Bugatti Veyron legends – the modern-day hyper sports car
Four turbochargers, over 1,000 PS and speeds in excess of 400 km/h. The world had not seen a super sports car like this prior to its presentation in 2000. When the relaunched French luxury brand #Bugatti showcased its first series production car for decades, the term super sports car was no longer adequate to describe it.
“Thanks to the #veyron, #Bugatti catapulted itself into a new dimension. We set benchmarks around 20 years ago with the first luxury hyper sports car and we are proud of that to this day,” explains Stephan Winkelmann, President of #Bugatti. “The #veyron continues to be a car of superlatives: it broke several speed records and redefined what outstanding #automotive engineering can do,” he adds. The hyper sports car’s name goes back to French racing driver Pierre #veyron, active for #Bugatti between 1933 and 1953 in roles including test driver and development engineer. In 1939 he won the 24 Hours of Le Mans together with French racing driver Jean-Pierre Wimille in a #Bugatti Type 57C Tank.
Production of the #veyron started in 2005 at the newly built workshop in the Alsatian town of Molsheim. “With the #veyron, #Bugatti brought vehicle production back to France where our luxury brand was established 110 years ago and where it belongs,” Stephan Winkelmann explains.
