Bugatti Chiron: only 40 units left to build!

In 2016, the Geneva Motor Show was the stage where the Bugatti Chiron was unveiled. A hypercar that promised to become a benchmark for this type of vehicle and that has lived up to all the expectations placed on it. Beyond its striking looks, its performance is outstanding, and success came quickly.

In fact, it was announced that only 500 units of the model would be built, so buyers keen to have one of them in their garage rushed to reserve, and within 18 months 300 units had already been sold. Today, only 40 units remain to be built, so anyone who wants to reserve one will need to act fast, as they may not last long.

United States, the main market for the Chiron

Although orders have come in from all over the world, the United States has become the main market for the Bugatti Chiron. The supercar’s presence at in-person events such as the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance has helped keep it in the spotlight and has encouraged prospective buyers to consider one of the few units still available.

In this final phase of production, which will mark its end, only the Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport and Chiron Super Sport versions will be built. These last units are already being manufactured at the Molsheim plant, where all the hypercars built over these years have been assembled.

The Bugatti Chiron is equipped with a powerful 8.0-litre W16 engine that delivers a maximum output of 1,500 CV, with 1,600 Nm of torque. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes 2.4 seconds, it reaches 200 km/h in 6.1 seconds and 300 km/h in 13.1 seconds.

The two versions being built to close the model’s commercial cycle arrived in the last two years. The Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport improved the hypercar’s characteristics in 2020, reducing the vehicle’s total weight and improving aerodynamics, which were already remarkable from the start.

The Chiron Super Sport is the final version of the model and arrived in 2021. There could be no better way to conclude the production of what is considered one of the most impressive hypercars ever designed.
