Bugatti EB Veyron

Begin to produce the Bugatti EB Veyron 16.4 at the end of 2003, a factory located in Molsheim (France), where he was the original Bugatti factory until its first demise. The final model, as seen at the Geneva Motor Show 2003 will be nearly equal to the Bugatti showed at the Geneva Motor Show 2001.

The Veyron 16.4 is a two-seater chassis with carbon fiber, covered with aluminum panels and composite carbon fiber and Kevlar. It measures 4466 mm long, 1998 wide and 1206 high, is rather high, due to the air intakes above and draws attention to their route ahead, the biggest currently (comparative table of dimensions).

It has a 16-cylinder engine in 'W' (two banks of eight cylinders in V close) Rear central longitudinal position. Its displacement is 7993 cm ³, has four turbochargers, two intercooler, 64 valves and direct injection. Gives 1001 hp at 6000 rpm, a high number in absolute terms and relative to its displacement (125 hp / l).

It has four-wheel drive and a seven-speed semi-automatic with sequential control by means of cams located behind the steering wheel.

Bugatti has only provided the data from 0 to 300 km / h: less than 14 s. The maximum speed is 406 km / h. So far, not counting the competition, there has been no model for building more or less regular basis that has achieved these benefits (comparison table).

It has a spoiler that automatically deploys when the car reaches a certain speed the movement of the spoiler is deployed to the upward and back, 20 cm in each direction. To support high-speed aerodynamics, especially on the rear axle, the floor of the car has some form of inverted wing and rear diffuser is one that facilitates the flow of air under the car.

Pax has wheel-type (more on this type of tires) Michelin specially developed for this model. Its dimensions are 265/690 behind front tire on 335/710 takes 655 x 540 A. It is curious that there is much difference between front and rear in a car that has traction total.
