Bugatti has built the last Chiron

Bugatti revealed the final Chiron on Thursday, a super sports version called L'ultime.

It capped off a production run that lasted 7 years and resulted in a total of 500 cases built, a number that is highlighted by some design details on L'ultime.

Other special touches include exterior fades featuring two colors used for Chiron present at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show debut of the car, plus various locations that marked important events for Chiron with handwritten scripts on the sides of the car.

Since its Geneva debut, Bugatti has launched several additional Chiron variants, including the Supersport 300+, and its prototype broke the 300-mile wall in 2019. The run takes place on the Ehra-Lessien test track in Germany and, of course, this site is one of the places listed on L'ultime.

Bugatti eventually provided the public with 300 examples of the Supersport 30+, although the top speed is limited for safety reasons, Bugatti has not publicly stated what the limit is. The Super Sport version, which is the basis for L'ultime, is basically an added luxury, a more forgiving chassis and a Super Sport with a top speed capped at 273mph 300+. The maximum speed of a normal chiron is limited at 261mph.

The successor to Chiron was revealed on May 6, and it has been confirmed that it will be equipped with a hybrid powertrain equipped with a newly developed V-16 engine as an internal combustion engine. However, the new hypercar is not expected to start production until 2026.

In the meantime, Bugatti will build the planned 100 Mistral. The Roadster is the last recipient of Bugatti's quad turbocharged 8.0-liter W-16 engine that debuted on the Veyron. It is also planned a small car of Bolide truck cars, estimated at 40.
