How can the Buggati Chiron beat the Koenigsegg Agera RS 278mph verified top speed record? I know Buggati have yet to give the definitive top speed because its electronically limited to 261mph.
However, Koenigsegg Agera RS accelerates faster and is lighter. No way can the Chiron beat that.
>electronically limited to 261mph
Literally why? Who decided that 261 mph is a reasonable speed to let people travel but any higher than that is just too much?
Doesn't the Chiron have like at least 300 or 400 more HP?
Do you trust the average arab prince to do the inspections that Bugatti does when they do a top speed run?
Nigga they die driving on two wheels anyway or get mauled by their lions who give a fuck?
I doubt Bugatti's even going to try until they develop an SS version at this point honestly. Koenigsegg btfo them pretty hard
Awd sucks power & keonigegg is more aerodynamic.
Tyres cant keep up with almost 450km/h+
There's almost nowhere in the world to determine this useless fact.
>Buggati
It's Bugatti
>However, Koenigsegg Agera RS accelerates faster and is lighter.
Makes absolutely no difference in a top speed run, especially on VW/Bugattis own test track with that insane straight.
>Literally why? Who decided
Like that other user said, 261 mph is likely the "lowest common denominator" for when a part (or in this case parts) fail(s) in what is deemed too short of a timespan. You could probably run the tyres at 290 mph but only for, say, thirty seconds to a minute before they disintegrate. Nobody wants to see that. If it wasn't the tyres then it would be the wheel bearings or the transmission or the fuel pumps or the.... you get the idea. The car has to be limited to the speed that the "least durable" part of it can take, so to speak.
This probably.
260 is inadequate, 262 is absurd.
>awd sucks
on Egg's 0-400-0 run they took over 4 seconds to 100kmph
still bizarre to me.
>they took over 4 seconds to 100kmph
Wasn't that on the shitty cold war airfield surface that was less smooth than a teenager's face?
>it's limited to 420 but can do so much more!!!@!@#!@
kek doubt bugattis sold to consumers can even to 400. nobody is going to take one over 20 so why bother giving them the real thing? and this is VAG we are talking about so you know it's real
2.7 MILLIION for a vag shitskinbox with fucking HALDEX
>Like its predecessor, the Veyron, it has a carbon fibre body structure, independent suspension and a Haldex AWD system
How cheap can one company be?
You know Haldex is just a brand name right? It's not the same system they use in their shitboxes.
When selling a 2.7 milion car, you best be naming that system something else than an econobox """"""""""""awd"""""""""" system from a fucking golf.
Why would they do that? It's not like "Haldex" is printed on the car. Anyone who's in the market for a Chiron isn't going to care who the manufacturer of the AWD system is.
The Aventador uses a Haldex system as well. Vastly different from the one in the Chiron, of course, just as they are both vastly different from the ones found in Porsches, Volkswagens, Audis, Volvos, Fords, Mazdas, Landrovers etc. etc.
>yanks can't into the metric system
261 mph = 420kmh
Ya stupid fuckin yanks. BTFO once again by a tripfag.
ahhhhh ha ha ha ha oh you wanna go faster then 420km/h wholly shit are you like god or some shit...
fuck off religious bastard
Probably Michelin again,,they set the top speed for the Veyron.
didnt some kraut mememachine run 440 with few simple mods
>tyres
>km
Stop, it's annoying
And weighs
6 0 0
0
0
kg more
>caring that much about a fucking NAME
This is why badge engineering is so effective in burgerland. Mercedes doesn't even sell their Vito van there out of fear of people thinking the brand suddenly isn't prestigious enough
Yes, it was on a dusty Nevada highway
Both would get their asses kicked at the Texas Mile by cars that cost 1/10 as much.
Not the 0-400-0, that was on some neglected cold war airfield in Sweden I think
