Bugatti has produced and delivered 80 cars in the last year

After recently announcing that it produced 4/5 of the total of 500 planned examples of the Bugatti Chiron, Bugatti announced that last year was a record year when it comes to car production. The company managed to produce and deliver 80 cars.

Among the produced hypercars with a W16 engine last year was the 400th Chiron, as well as the last ten copies of the Chiron Super Sport 300+. All ten examples of the Bugatti Centodieci were also produced and delivered, as were all examples of the Chiron and Chiron Sport models for European customers. Many of these cars are modified according to the wishes of the customers.

When it comes to this year, from Molsheim Atelier comes a new, perhaps the most controversial edition of the Chiron, the Chiron Profilée. This unique car will be offered at auction on February 1, 2023 in Paris. Also, the production and delivery of the remaining 100 Chirons will continue, and the configuration of the Mistral and Bolide models is also expected to begin.

Chiron Profilée will be powered by an 8.0-liter quad-turbo W16 engine with 1,480 hp (1,103 kW) and 1,180 lb-ft (1,600 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 2.3 seconds with a top speed of 380 km/h, which is 30 km/h more than the Chiron Pur Sport (350 km/h).

Venom F5 Revolution is the new beast on the road

All car enthusiasts know that the Venom F5 is one of the most powerful and fastest cars in the world. Now at the end of the week, Hennessey will unveil the limited edition of the ultra sports model, Venom F5 Revolution.

Compared to the standard F5, the Revolution is equipped with better-tuned adaptive suspension elements and aerodynamic body solutions with which the F5 Revolution will have significantly better cornering grip. Under the hood is a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 1,817 hp (1,336 kW) and 1,193 lb-ft (1,617 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 7-speed automatic gearbox.

The F5 Revolution weighs only 1,360 kilograms, which is 25 kg less than the Venom F5. Hennessey says that the multi-adjustable rear spoiler, at a speed of 400 km/h, ensures 635 kilograms of pressure on the rear axle. Handling will also be helped by the larger diameter of the ultra-light rims with tires for use only on the track.

The car will be produced in only 24 examples of which, as the company from Texas claims, most of them have been sold. The price of each F5 Revolution is $2.7 million.

2022 was the best year for Rolls-Royce

At the beginning of the year, each company sums up its business results from the previous year. Some made a small profit, some made a loss, but there are also those that can boast of record sales. One of them is Rolls-Royce, which delivered over 6,000 vehicles worldwide in the past year.

Rolls-Royce Down

Since it was founded in 1904, Rolls-Royce has never achieved a sales result like in 2022, when a total of 6,021 vehicles were delivered. The Middle East, Asia-Pacific and Europe, as well as the United States, recorded the highest sales growth. The United States remained the largest market for the British brand, while the Chinese market has now become the second largest for Rolls-Royce. The Goodwood-based company also achieved record sales in the UK and Germany.

Maybe the number of 6k vehicles sold for the year is low, but if we consider that customers paid an average of $500,000 for their new car, we can say that Rolls-Royce enjoyed the demand and sales results.

When it comes to individual sales, the Cullinan maintained its position as the brand’s best-selling model, followed by the Ghost, which was the best-selling model in the Asia-Pacific region. Rolls-Royce is also proud to say that demand for the Spectre, its first all-electric production model, is currently exceeding its expectations, but there is no detailed information on the number of reservations made so far. The first deliveries of the ultra-luxury EV to customers are scheduled for the fourth quarter of this year.

Also, 2021 was a successful year for Rolls-Royce. That year, the British company sold 5,586 cars.
