Shanghai, April 21 (Gasgoo.com) The super sports brand Bugatti Veyron, which
was unveiled to Chinese customers at the Beijing auto show yesterday, had
one unit sold two hours after its China debut.

 

According to Bugatti's CEO Franz-Josef Paefgen, the customer already made an
order for the 25 mln yuan ($3.6 mln) Bugatti Veyron and will go to Bugatti's
headquarters in Europe himself to pick out the model and its color.

 

The Bugatti brand is one of the automotive industry's oldest marques, and
the Bugatti Veyron car is claimed to be the fastest production car to ever
hit the road.

 

To start with, the long bodied Bugatti, which measures a 4.5 meters and a
massive 2.0 meters wide, gets slightly re-jigged headlights and a few extra
air intake apertures, such as those located just behind the front wheels.

 

It is equipped with a killer 16-cylinder engine and a new 7-speed, all-wheel
drive semi-manual transmission. In the real world, Bugatti Veyron can
accelerate to 100km/h from rest in 2.9 seconds

 

Veyron will hit 300km/h in 14.0 seconds flat and can cruise at 400km/h with
ease. The car is electronically limited to 400km/h (248 mph), though if
de-restricted the 8.0-litre coupe would be capable of at least 450km/h.
