Hot! Bugatti Teases Mysterious New Model With X-Shaped Taillights

[Gianclaudio]

0,67 is (aprox) 2/3

Perhaps the new car weights 2/3 of a regular Chiron?

 

[constalation]

Maybe its Bugatti's LMH entry? I guess that's just wishful thinking.

 

[WBarnes]

Maybe its 0,67 Kg / Hp ratio.
1005Kg/1500hp

Maybe it's the price in $bn.

Or Autocar may have it - kW/kg.

 

[SNB]

Sincerely hope they take this thing to LeMans and battle the SCG 007 and the Toyota, would make for great spectator sport.

Would love that but no way VW is spending money on Bugatti to go racing.

It seems to be a hybrid - no engine sound in the first part of the video but in the second part, there is.

Maybe it is a reskinned 919!

 

[Dilusha]

Now it had slicks on that video. So if it's a track only car I'd be disappointed because most manufacturers won't allow owners to take them home. That's a deal-breaker to me.

 

[A.P.]

It's like SCV12 for Lamborghini, except it still got Chiron platform as a base.

 

[klier]

Road legal or track only? It looks like Bugatti CLK GTR equivalent.

Looks like a Le Mans racer to be honest.

My thought too.

Why not? They don't do it with any brand in this class. They should, as more brands are needed.

Or maybe Rimac has something to do with this.......

I doubt Rimac are capable of dealing with hybrids.

I doubt Rimac are capable of dealing with hybrids.

I doubt they have anything to do with it, but I remember these Rimac/Bugatti rumors and this car obviously is a hybrid...

 

[Rolf]

1200kg....1800HP = 0.67kg/HP

Or the drivers dick is 2/3 its normal size after driving this car lol.

Still heavy....

 

[TopspeedPT]

 

[Bucketslash11]

still looks like a W16

 

[martinbo]

still looks like a W16

It's clearly the same powertrain.

 

[Ozy]

I knew it

 

[WBarnes]

Still heavy....

I would be surprised if they managed to keep the AWD drivetrain and produce something that weighs 1330kg. Theoretically the engine could be taken out to 9.6L since I remember a VW with a 3.6L VR6 a while back.

0,67 drag coefficent

 

[Bridster]

You guys are very optimistic with the weight. The engine alone is 436kg and the gearbox is 124kg. Then the diff + propshaft capable of handling 1600 Nm of torque would be at least another 40kg. So that's 600kg already. Then add the chassis and the body which on car this big would be at least 200kg (made from CF), and wheels with suspension which would be at least another 200kg combined and you are already at 1000kg. It's gonna be a minor miracle if they get the weight under 1500kg. I would guess more like 1600kg kerb. Which is still 400kg (or more) weight saving compared to the Chiron, mind you. Not even sure removing so much weight from a car is possible, even if the interior is completely race car stripped.
