The era of the W16 engine is coming to an end at Bugatti, but not before one last record for the quad-turbo 8.0 liter monster. Built into the Mistral, this 1,600 hp engine helped make the Mistral the fastest open-top production car in history.
More precisely, he achieved 453.91 km/h on the Papenburg test track in Germany, with Bugatti driver Andy Wallace behind the wheel.
Bugatti will make only 99 units of the Mistral, with this Mistral World Record Car being a unique example.
Its striking Jet Orange accents recall both Veyron record-breaking cars, the Veyron 16.4 Super Sport and the Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse. And the Chiron also had a black and orange theme.
Bugatti organized a record-breaking drive on November 9 in the presence of the proud owner of the car as well as Mate Rimac, CEO of Bugatti Rimac.
