The Veyron 16।4 could knock the leaves off of trees as it powers to top speeds faster than any other street-legal production car in the world. This is the most powerful and fastest car period. And it boasts of the maximum horsepower to prove it.



Just for perspective, this carbon-fiber- bodied, aerodynamic machine has about twice the power that of a Chevrolet Corvette Z06, or a Dodge Viper SRT 10। With a computer-controlled , seven-speed direct shift gearbox, sequential-manual transmission power is propelled into all four wheels. Because the 2006 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 was not adjusted by an aftermarket tuner, it is the first street-legal vehicle to come directly from the factory.



When the Veyron 16.4 reaches a speed higher than 137 MPH, hydraulics will lower the car to a minimal 3.5 inches above the road and a rear wing will deploy.Both the wing and the hydraulics are essential in order to generate enough aerodynamic down-force to keep the car from flying away at such extreme speed.
