2012 Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse -Following the success of the Veyron 16.4 Super Sport,
Bugatti did not have to wait long before it received the first inquiries about
an open-top version of the Grand Sport that could also deliver 882 kW (1,200
hp). "We were instantly electrified by the idea of transferring the power
of the Super Sport to the Grand Sport, which previously delivered a maximum of
1,001 hp, and thus taking the roadster to a new level," says Wolfgang
Dürheimer. The President of Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. continues: "Our
team has managed to transfer the world's most powerful car engine to the
open-top sports car while taking all vehicle dynamics and aerodynamic
parameters into consideration. We are proud to present the fastest roadster
ever at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show with the world premiere of the 1.200 hp
Grand Sport Vitesse."
Dynamics in figures
The new Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse boasts a remarkable maximum torque of 1,500 Nm (at 3,000-5,000 rpm) from the 7.9-litre capacity of its W16 engine. The maximum output (1.200 hp) is reached at 6.400 rpm. These figures allow the car to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) from standing in unbelievable 2.6 seconds. The top speed of 410 km/h (255 mph) makes the four-wheel drive (like all Veyrons) Grand Sport Vitesse the fastest production roadster ever. The maximum speed is reached on closed tracks with special safety precautions. In "normal" handling mode, the Grand Sport Vitesse is electronically limited to 375 km/h (233 mph).
Optimized drive system
The 199 hp increase over the Grand Sport has been mainly
achieved by using four larger turbochargers with new intercoolers. Furthermore,
Bugatti has extensively reinforced all drivetrain components in order to safely
transfer the immense forces at all times. The gearing of the seven-speed
dual-clutch gearbox (DSG) in particular has been adapted to the new
requirements. In this context, as on the Super Sport, Bugatti has also modified
the air ducting in the area of the drivetrain. As a consequence of the larger
turbochargers and the overall reduced back pressure, it was even possible to
reduce the fuel consumption slightly despite the increased output. The fuel
system, with a four-pump tank, has been taken from the Super Sport.
