Bugatti Gets More Than 100 Orders for New Chiron Supercar
- 8 years ago
Volkswagen AG's Bugatti has received more than 100 orders for the new Chiron supercar, which the brand vows will be the fastest and most luxurious sports car in the world.
Bugatti, which hasn't had a car since the Veyron sold out in February, will unveil the new model at the Geneva motor show in March.
The Chiron's orders are equivalent to more than one-fifth the limited production run of its predecessor, which debuted in 2005.
"Our order book is already well filled," Bugatti chief Wolfgang Duerheimer said Monday in a statement.
"And that's despite the fact that our customers haven't had the chance to experience the car's fantastic performance yet."
Volkswagen is pushing ahead with the new Bugatti amid a cost-cutting push prompted by its admission to selling vehicles that polluted the environment more than allowed.
