Is 0.1 of a second worth crowing about? Yes, if you’re Bugatti – The Australian Financial Review
One metric says more than any other in the world of performance cars – the 0-100km/h time. For the French supercar maker, 2.4 seconds was too slow.
Its the first number quoted for every performance model: the time it takes to go from rest to 100km/h. And Bugatti is claiming a record for a production car with 2.3 seconds.
The Pur Sport is the latest version of the 16-cylinder Chiron coupé. According to Bugatti, The 8-litre W16 engine with 1500hp and 1600 newton metres of torque revs 200rpm higher and now achieves its rated output between 6700 and 6900 revs Thanks to a 15 per cent shorter transmission ratio
