If this is really what I know about a little bit more than posted here, it is going to be über-mindblowing, if you say that just mindblowing is an understatement

Today

During a recent interview Big Boss Piëch confirmed that the next Bugatti will have 1200 hp. With that amount of power the new supercar will hit a top speed of more than 260mph, making it again the fastest car in the world. Along with a slight bump in output, the new super car should also be a bit lighter, by about 300 pounds, which will not only make it more efficient at speed, but will bring the 2.5 second 0 to 60 MPH time down a few tenths.

Top Speed

A car as powerful as the Bugatti Veyron can do a great many things. Crest the 400 km/h mark. Burn through fuel and rubber faster than a jumbo jet on take-off with the parking brake engaged. But how about stop time? Maybe if you lay down all that twist in the opposite direction off the earth's rotation. Or bring back a rumor that first reared its head some four years ago.

We're talking about the long-rumored 1,200-horsepower "super Veyron." Its arrival has been anticipated for years, and now accounts from Germany are bringing it back to life. According to the reports, Professor Ferdinand Piëch – the former Volkswagen chairman, Porsche heir and father of the Veyron – recently delivered a lecture at the Vienna University of Technology, wherein he briefly alluded to the emergence of the 1,200-hp Veyron, but revealed no further details.

That the quad-turbocharged, sixteen-cylinder Bugatti engine is capable of more than its stated output of 987 horsepower is no secret. And if such a car is in the works, surely Piëch would be among the few in the world who'd know about it, even if he's not sitting in the big seat these days. With the existing Veyron's production run winding to a close, if there were ever a time to make it happen, surely that time is approaching at Veyron-esque velocity.

Anybody knows what the weight will be of this 1200 HP monster? The Veyron is already quite heavy with 1800 kg, only a lighter car would be really quicker, especially around a circuit!

Rumors are that weight reduction will take place, I do not know how significant it will be, but still. Do not expect just few minor changes, it will be amazing masterpiece, Bugatti will transfer some lessons learned from regular Veyron to this car. Member H50 said, I can second this - this car is set to rewrite the meaning of speed and fast acceleration.

300 pounds lighter makes it 1650 kgs. (approx).

There are some ways to lose weight, like ditching the aluminium deposit which they now lay on the carbon for cosmetic reasons, get rid of electric windows, radio, airco, posh interior, hell, even the passenger seat can leave.

^^^ According to my information you are not right. Again all we can do is wait and see.

""According to the latest reports, it appears that Ferdinand Piëch a.k.a. former Volkswagen chairman confirmed the fact that there will be a new supercar from Bugatti!

What it is more interesting is that this new vehicle will be even more powerful and will have around 1200 hp, as the 1001 hp found on the current Bugatti Veyron were not enough. For those who don’t know the Veyron is powered by a sixteen cylinder engine featuring four turbochargers and there are big chances to see a modified version of this engine on the new car. And regarding the new car there are big chances to see it, because if there is someone who knowns about it, then Ferdinand Piëch is that person! ""

yes we have to wait and see :wink:

But I wonder if Bugatti can build a "super" Veyron and the Galibier at the sme time in Molsheim...

Veyronfan · **Joined:** Mon Nov 17, 2008 7:56 am **Posts:** 576

I guess that all Veyron coupe production run is spoken for already and going end soon enough. Only after that new supercar could go into production to run together with Grand Sport and possibly Galibier starting from 2011. Factory expansion in Molsheim is also rumored to start from 2011-2012 depending on global circumstances.

It is so hard to wait when you have only few hints what it could be, but these hints indicate that it will be something above amazing. Member H50 always brings here only credible information about Bugatti, so we have to wait for more news in coming months as he said.

Any updates about this 1200 hp Bugatti? It is very interesting if Bugatti will bring it to the market as special Veyron or as a new model.
