Bugatti, originally French and now owned by Volkswagen group is oiling up its Veyron successors named as Chiron. Reports say that this all new car hypercar will do 0-100 kmph in just 2 seconds. Bugatti is expected to use the W16 8.0 litre engine from the Veyron that may produce more than 1500 PS and will add to the Formula1 car beating performance. The torque is believed to remain 1500 Nm but it will be coming in at a lower rpm than the current car. Moreover, Chiron could even be a hybrid as it’s name indicates towards a mythical animal, half human and half horse.
The Super Sport version of the Veyron is recognised by Guinness World Records as the fastest street-legal production car in the world, with a top speed of 431.072 km/h (268 mph), and the roadster Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse version is the fastest roadster in the world, reaching an averaged top speed of 408.84 km/h (254.04 mph) in a test on 6 April 2013.

Perhaps the greatest supercar ever, the Veyron 16.4 was for those with all the money in the world and a desire to go blisteringly fast; we say “was,” because the Veyron is no longer sold and its replacement, the Chiron, is not yet available. With an 8.0-liter turbo-quad W-16 engine and all-wheel drive; the Veyron makes 1001 hp and has a 200-mph-plus top speed. For topless fun, see the Grand Sport with its targa top. Need more speed?
