The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport, the exciting new holder of the title of world's fastest roadster, has made its exciting debut at the 2008 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. While other supercar-level convertible models such as the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Roadster go with a "true convertible" design with a fully stowable roof, the Bugatti goes a different route.
When the roof is closed, the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport can reach 407 km/h, while speeds of up to 360 km/h are possible with roof off. Should it rain, an innovative folding roof stored in the luggage compartment can be opened up like an umbrella at any time. When this folding roof is in place, the car can travel at up to 130 km/h.
An advantage to going with the targa top is that Bugatti has tuned the Grand Sport to maintain the hard top Veyron 16.4's top speed of 253 mph when the roof is in place, with the top speed dropping to a still-ridiculous 223.7 mph! Imagine the wind blowing your face off at speeds like this, and you can get a feel for why the Veyron Grand Sport should be as exciting as any convertible or other roadster model on the market.
The Grand Sport roadster model is not simply a chop job on a standard Bugatti Veyron 16.4. Bugatti has taken great pains to ensure the structural rigidity of the Grand Sport, making changes throughout the canopy and adding structural enhancements for both stability at speed and safety in the event of a crash. The front windshield is taller with a more upright look, and carbon fiber longitudinal beams and other structural enhancements protect the occupants and the Veyron Grand Sport's sheer speed capabilities.
The Veyron Grand Sport base price? A cool 1.4 million Euros, if you can find one. Production will be limited to just 150 units, with 50 earmarked for current Bugatti customers who feel the need to own two Veyrons.

ReplyDeleteubena zomozi hiyoooooo!!!!!
ReplyDeletethan what???
ReplyDeletewith bajaj i can reach whenever i want,,,
mkasaidie SOMALIA WAACHE PIRACY PALE MWISHO MISAADA YA AFRICA UKANDA HUU ITAPIGWA STOP NA WAZUNGU,sio gari lina gharama weee
crazy
acha fix kuna nyingine mpya nimeona leo inaenda 500kmph na bei yake euro milion 1.5
ReplyDeleteYaendelee kubaki kwenye nchi hizo hizo zinazoshabihiana na miundombinu yao. What is the point ya kuileta kwenye barabara ambapo hata speed ya 200 mashaka kufika! Si matumizi mabaya ya pesa? Am comfortable on my motorbike inanifikisha kwenye vichochoro vyovyote nnavyotaka kwenda!
ReplyDeleteMdau uliyesema yabaki hukuhuko umeweka Point nzuri haya magari ndio yataleta sifa za kuendesha mbio barabara za kwenda mikoani matokeo yake ajali, Tanzania ma Bus mengi wanaendesha kwa sifa zisizo na msingi mtu anaona Mistari miwili katikati ila haelewi maana yake anaipita tu gari ya mbele mwisho booom umeuwa watu mia. hata vibajaji wanaviendesha kwa fujo kina gonga Jiwe kubwa kimebidukak ule. Tusisifu vitu mbavyo havitotusaidia jamani. Usalama Barabarani Muhimu. KIngorisingambio.
ReplyDeleteATAIENDESHA WAPI HIO GALI YAKE YENYE SPEED HIZO, BARABARA ZOTE MWENDO WA KASI SIO ZAIDI YA 120 HADI 150,HIZO ZA ZIADA AMBAZO ZIPO KWENYE GARI YAKE YEYE MWENYEYE MPAKA ATAKUFA HATOWEZA KUZIENDESHA, HELA TU INAMUHANGAISHA HAJUIA AITUMIE VIPI,KWANI MTU AKIWA NA HELA KAMA HAJUI ZA KUZIFANYA ANAKUWA NA AKILA SAWA NA MWENDAWZIMU,ANAWEZA KUFANYA KITU HATA HAKINA MAANA YOYOTE ETI TU KWAAJILI ANAHELA,NA WASIO NA AKILI HUONA KAMA NDIO JAMAA ANA AKILI, NIKUWA KWELI ANA HELA,LAKINI AKILI YA BINADAMU INABAKIA PALE PALE HUO HAIONGEZEKI KUTOKANA NA HELA YAKE,INAWEZEKANA WEWE UNMSHINDA KWA AKILI,ILA YEYE NDIO AMEBAHATIKA KUPATA HELA,

Gari hiyo sio ya kwanza kuliko zote dunia kaka michuzi, Gari ambayo inakimbia kuliko zote Ni AERO SSC ULTIMATE NDIO KING NOW. AND this fact
ReplyDeleteGuinness World RecordsTM verified today that Shelby SuperCars’ (SSC) Ultimate Aero is officially the "Fastest Production Car" in the world. This is the first time the production speed record title has been held by a United States auto manufacturer since the Ford GT40 claimed the record in 1967. Guinness’ strict testing procedure required the car to drive down the course, turn around, and make a second pass in the opposite direction within one hour. The vehicle’s official "top speed" was then calculated by averaging the top speeds of each pass in order to negate any favorable road or weather conditions. Driver Chuck Bigelow, 71, drove SSC’s Ultimate Aero on a stretch of highway 221, clocking 414.31 kph (257.44 mph) on the first pass and 410.24 kph (254.91 mph) on the second pass to yield an official record speed of 412.28 kph (256.18 mph). From data presented by Dewetron’s world-renowned data acquisition system, Guinness officials verified the official speed to be .52 kph (.32 mph) faster than SSC had originally noted. This breaks the current official record held by the Koenigsegg CCR at 388 kph by 24.28 kph (15.09 mph) and the Bugatti Veyron's unofficial speed of 408.47 kph by 5.84 kph (3.63 mph).
Engineering a production car capable of speeds in excess of 250 mph is truly a significant task. In order to fit the definition of a production car, the vehicle must use pump gas and conform to all DOT/EPA regulations, among which include emissions and safety. These restrictions not only make it difficult but very impressive for production cars to produce such high performance figures. Finding a testing site was another obstacle that SSC encountered, eventually forcing the company to prove their claim on a two-lane road in Washington State's farming country. It has been decades since testing has been conducted on public roads, where factors such as wind and uneven road surfaces add complexities unknown to dedicated test tracks. Although SSC claims the Ultimate Aero's true top speed potential was not reached due to the limited length of road available to accelerate (2.5 miles), they feel that there is no better way to show the true limits of a production car than by testing it on the public roads for which it is intended. Nevertheless, SSC is currently speaking with a media source that is trying to organize a super car event at a very well known testing track overseas.
Jerod Shelby made a statement "Since the Mclaren F1, the Koenigsegg CCR, and the Bugatti Veyron all had a luxury that SSC hasn't had yet, we look forward to the day we can test the Ultimate Aero's true top speed capability in a controlled environment with a near perfect surface, as our predecessors did. We feel that we have safely left 6-10 mph on the table for when that day comes." To put the Ultimate Aero's acceleration into perspective; if the Aero enters the straight at Ehra – Lessien at the same speed the Veyron did, it would have enough room to accelerate to 255 mph, brake to a stop and still have 1.7 miles left of straightaway.
With 1183 bhp and 1094 ft-lbs of torque, the Ultimate Aero produces more emissions-legal horsepower than any other production automobile in the world (another Guinness World RecordTM for which SSC is currently applying). Despite being designed to run at redline for extended periods of time, the Ultimate Aero remains remarkably drivable. The proprietary twin-turbo V8 power plant retains excellent idle characteristics, and thanks to a drag coefficient of just .357, Langley Full Scale Wind Tunnel testing calculates the vehicle to be aerodynamically stable to speeds up to 273 mph. Featuring all the amenities found in a luxury sedan, the supple leather/suede interior is highlighted by custom Recaro seats, a 10 speaker premium system, DVD/navigation/backup camera, and a cab-controlled lift that raises the front an extra four inches to navigate road hazards. Shelby SuperCars would like to especially thank Michelin for providing technical support during testing; the Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s provided remarkable performance most notability for withstanding many miles at speeds from 200 mph – 257 mph on public roads with little to no wear.
