Watch A Bugatti Chiron Casually Blast From 0-400-0kmh

Bugatti has released footage of its record-setting run in the Chiron, with Juan Pablo Montoya managing to do 0-400-0kmh in under 42 seconds

We’ll have to wait until 2018 to see the Chiron at last better the top speed managed by the Veyron Super Sport, but this week Bugatti gave us an early treat to keep us interested. It involved former Formula 1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya doing 0-400-0kmh (0-249-0) in an astonishing 41.96 seconds aboard the Chiron, and now, there’s some video footage of the record-setting effort.

We’d prefer a raw interior shot rather than all the gloss and the thumping Hans Zimmer-style soundtrack seen in the video above, but still, it gives a good sense of just what the Chiron is capable of. Some of the flyby shots are extraordinary, and Montoya looks incredibly calm in the cockpit, having decided not to bother with racing overalls or a helmet. Hero.

Weird how this car is just perfectly road legal. No, your car is too low therefore not legal. Oh, you got a car being able to crack 400? No worries, drive on

Just look at the things 2017 gave us so far. Project 1, Valkyre, Chiron did 0-400-0 in under 42 seconds, we got the Demon, Tesla did 0-100 in 2.28, Rimac humiliated many hypercars on the drag strip, we got the new Type R, new Mustang that does 0-100 in less than 4 seconds and has magnetic suspension, we got the Ford GT, 720S, manual GT3, manual 911 GTS, Camaro ZL1 1LE… What a time to be a car guy

Either a second chiron as a camera car or a superbike. All modern 1000cc+ supersports can keep up with a hypercar up until ~170mph.

it’s probably a VERY fast superbike (i’ve seen this video uncut, this angle of your screenshot alone), and when it was getting close to 400, the camera wasn’t able to keep up and chiron started to gain on it.

The bike won’t protect you for rain, bugs nor offer you comfort (this one at least)

I hate overly dramatised videos like this. Just give me the raw footage.
