A Nod to Historic Triumphs
The Chiron Pur Sport Grand Prix Edition is a bespoke creation, part of Bugatti’s Sur Mesure customization program. This edition is notably inspired by Louis Chiron's 1931 victory at the French Grand Prix in the Type 51. The exterior design reflects this heritage, featuring a striking 'Blanc' mono-white color complemented by 'Grand Prix Red' accents. The fading 'EB' logo pattern on the fenders and the number '32' emblazoned on the side are direct tributes to this historic win.
Limited Edition Rarity
Bugatti has always been synonymous with exclusivity. True to form, only three units of the Chiron Pur Sport will be created under this personalization program, with the Grand Prix version being the second in this ultra-limited series. The first model made its debut in December 2021, and the latest is destined for a client in Singapore.
Mechanical Marvels Unchanged
Underneath its bespoke exterior, the Grand Prix variant maintains the mechanical integrity of the standard Chiron Pur Sport. The car is equipped with a 3D-printed titanium exhaust tip, magnesium wheels, a new transmission system, lighter disc brakes, and a non-hydraulic fixed rear wing, distinguishing it from the standard Chiron.
Enhanced Performance and Handling
The Pur Sport variant boasts a reengineered suspension system, tailored to its reduced weight. Additionally, it rides on Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, enhancing its grip and performance on the road. At its heart is the formidable 8.0-litre W16 engine, delivering an astounding 1,479 bhp and 1,600 Nm of torque. The engine’s rev limit is increased to 6,900 rpm, and the car features a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission with shorter gear ratios. The inclusion of the new ESC Sport+ mode allows for controlled drifting, adding an edge to its already thrilling performance.
Conclusion
Bugatti’s Chiron Pur Sport Grand Prix Edition is more than just a hypercar; it's a harmonious blend of history, innovation, and unmatched luxury. As it takes its place in the echelons of automotive masterpieces, it stands as a symbol of Bugatti's unrelenting pursuit of excellence and an embodiment of automotive art.
