Quad-Turbocharged W16 Engine with 1,500 HP The Bugatti Chiron is powered by an 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged W16 engine, producing 1,500 hp and 1,600 Nm (1,180 lb-ft) of torque, making it one of the most powerful production cars ever built.
0-100 km/h in Just 2.4 Seconds The Chiron accelerates from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 2.4 seconds, thanks to its all-wheel-drive system and 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Electronically Limited Top Speed of 420 km/h (261 mph) The standard Chiron’s top speed is electronically limited to 420 km/h (261 mph), but the Chiron Super Sport 300+ broke the 300 mph barrier, reaching 304.77 mph (490.48 km/h).
Tires Can Only Handle Top Speed for a Few Minutes The Chiron’s specially designed Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires are engineered to handle extreme speeds, but at top speed, they last only a few minutes before needing replacement.
Uses 60,000 Liters of Air Per Minute at Full Throttle At full throttle, the Chiron’s engine gulps 60,000 liters (15,850 gallons) of air per minute, showcasing the immense power and cooling requirements of the car.
Titanium Exhaust System for Weight Reduction The exhaust system is made from titanium, reducing weight and improving performance while delivering the Chiron’s signature deep growl.
Exclusive Carbon Fiber Monocoque Chassis The Chiron’s chassis is made entirely of carbon fiber, providing exceptional strength and rigidity while keeping the car’s weight as low as possible.
Limited to 500 Units Worldwide Bugatti has limited Chiron production to just 500 units, ensuring exclusivity and rarity for collectors and hypercar enthusiasts.
Costs Over $3 Million The base price of a Chiron starts at around $3 million, but special editions, such as the Chiron Super Sport 300+ and Chiron Pur Sport, push prices well beyond $4 million.
Consumes Fuel Like a Jet Engine The Chiron averages just 4 mpg (58 L/100 km) at full speed, making it one of the least fuel-efficient cars in the world, but that’s expected for a hypercar of this magnitude

The Chiron Sport is Bugatti’s sharper, lighter take on hypercar perfection, a 1,500hp quad-turbo W16 masterpiece with unmatched exclusivity. With production ended, prices are defying depreciation, especially for low-mileage, spec’d-to-the-hilt examples.
