Bugatti's Chiron that released in 2016, was such a hit that the team is building a bigger, better and more powerful model for the fans. The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport is due to be quicker, more comfortable, and much quicker than the original Chiron. Hence its name, it is set to be even sportier too.
But, will it be better than its close rivals? From the likes of other supercar brands like Porsche and SSC Aero, we are going to share how it compares in comparison to the newest and fastest models from those manufacturers.
Let's dive in and reveal how the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport compares to its rivals.
Versatility And Comfort Of The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport
Bugatti's Chiron Super Sport is an ultimate grand tourer that oozes luxury, power, and comfort. It is known to be quite a versatile Chiron in comparison to previous years, thanks to its double-sided navigation and extended body. This allows drivers to ride more comfortably and with ease.
In comparison, its rivals like the Porsche 911 GT1 are not quite as comfortable. The 911 GT1's engine is less than half the size, and its top speed is much slower, yet it cannot offer space and comfort? The Porsche is much smaller, so you would expect it to be more powerful, if anything. However, Bugatti seems to have taken the first place prize for comfort and power in one.
It's Extremely Quick
The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport is not shy under the hood. It features an 8.0-liter Quad Turbo W16 and a 7-speed drag-shift gearbox. This gearbox is electronically controlled, which is great for smooth gear changes and ensures that the driver will experience no loss of torque.
The Chiron Super Sport's top speed is 273 mph, which is achieved thanks to its longer and smoother body. Its aerodynamics are better than ever, which helps the supercar glide through the air and hit such high speeds.
In comparison, the SSC Ultimate Aero has a top speed of 253 mph. Although this is incredibly fast and enough to blow anyone's minds, it isn't faster than the Chiron Super Sport. In 2013, the SSC model did win the top speed competition. However, Bugatti is known for its greatness and competition, so they did everything they could for their Super Sport to take over that position.
In terms of its 0 to 60 mph time, the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport can cross the line in under 3 seconds and can top 180 mph in less than 12 seconds. When you compare that to the likes of the Koenigsegg Gemera, the Swedish supercar released in 2020, it is slower. But, it is only slower by less than a second. thus, the new Bugatti Chiron Super Sport comes close to being in the top fastest cars in the world.
The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Is Much More Exclusive Than Its Rivals
Bugatti's Chiron Super Sport doesn't just boast sheer luxury, but it also boasts ultimate exclusivity thanks to its minimal production. The team is due to produce only 60 units, which is incredibly tight for such a popular car. In comparison, Porsche released 900 models of the 918 Spyders, which at the time, everyone thought was minuscule. In comparison to the Chiron Super Sport, that's a lot.
Thus, getting your hands on the likes of a Bugatti Chiron Super Sport would be pretty difficult (if not impossible). They retail for around $4 million, which is a lot of money. But, you do get a lot of vehicles, luxury, and power to pay in return. Although it might not be everyone's budget, we bet it pleases most people to look at it. The Chiron Super Sport from Bugatti sure is impressively beautiful both to look at and in performance. In comparison to the likes of Porsche and other rival brands, it is way more rare and difficult to get your hands on. Thus, much more exclusive and elite.
Moreover, if you want to get a supercar that won't break the bank forever, the Super Sport may not be your answer. It is exceedingly more expensive than most other rivals. It is double the price of the Koenigsegg Gemera, which retails for $1.7 million. Plus, it is almost ten times more expensive than the likes of the SSC Ultimate Aero, which retails for $665,000.
In our opinion, we think it is a shame that Bugatti is due to only release 60 models of the Chiron Super Sport. Although it sells for an extremely sky-high price, we bet that there are more than 60 people out there that want to get their hands on one. It is an incredible supercar, one that will certainly satisfy the racers among us.
