promising that Bugattis won’t be rebadged Rimacs. He sees internal combustions engines being part of Bugatti’s immediate future, although they will be significantly hybridized – making the cars even heavier.

Limited Production Run For Track Only Bugatti Bolide Rumoured

Bugatti took the virtual covers off the Bolide hypercar in October last year and as expected, it was rather impressive, to say the least.

The track-only creation produces 1,825 hp (1,361 kW) and 1,850 Nm (1,364 lb-ft) of torque from an upgraded version of their quad-turbo W16 engine.

When the covers came off, supercar and hypercar collectors around the world went crazy in the hopes of getting one but at the time, it was a one-off project for a very wealthy client.

We then assumed more than one would be made as a collector was rumoured to have bought one with the Dogecoin cryptocurrency earlier this year.

Bugatti had to decide if it made sufficient business sense to put it into limited series production and according to TheSupercarBlog, they are said to be building at least 40 examples of the Bolide, and order books are quickly filling up. The price tag on one of these exclusive track cars is expected to be around €5 million.

Yowzer: the bananas Bugatti Bolide has made production

Bugatti's track-only study loses power and gains safety kit, but still looks an extraordinary way to spend £3.5m

Last year, Bugatti showed us what the ultimate iteration of its hypercars could look like. The Bolide was a design study and 1,824bhp track special that melted our poor little minds.

And now it’s real. Or at least will be soon. Bugatti is making 40 of them, sold at four million euros apiece (around £3.5m) with deliveries scheduled for 2024.

Which should go some way to explain this simply isn’t a reskinned Chiron with a big wing bolted on. This is a complete direction change from Bugatti’s usual ‘heavy but fast’ philosophy. Well, not a complete direction change. It’s still very much quick.

Though not quite as quick as first promised. That mighty power figure was yielded with 110-RON fuel – the kind of stuff you have to order in from, well, we don’t dare ask who. Plug in the same 98-RON stuff you’ll get from the premium pump at most UK petrol stations and the quad-turbo W16 engine pumps out 1,600PS, or 1,578bhp for fans of old-fashioned pedantry over neatness.

We’re told it’ll rev higher than usual (but we’re not told to which number) while ‘the cooling system for the turbochargers, engine, transmission, and differential are modified for optimum power development’. The whole thing has had a good old tickle, then.

Quite where the shaved power figure leaves some of the Bolide’s hypothetical achievements announced on the concept’s arrival – 0-311mph-0 in 33.62secs and a 5m 23s Nordschleife laptime – remains to be seen. But those figures could gain a whole minute each and still feel utterly spectacular, never mind a weeny handful of seconds that’s much more likely.

The Bolide is described as ‘the ultimate driving machine for track’, and weighs a scant 1,450kg, even with all the necessary safety equipment that’s been added to 2020’s slenderer prototype. Golf GTI levels of mass are totally acceptable with 1600PS providing motive force, we’d vehemently argue.

Track-Only Bugatti Bolide Production Run Confirmed​

Last week we mentioned that Bugatti might have been convinced to produce a limited run of their track-only hypercar called the Bolide and we can now confirm it will no longer be a one-off affair.

The concept made the headlines in October 2020 with its jaw-dropping design and equally impressive technical specifications and now 40 individuals around the world will be lucky enough to add one to their no-doubt impressive collection.

Since it does not need to comply with regulations applicable to road cars, it means Bugatti has the complete freedom to squeeze every last drop of performance from the Chiron platform.

It’s worth noting the production version won’t be as powerful as the concept since the engineers are tweaking the 8.0-litre engine to work with regular gasoline rather than the 110-octane racing fuel of last year’s show car.

That means the new output will “only” be 1,577 hp (1,176 kW) and 1,600 Nm (1,180 lb-ft) of torque which matches the Chiron Super Sport and Centodieci but in a far lighter hypercar.

Bugatti could do something ‘insane’ like an SUV, new boss Rimac says

Big changes are afoot at Bugatti, following Rimac’s recent acquisition of a majority stake in the French hypercar specialist, which will see the formation of a new company called Bugatti Rimac.

This doesn’t mean that the Volkswagen Group will be out of the picture completely, with the German auto giant retaining a 45% stake. However Rimac, which builds the world’s fastest electric hypercar, will be in the driver’s seat, with its founder Mate Rimac expected to take the role of CEO.

Although the future product direction has yet to be officially confirmed, Mate Rimac reportedly has some big plans for Bugatti. In a recent interview with MotorTrend, Rimac hinted that he might do something ‘crazy’. "With this brand, you can do so much. Maybe an SUV or long hood coupe or something absolutely insane that no one thinks about," he told the US publication.

That said, hypercars will remain a priority, and Bugatti is set to launch a fully-electric vehicle by the end of this decade, MotorTrend reports, while a petrol-electric hybrid model is also on the cards for an earlier date.

And judging by what Rimac has concocted thus far, you can certainly expect even more insane levels of performance from future Bugatti’s.

The first eight Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ hypercars are ready for delivery

Thank god Bugatti has reminded us, we almost forgot we’d placed our order…

Remember back in the olden days when you’d order something off the so-called Interweb and it would take so long to arrive that you would forget you’d ever bought it? Well, that’s probably what’s happening to eight very rich people in different corners of the globe right now…

That’s because back in 2019, they put down a deposit (or more likely paid the circa £4m asking price in full) for a Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+, and eight of the planned 30 cars are now ready for delivery. Result.

It’s been two years of testing and development for the longtail Chiron, with its 8.0-litre, quad-turbo W16 engine kicking out 1,578bhp to break the 300mph barrier. Bugatti says that a new thermal management system was needed for the engine and gearbox of the 300+, as well as new software for the powertrain and the turbochargers in particular.

Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ Deliveries Begin

Following the final testing of the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ in June, the first eight examples are now ready for delivery.

When the Chiron Super Sport 300+ first made headlines back in 2019, Bugatti established an entirely new standard of performance by blasting through the seemingly unbreakable 300 mph barrier. Surpassing the threshold at a speed of 304.773 mph (490.484 km/h), setting a new world record. Shortly after, to mark the 110th anniversary of the French luxury marque, it was announced that 30 units of the Chiron Super Sport 300+ would be built at Bugatti’s Atelier in Molsheim.

Reaching speeds of up to 440 km/h requires a lump of power and this certainly has that considering the quad-turbo W16 puts out 1,577 hp (1,176 kW).

Bugatti engineers also developed a new thermal management system for the hyper sports car’s engine and gearbox, ensuring all remain cool even when travelling at the automobile’s top speed.

Eight of the 30 Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ models have been delivered to the French hypercar manufacturer’s exclusive clientele. These deliveries take place after an extensive two-year testing and development program.

“The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ will forever remain a cornerstone of our marque’s illustrious history as it elevated automotive performance to levels that were once thought to be unreachable,” comments Christophe Piochon, Managing Director of Production and Logistics.

“It is the fastest hyper sports car Bugatti has ever made, and is a true testament to the engineering passion, technical expertise and relentless pursuit of performance our brand is synonymous with. We are excited to deliver the first eight units of this record-setting pioneer to our customers, and for them to experience the sheer sensation of speed behind the wheel.”

For those who need a refresher, Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ employs a quad-turbocharged 8,0-litre W16 petrol engine. This delivers 1 176 kW to all four wheels which allows it to reach a top speed of 440 km/h.

Boosting performance to ever greater heights, Bugatti engineers developed a new thermal management system for the hypercar’s engine and gearbox, ensuring all remain cool even when traveling at the top speed.

The Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport Is Extremely Expensive To Maintain Considering New Tyres Cost Over R600k

Maintaining a supercar can be very expensive but a Bugatti is no regular supercar and the Chiron Pur Sport is no regular Bugatti so you can bet it stings the wallet to keep in tip-top shape.

A Facebook post (included below) was shared by Muhammad Al Qawi Zamani, who apparently is a Bugatti enthusiast from Malaysia, currently living in Singapore. He recently popped into the new Bugatti showroom in Singapore and got some detailed information on the maintenance and parts costs of the Chiron Pur Sport.

The original prices in the post are converted from Singapore Dollars to Malaysian Ringgits, and what you see below are the prices converted to US dollars and South African Rands for your convenience.

If you were to replace the front ceramic brake discs and pads, you are in for $58,952 (approx. R892k). In some instances, you will also need to replace the brake fluids, cables and clean all the brake components which will come in at an additional $58,951.

What did surprise us was the fact that the four Garrett turbochargers need to be replaced around the 4-year mark which will set you back $25,978 (approx. R393k) for the set as well as $21,982 (approx. R332k) for a set of air duct coolers. At the same time, you will be expected to replace the fuel tank for $43,963 (approx. R660k) and let the mechanics recalibrate the engine with the new turbochargers for another $28,576 (approx. R432k).

Every 14 to 16 months, you need a set of new lightweight alloy wheels at a price of $49,958 (approx.R756k) and every 16 to 18 months you need new rubber. If you don’t feel like splashing out, you can get a cheaper set at $7,993 but if you want maximum traction for the track, you will need to opt for the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2R TR specially developed for the Chiron Pur Sport for a cool $41,965 (approx. R630k).
