Taking the Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport for a Drive

TGR Staff

Bugatti test driver and Le Mans winner Andy Wallace takes Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport1 on an extended road trip to Hatta. The exclave of the Emirate of Dubai is located approximately 100 kilometers south-east of the city of Dubai in the Hajar mountains on the border to Oman. One characteristic feature of the region surrounding Hatta is above all bends, bends, and more bends. The ideal terrain for the new Chiron Pur Sport and Andy Wallace.

The Bugatti engineers developed the new Chiron Pur Sport uncompromisingly for lateral dynamics – thereby expanding the range with a road-legal hyper sports car that offers outstanding driving characteristics. These include maximum agility, handling, and driving performance. Ideal for fast cornering.

And to match the 8.0-liter W16 engine with 1,500 PS and 1,600-newton meters of torque. Thanks to a 15 percent shorter transmission ratio, the Chiron Pur Sport accelerates even faster than a Chiron. It is now possible to accelerate from 0 to 100 in only 2.3 seconds instead of 2.4 seconds, and from 0 to 200 in 5.9 seconds instead of 6.1 seconds. Moreover, it accelerates in sixth gear from 60 to 120 km/h in 4.4 seconds instead of 7.4 seconds. The maximum speed is electronically limited to 350 km/h.

The production version of the Chiron Pur Sport, which is limited to 60 units and is priced at 3.6 million dollars, is being built in Molsheim, France.
