Video: Bugatti Veyron take-off

December 9, 2006 7:41pm

Here is another video that attempts to show how blisteringly fast the Bugatti Veyron truly is. A few months back we showed a Veyron accelerating away from a Nissan 350Z. Before that, we showed the video of a Lotus Elise and Veyron on the track. While the Elise would close in on the Veryon in […]

Despite rumors and reports about Bugatti’s future, president Thomas Bscher insists the automaker will continue building cars. “There will be another car,” said Bscher.
Bugatti will soon wrap up production of the Veyron, which is limited to a production run of just 300 units. The ultra-luxury carmaker is then expected to build a small number of […]

Spy Shots: Sneak peak at the Bugatti Veyron Targa

November 21, 2006 10:15am

Back in July, we reported that Bugatti is moving foward on a targa version of the Veyron — and an illustration of what it might look like. As we reported, the Veyron Targa will have a removable glass panel roof, and because of lack of space will not be able to be stored onboard. Webasto […]

Video: Bugatti Veyron on track

October 31, 2006 11:42pm

Several months ago we posted a video of a Lotus Elise chasing a Bugatti Veyron around a track. And not too surprisely on the very tight track the Elise does a great job of keeping up, which is exactly what it was designed to do.

Video: Bugatti Veyron launch

September 23, 2006 7:32am

Since 99.999 percent (likely even a few more nines) of us are never going to ride in a Bugatti Veyron, let alone own one, hopefully this will give you some clue as to how impossibly fast the Veyron is. Filmed from a Nissan 350Z, which is not a slow car by any means, watch the […]

With the Veyron launch out the way, industry experts have been wondering what’s next for Bugatti? There is talk about a Veyron Targa, an “entry-level” coupe and roadster, and a Veyron-based sedan.

New airbag rules could end Veyron sales in U.S.

August 16, 2006 9:15pm

Bugatti has said that new U.S. airbag regulations regarding “smart” airbags to help protect children and some women could drive it out of business. The new regulations — which go into effect in September — would cause Bugatti “substantial economic hardship.” The U.S. is Bugatti’s largest market and the French automaker cannot afford to lose […]

Following the news that Bugatti is planning a $1.9 million targa version of its Veyron for launch in 2008, Germany’s Auto Motor und Sport magazine produced this artist impression of the Veyron Targa.

Video: Power-to-weight vs. Power, Elise vs. Veyron

July 30, 2006 9:55pm

What happens when you compare the world’s most powerful car with a car that has one of the world’s best power-to-weight ratio? Well, check out the video.
This appears to be a very tight track, which plays into the Lotus Elise’s hands and we doubt the Veryron driver was giving it all he could — not […]

July 23, 2006 2:51pm

Bugatti is planning a new $1.9 million Veyron Targa for 2008. The Veyron Targa is said to have a glass roof engineered by Webasto — the same German firm responsible for the folding hardtop on the Volkswagen Eos. The glass panel will be removable but cannot be stored on board. A lack of space on […]
