The 16-cylinder engine in the Super Sport 300+, although largely the same as the one in the Chiron, is tuned to produce 1600 horsepower, 100 more than the base car. (It’s worth noting that these are European horsepower measurements. Horsepower figures, as calculated in the US, are slightly lower.)
To optimize aerodynamics, the Super Sport 300+ has a longer body than the standard Chiron. The exhaust pipes have also been repositioned to improve air flow past the back of the car.
As unveiled, the car’s black color isn’t paint but visible carbon fiber except for the bright orange stripes. Customers can get the car in any color they like, though.
These 30 road cars won’t be exactly like the one Bugatti test driver Andy Wallace drove on the test track when the car hit 305 miles an hour, though. For one thing, they will have two seats instead of one, and they won’t have the full crash-protecting roll cage Wallace’s car had.
