Bugatti Chiron Super Sport

Handcrafted at the Bugatti Atelier in Molsheim, France, the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport represents one of the most powerful pure internal combustion automobiles ever produced. At its mechanical core sits an 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged W16 engine delivering 1,578 horsepower (1,177 kW) and 1,180 lb-ft of torque, routed through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission to a permanent all-wheel-drive system. In independent testing conducted by Car and Driver, the Chiron Super Sport accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 2.2 seconds and blasted through the quarter-mile in 9.1 seconds at a terminal velocity of 161 mph. Engineered with an elongated longtail rear bodywork to maintain laminar airflow at high velocities, the vehicle incorporates an electronically controlled top speed of 273 mph (440 km/h). Constructed from carbon-fiber composites and fitted with bespoke Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, the Chiron Super Sport stands as a monumental achievement in internal combustion engineering. Ranks ninth with a 0-60 mph time of 2.2 seconds and a 9.1-second quarter-mile, representing the peak of quad-turbo W16 combustion power. Assembled in France, the 1,578-horsepower Bugatti Chiron Super Sport reaches 60 mph in 2.2 seconds and crosses the quarter-mile in 9.1 seconds at 161 mph. Key benchmarks: zero to sixty sec: 2.20 s; zero to hundred kmh sec: 2.40 s; quarter mile sec: 9.10 s.
