This Bugatti seems to have no headlights

This Evo article from last Thursday is a total mess.
They are mismatching concept claims with pre-production stats all over the place. Like calling the official announced dry weight a curb weight, or brining back the old downforce numbers of the concept.
They say things like "Bolide's 1,600 PS is 100 PS more powerful than the most potent iteration of the W16 so far", totally forgetting that Chiron Super Sport also has 1,600 PS. They are describing turbofan wheel covers (absent on the production version), 400 mm section slick tires (nah), or dimples on the roof scoop (concept idea).
Seriously, don't even bother clicking it. Very little effort went into writing this garbage.

Topgear test drives a Bugatti Bolide. I found a few interesting things: 1. The curb weight is about 1600kg - the same as my previous estimate. 3. The seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox abandons the automatic gearbox. 4. The maximum output power of W16 is 1600 horsepower. To save weight, sequential turbocharging was abandoned. Therefore, engine speed to reach 1,600 Nm of torque requires lag from 2,200 rpm to 4,000 rpm. 5. The maximum speed is 380kph in low resistance mode and 365kph in high resistance mode. (This should be the first time the official announced the real top speed)
 
The speed after that even exceeded 1000, which made me doubt that the unit of speed was thousands of feet. I don't understand why Bugatti changed the speedometer.
What time in the video is it?
