British Police Fined Bugatti Chiron Driver

The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ is the fastest production Bugatti model, that attracts attention wherever it appears. Because of its engine power and speed, drivers are often fined for speeding. However, one driver of a Bugatti Chiron was stopped by London police and fined for not having a front license plate.

Possession of both license plates (front and rear) in Europe is mandatory. The harmony on this car must not disturb any detail, not even the front license plate. This is clearly disagreed with by the London police, who for this reason stopped the new Bugatti with less than 400 kilometers on the odometer, and fined him 100 pounds (approximately 135 euros).

The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ is powered by a centrally located turbocharged 8-liter W16 engine with 1,600 hp (1,177 kW) and 1,180 lb-ft (1,600 Nm) of torque. Reaches 62 mph (100 km / h) in just 2.4 seconds with a maximum electronically limited speed of 273 mph (440 km / h). Power is transmitted to all wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

Only 30 examples of the Super Sport 300+ model have been produced, and the price of each example is € 3.2 million.

Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport tire problems

Tires are one of the most important, if not the most important, part of a car. We can say that the life of the driver depends on the quality of the tires, and Bugatti seems to have a serious problem with them. According to some information, Bugatti will withdraw the Chiron Pur Sport model because after 2,500 miles (4,000 km), damage (cracks) appear on the tires. This can be very dangerous for the driver, especially if the car can reach a top speed of 217 mph (350 km / h).

The tires that are causing the potential problem are the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R. The Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport uses 21-inch rims wrapped in 355/25 R21 (rear) tires. The company has not yet found a solution to this problem. The only thing left for vehicle owners is to change their tires after 2000 miles (3,200 km) or 18 months.

The Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport is powered by a quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W16 engine with 1,480 hp (1,103 kW) and 1,180 lb-ft (1600 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. With a weight of 4450 lb it reaches 60 mph in just 2.3 seconds.

Tire replacement will be free of charge until a solution is found or a tire that does not have this problem is produced.
