B
ugatti's inimitable
Veyron. It's a world
record breaker, a
quintessential icon
of automotive design, and the
first hyper sports car of the
modern age. e Veyron's
penchant for hitting speeds in
excess of 250mph, and stealthy
ability to launch itself from 9
to 100 in a mere 2.5 seconds
from zero to 100 in a mere
2.5 seconds all played major
roles in Bugatti reaching its
own celestial heights fifteen
years ago when they debuted
the beauty. To this day, the
Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is still
lauded as one of the greatest
technological challenges in the
automotive industry.
Bugatti produced three
hundred Veyron 16.4 coupés
and 150 roadsters - including
(very) special models and
limited editions - over a
10-year period in the French
town of Molsheim. Achim
Anscheidt, Bugatti's Design
Director, looks back on his six
personal favorites.
