For all the Bugatti Chiron’s spectacular figures, I don’t typically consider it as, you recognize, a automotive. It would as nicely be a racehorse for all its relevance to my life. Extra a plaything for the wealthy than a method of transportation, I discover it arduous to fathom what’s happening with the automotive’s lineup.
Take, as an illustration, the Chiron Pur Sport. What can a few levels of camber, a number of kilos much less weight, and a few stiffer springs do within the face of 1,479 hp (1,500 PS/1,103 kW)?
Nicely, rather a lot, it seems – no less than in keeping with Carwow’s Mat Watson, who simply printed his evaluation of the Chiron Pur Sport and finds it to be a formidable automotive.
“Already, even once you’re driving alongside slowly, it feels a bit extra intense than the [Chiron] Tremendous Sport,” he says. “You’ve received that firmer suspension – it’s not uncomfortable however you simply really feel the bumps ever so barely extra.”

And though all of Bugatti’s weight saving efforts have amounted to simply 50 kg (110 lbs) in weight reductions (the identical quantity of weight that the fixed-rear wing provides), their work has served a objective. With much less soundproofing, the automotive sounds extra like a race automotive and with the stiffer suspension, it feels somewhat extra thrilling, too.
The added camber, in the meantime, makes it extra keen to show in and the lighter steering makes the entire automotive really feel a lot lighter than, say, the Chiron Tremendous Sport. The modified gear ratios, in the meantime, make it a a lot quicker accelerating automotive, all of which mixes to make it really feel far more thrilling than different Chirons.
“When it comes to simply [explitives] and giggles, that is the Chiron to go for,” says Watson. “It looks like a light-weight sports activities automotive, not a very nuts eight-liter, 16-cylinder, quad-turbo, two-tonne, four-wheel-drive monster. It simply rearranges your mind this factor.”
