Bugatti recently hosted a customer drive event around Paris, France, during which they allowed their clients to check out the Chiron Sport and Chiron Pur Sport first hand.
The two hypercars turned the Abbaye des Vaux de Cernay into a veritable catwalk. The complex, with certain parts established in the 11th century, is a former monastery that was turned into a hotel, and lies in the Rambouillet forest, around 50 km (31 miles) southwest of the capital city.
Review: Driving A $3.2 Million, 1,479 HP Bugatti Chiron Sport Can Be A Life-Changing Experience
“For myself personally, it’s a particular pleasure to be part of this Bugatti Paris event and showcase the Chiron Sport and Chiron Pur Sport to our customers”, said the brand’s Europe director, Guy Caquelin. “After long abstinence and merely digital presentations, aficionados of our brand finally have the chance here to test and experience the two hyper sports cars. Customers need to be able to see, drive and feel Bugatti vehicles so they can internalize their unique and special character.”
Launched back in 2018 as a sportier alternative to the regular Chiron, the Chiron Sport boasts weight savings and firmer running gear for improved handling and agility.
The Chiron Pur Sport, on the other hand, takes the experience to the next level by featuring a lot of mods for even more thrills behind the wheel. A limited production model of 60 units, each one priced at €3 million (equal to ~$3.5 million), excluding tax, it can sprint to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.3 seconds and to 200 km/h (124 mph) in 5.9 seconds, aided by the famous 8.0-liter quad-turbo W16 engine that produces 1,500 PS (1,479 HP / 1,103 kW) and 1,600 Nm (1,180 lb-ft) of torque.
