Bugatti confirms Chiron: Bugatti's brief for Veyron replacement is 'to make the best significantly better'

摘要

Bugatti has confirmed its long-awaited successor to the Veyron will be called Chiron. It will be revealed at the Geneva motor show next March. The Chiron, which has already been spotted testing in prototype form, gets its name from Louis Chiron, a grand prix racer who rose to prominence in the 1920s and 1930s while racing for Bugatti. His achievements include winning the 1931 French Grand Prix in a Bugatti Type 51. His career was interrupted by the war, but he went on to race for marques such as Alfa Romeo, Mercedes-Benz and Maserati.
