Bugatti debuted the Chiron in 2016 as successor to the Veyron, often considered the world’s first hypercar. Like the Veyron, it has an innovative “W” engine and lightweight carbon-fiber monocoque. Designed by ArtCenter graduate Sasha Selipanov, it blends aggressive aerodynamics with visual accents from the historic Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic. The Chiron Pur Sport, a more extreme version of the Chiron Sport, enhances its handling with a front splitter, large vents, and X-shaped wing inspired by Starfighter Jets from the Star Wars film series.
