Bugatti now operates in the same Alsace region, now part of France, in which the original Bugattis were made. Bugatti Veyron agaisnt the Hennessey Viper Venom 1000TT would be a good match to see which would win a 8L W16 quad-turbo or a 8.

Veyron is intended to be a comfortable two-seater that can be driven long distances; several of the 11 prototypes built so far have completed more than 50,000 miles, each following the same grueling test regimen as that of regular VW models. It is named after French racing driver Pierre Veyron, who won the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1939 while racing for the original Bugatti firm. The Veyron’s head designer was Hartmut Warkuss with exterior designed by Jozef Kabaň of Volkswagen rather than Giorgetto Giugiaro of ItalDesign who had handled the three prior Bugatti concepts too. Neumann was replaced as Bugatti president by Thomas Bscher in December 2003, and substantial modifications were made to the Veyron under the guidance of former VW engineer, Bugatti Engineering head Wolfgang Schreiber.

In the case of the Veyron, it will be several years before Volkswagen will be able to see if their investment in developing ground-breaking technology has paid off. The Veyron can be driven by full automatic transmission. The Bugatti Veyron has a total of 10 radiators. In May 2005, a prototype Veyron tested at a Volkswagen track near Wolfsburg, Germany, and recorded an electronically limited top speed of 400 km/h (249 mph). The Veyron is the quickest production car to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) with a proven time of 2. [2] Bugatti claims the Veyron will brake from 400 km/h (250 mph) to a standstill in less than 10 seconds. Gordon Murray, designer of the McLaren F1 (which for many years was the fastest production car ever built) said the following about the Bugatti Veyron in UK auto magazine evo during its development period:.

First seen in the 1999 Bentley Hunaudieres concept car, the W16 would get four turbochargers, producing a quoted 1001 horsepower (see engine section for details on the power output). The Veyron features a W16 engine—16 cylinders in 4 banks of 4 cylinders, or the equivalent of two narrow-angle V8 engines mated in a “W” configuration. The engine is fed by four turbochargers, and it displaces 8. Wolfgang Schreiber was appointed as technical director and manager of Bugatti Engineering. Some experience has to be used on the gear box, the first and second gear slightly �hang� at high engine speed otherwise they can be changed quickly�. Neumann was replaced as Bugatti president by Thomas Bscher in December of 2003, and substantial modifications were made to the Veyron under the guidance of former VW engineer, Bugatti Engineering head Wolfgang Schreiber. SpecificationsThe Veyron features a W16 engine—16 cylinders in 4 banks of 4 cylinders, or the equivalent of two narrow-angle V8 engines mated in a vee configuration. The twin intake snorkels mounted on the roof also help funnel cool air to the mid-mounted 16-litre engine, and while practical, they add a great deal of visual impact too. The most impressive aspect of the new Bugatti supercar has to be the 16-cylinder engine, which is located behind the driver (mid-mount) for a low centre of gravity, thusly improving turn-in and general handling characteristics. Wolfgang Schreiber, serving as technical director and simultaneously as head of �Bugatti Engineering GmbH� in Wolfsburg, where all of the development work for the new Bugatti is co-ordinated and, in part, carried out. The engine has four turbo chargers, a dry sump lubrication system and a giant radiator so as to handle the amount of heat that comes from all that power.
