Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is a development of the Bugatti Veyron EB 16.4 released in 2005. The sports edition includes extensive, not superficial, modifications of the original version. The modifications are intended to unleash more power while retaining the original Veyron's poise and drivability. The super sport edition, as expected, has more power than the standard version. Engine for both editions is almost similar, except that the sports' edition has reduced internal resistance. In addition, the super sport edition's engine has 4 turbochargers which are bigger than those of the standard edition. Other visible features that differentiate the new version from the old are the Naca duct located in the roof and which are meant to feed more air to the intercoolers. Other Changes outlined by the Dr Oliver Schauerte (Bugatti's engineer) include a revised front with extra grills designed to aid in breathing and improve brake cooling. Both versions have similar brake discs, but the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport has racing-grade pads.
Currently, Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport is formally the fastest car in the globe, averaging 431.072kph (267.856mph). Observed by Guinness Book of records representatives and independent testers, the official Bugatti test driver Pierre-Henri Raphanel recorded two runs on the same track (but on different directions) reaching 269.805 and 265.905mph respectively. The new record is obviously an average of the two records. The previous fastest record was recorded in 2007 and stood at 256mph by an SSC ultimate Aero.
A review of the Bugatti Veyron Supersport edition is not complete without the mention of an array of impressive numbers. On this, let's look at the price. Valued in Sterling Pounds, the car is currently priced from £1.45m to £1.62m. On its launch, five carbon finished cars with orange highlights sold for as much as £1.72m each. Carbon dioxide emissions (Co2 emissions) produced by the car stand at 539g/km. Number of Bugatti's sold since 2005 are 260, 40 of these thought to be the super sport edition. Talking of acceleration, test records show that the average acceleration rate associated with the car is 0-62mph in only 2.5 seconds. What about braking? On this one, official records show that Buggatti Veyron Super Sport stops from 62mph to stand-still in only 32 meters. Other figures that may be worth including here are the fuel consumption rates. On average the car's fuel economy ranges from 7.59mpg and 18.9mpg (where mpg is miles per gallon).
In conclusion, certain facts may be worth noting about the super Bugatti 16.4 Super sport car. Bugatti produced only five world edition models of the super sport model and all have been sold out. All the five were finished in black carbon-fiber with orange highlights. Anyone willing to buy similar colored cars will be saddened by the fact that the company declared that similar cars will not be produced. Such buyers, however, can specify the color and features of their car to meet the record breakers' speed and power but not identical finishing. The company further assures potential buyers that the company may consider adding additional features at the buyers' request, at an additional, but considerate fee.
