Digital World Premiere: BUGATTI Chiron Super Sport

[Music] ladies and gentlemen welcome to bugatti you know here in the headquarter of malzheim is the place where all the magic originates today i want to show you something special but before i come to this car let me show you what we've gotten here within the following three and a half years we have presented unique and exclusive cars the devo successfully reinvented bugatti's long-standing coach building tradition for the modern era with its futuristic design and its different personality and driving performance an homage to the era of etre and john bugatti it is the true definition of automotive or couture the ideal ground tourism the shintoyeshi inspired by bugatti's italian intermezzo at campo elliano a modern interpretation of the eb 110 projecting the fascination of the 90s into the modern age we also took care of the chiron family at its core the shia is the perfect symbiosis of apparent opposites that no other car manages to combine excellence and comfort materiality and easiness to drive together with absolute performance but there's a wide range of performance a spectrum and we decided to develop the chiron into the two extremes of the spectrum on one side the chironpus pole a vehicle geared towards maximal lateral acceleration an uncompromised and pure driving machine with less weight more downforce and even sportier chassis sensational acceleration and extraordinarily precise handling on the other side the xiaom super sport 300 plus smashing the 300 mile barrier as the first road going car ever less drag without losing down force at high speeds for maximum longitudinal acceleration and top speed the last three years have been also the most successful ones and financial terms we achieved the best financial year of the company's modern history not only once but three years in a row our financial strategy has worked out we are financially rock solid and it allowed us to create produce and deliver more exciting unique cars than ever before in the history of bugatti being at the pinnacle of the automotive industry requires a team of dedicated experts acting with teamwork passion and know-how for example in our atelier where know-how and craftsmanship go into every single bugatti indeed the production of each bugatti is a matter of teamwork processes are going hand in hand and skills completing each other today we have the most diverse lineup in the modern industry we are used to having a huge diversity as not one bugatti is like another we tackle the challenge with determination and enthusiasm each new project is a challenge and we are all proud to see the projects come on the life and onto the streets like our latest model which we are about to present the supersport name was always reserved for the most outstanding performance oriented driving machines producing a famous line of ancestors with the type 55 super sport bugatti produced its first super sport in 1932 the grand tourism combined thoroughbred racing car technology with the comfort of a coupe for the first time the bugatti ab110 super sport in the 90s set new standards in terms of technology and performance and it also set a large a list of speed records reaching a top speed of 351 kilometer power the varan super sport broke the production car speed record with 431 kilometer per hour again making a bugatti the fastest production car in the world and in summer 2019 we pushed the limits once more with the xiron supersport 300 plus we were the first to break the 300 miles per hour barrier reaching an incredible speed of 490 kilometers per hour these records were not only achieved by the cars but also by the drivers drivers who drove the record but also worked intensively on the development to shape the characters and capabilities of those iconic models drivers like andy wallace pierre henry rafanel and loris bikoki for me the super sport has been always the top of the line i mean i agree but even with the eb-110 apparently 30 years ago in 1991 we did 351 kph and the car was really really really fast at that time you think you were fast loris but i mean when you have a look to that car we went to 431 kilometer average okay but guys as fast as you were in these cars what about the car over there 490 kilometers an hour that's fast that's super fast handy but you have to admit it's also a special edition we couldn't leave the xi'an family without a super sport so we set ourselves the task to develop a car next to the limited edition world record car the super sport is visually and technically inspired by the record-breaking 300 plus a real gifted [Music] character [Music] is [Music] foreign [Music] so [Music] foreign deeply [Music] [Music] with the xi'an super sport we are following our long tradition of combining extreme high speeds with absolute excellence the super sport is the ultimate gran turismo offering a whole new dimension of the bugatti experience the xiong super sport concentrates the essence of what we have learned and developed over the past few years with substantial improvements in all dimensions design aerodynamics power delivery and longitudinal performance optimized for brutal performance in total control and comfort drag and down force in perfect harmony to improve performance and stability even beyond 420 kilometers per hour now i invite our chief designer ahim anshad to tell us how design and performance go hand in hand welcome thank you merci stefan the shiva super sport is from a stylistic point of view very much a straightforward example of our bugatti design philosophy form following performance or maybe better in this case form following longitudinal performance so let me take you to a handful of areas on this car behind me where you can actually observe that when you look towards the front of the car you notice the slightly angrier looking chiron and you also notice those kind of voluptuous cheeks left and right in the corners i think they give quite a sexy automotive stance into the frontal appearance but they also serve a special technical function we call them air curtains and they control the air flow around the wheel arch and it's extremely important to get those right because every mistake that is made here is pretty much uh aerodynamic catastrophe then along the side of the car so that's why these are very purpose driven and very important for the function of the super sport looking on top of the fender you see these peculiar venting holes now for cars that go above 400 kilometers an hour it is crucial and important to keep a neutral balance between downforce and lift around the front axle and that's exactly what those holes are controlling but as you can also see it is a nice little romantic quote to the eb 110 and when we go a little bit further towards the side you see a design of our new ultralight aluminum wheel especially created for the super sport but now i'd like to take you towards the rear end of the car where i think that is the most significant and important area of the super sport the stylistic heart and soul is without a doubt it's character with a long tail sculpture now as you can see we added some 200 millimeter to the original rear end of the chiron and this is leading to a smaller and reduced aerodynamic tear-off end of this car and this is creating a much better drag coefficient and that is vital to go with speeds above 400 kilometers per hour now downforce then is less created with a huge wing on top of the car but much more with the diffuser area and therefore the exhaust manifold was redesigned all the way towards the outside of a maximum performance diffuser creating these four vertical pots that you see behind the car and they are actually one of my favorite details so in a nutshell the chiron super sports beauty lies really within the raw authentic translation of its pure technical aesthetics and they are in balance to something that is stylistically inherent to all modern day bugattis a distinct precious value of its proportional elegance [Music] ladies and gentlemen together as a team here in malzheim and around the world we create the most extraordinary experience for bugatti drivers and fans of the brand and bugatti never stand still our driving heart will lead us to ever new and exciting destinations in the meantime the audience i hope we are able to give you something to look forward to and that you will be able to experience the bugatti brand and the chiron super sport up close in the future to see it to feel it and now also to hear it viv lamarck [Music] you
