Bugatti Veyron Braking

The Veyron's brakes use cross drilled, radially vented carbon fibre reinforced silicon carbide (C/SiC) composite discs, manufactured by SGL Carbon, which have a much greater resistance to brake fade when compared with conventional cast iron discs. The lightweight aluminium alloy monobloc brake calipers are made by AP Racing; the fronts have eight titanium pistons and the rear calipers have six pistons. Bugatti claims maximum deceleration of 1.3 G on road tyres. As an added safety feature, in the event of brake failure, an anti-lock braking system (ABS) has also been installed on the handbrake.

Prototypes have been subjected to repeated 1.0 G braking from 312 km/h (194 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph) without fade. With the car's acceleration from 80 km/h (50 mph) to 312 km/h (194 mph), that test can be performed every 22 seconds. At speeds above 200 km/h (120 mph), the rear wing also acts as an airbrake, snapping to a 55-degree angle in 0.4 seconds once brakes are applied, providing an additional 0.68 G (4.9 m/s²) of deceleration (equivalent to the stopping power of an ordinary hatchback).



Bugatti claims the Veyron will brake from 400 km/h (250 mph) to a standstill in less than 10 seconds, though in this time you will have covered a third of a mile.

Bugatti will receive 1200 h.p.

Apparently, engineers of company Bugatti have started creation of the new version of the super car Veyron. And, the new model will possess the engine capacity not 1001 h.p., as now, but 1200 h.p. It was mentioned in the lecture at the Viennese technical university by Ferdinand Pih, the former chairman Volkswagen, and nowadays the head of the supervisory board of concern (speak, Pih became the initiator of creation the most expensive car in world Bugatti Veyron).

However it is not known yet, which car will receive the 1200-strong power unit. Versions here only two. Or the new engine will put under a cowl of present generation Veyron, or now there is a creation of essentially new coupe which becomes more, more powerfully and, certainly, is more expensive than present model.

The second variant seems to be more truthful. After all in Bugatti for a long time already said that all will be assembled only 300 Veyron, and all of them are already sold. Therefore it is necessary for engineers Bugatti to create new model which will help to be fixed the companies at top of world car industry.

Management Bugatti is ready to give «green light» to a new super sedan which will appear in the market in three years. This car will receive name Bugatti 16C Galibier. It is supposed that Bugatti will construct only 300 similar super sedans, each of which will cost about 1,5 million euros. The car will be equipped 800 h.p. eight-litre W-shaped 16-cylinder engine from Veyron.
