The car is named after French racing driver Pierre Veyron, who won the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1939 while racing for the original Bugatti company. It is a rear mid-engined supercar, which is designed and developed by the German Volkswagen Group and produced by Bugatti Automobiles SAS. The Veyron's chief designer was Hartmut Warkuss and the exterior was modeled by Jozef Kabaň of Volkswagen, both were under the guidance of former Peterbilt engineer and now Bugatti Engineering chief Wolfgang Schreiber.
Specifications
The Bugatti Veyron characterizes with 8.0-litre (488 c.i.d.) W16 engine with sixteen cylinders in four banks of four, which is equal to two narrow-angle V8 engines mated in a W configuration. Each cylinder has four valves for sixty four of total. The engine is powered by four turbochargers and displaces 7,993 cubic centimetres (487.8 cu in) of a square 86 by 86 mm (3.4 by 3.4 in) bore and stroke. It makes Buggati Veyron is a Super Sport version that is the fastest road-legal car in the world, with a top speed of 431.07 km/h (267.85 mph), further, the original version has a top speed of 408.00 km/h (253.52 mph). Thus, 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. The result Veyron can be driven in either semi or fully automatic mode and has permanent four wheel drive using the Haldex Traction system as well. It uses special Michelin PAX run flat tires. The Veyron's brakes use cross drilled, it is radial vented carbon fiber reinforced with silicon carbide (C/SiC) composite discs, manufactured by SGL Carbon, which have a much greater resistance to brake fade, the fact is that Bugatti claims the Veyron will brake from 400 km/h (250 mph) to a standstill in less than 10 seconds. Overall, it is the most expensive modern car in the world at $1,600,000 and its special Michelin PAX run flat tires costs $25,000 U.S. per set and the replacement transmission for the Veyron costs just over $120,000.
