Therefore it is not a surprise that Bugatti will be bringing yet another special iteration of the Veyron Grand Sport, this time called the Grand Sport Vitesse.
Just like everything that Bugatti does with the Veyron lately, the Grand Sport Vitesse is completely ridiculous and over-the-top. According to Bugatti, the model is considered the most powerful serial produced convertible in the world, boasting of a monstrous 16-cylinder engine that produces an output of 1,200 horsepower. In order to accommodate the increased pony output, Carefully Bugatti engineers modified the car’s chassis while also adding four enlarged turbochargers and intercoolers to the car’s overall technical equation. Together with the 1,200-horsepower output of the Grand Sport Vitesse, an astounding 885 lb/ft of torque is also delivered by the supercar. As far as performance numbers, Bugatti is keeping it tight-lipped until Geneva. But considering the kind of car we’re dealing with here, you can expect it to be in the vicinity of the record-setting Veyron Super Sport’s 0-62 mph time of 2.5 seconds and overall top speed of 279 mph.
And the price tag? Those numbers are Veyron-like, too, which is to say that they’ll sell of around €2 million, which is about $2.64 million based on current exchange rates.
