You’ve seen the Grand Sport. You’ve seen the Super Sport. Now meet the Super Grand Sport.
Actually, Bugatti calls its latest version of the Veyron the Vitesse – French for “speed” – but it is essentially a combination of the best traits of the Grand Sport and Super Sport models. The Grand Sport, as you may recall, is the convertible (or targa) version of the Alsatian supercar, while the Super Sport is the more powerful, record-breaking version.
As expected, Molsheim has taken the 1,200-horsepower version of the Veyron’s engine – all eight liters, sixteen cylinders, four turbochargers and (while we’re counting) ten radiators of it – from the Super Sport and combined it with the open-top body-style of the Grand Sport. The result is what Bugatti calls (and we have every reason to believe is indeed) the most powerful production roadster of all time, and with time, it will undoubtedly prove the fastest too.
