World premiere of the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse
Bugatti presents most powerful roadster ever at Geneva Motor Show
Molsheim/Geneva, 6 March 2012 – Following the success of the Veyron 16.4 Super Sport, Bugatti
did not have to wait long before it received the first inquiries about an open-top version of the
Grand Sport that could also deliver 882 kW (1,200 hp). “We were instantly electrified by the idea
of transferring the power of the Super Sport to the Grand Sport, which previously delivered a
maximum of 1,001 hp, and thus taking the roadster to a new level,” says Wolfgang Dürheimer. The
President of Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. continues: “Our team has managed to transfer the world’s
most powerful car engine to the open-top sports car while taking all vehicle dynamics and
aerodynamic parameters into consideration. We are proud to present the fastest roadster ever at
the Geneva Motor Show with the world premiere of the 1,200 hp Grand Sport Vitesse.”
