description Bugatti Veyron Overview
Built by Bugatti between 2005 and 2015, the Veyron combined extreme road-car performance with a highly complex engineering package. Its quad-turbocharged W16 engine and all-wheel-drive system supported speeds exceeding 250 mph in the appropriate versions and conditions. Managing heat and stability was as important to the project as producing engine power. The body incorporates aerodynamic systems that respond to different driving demands, illustrating how its performance depends on the whole vehicle rather than the engine alone.
A substantial cabin and grand touring character distinguish it from a stripped-out track-focused machine. The Veyron suits collectors and enthusiasts interested in the engineering challenges of very high speed. Its place in automotive history rests on bringing those capabilities into a production road car while retaining an emphasis on comfort.
