Great celebration of the automotive world is held annually in Monterey, California. In 2009, he saw some of the vehicles most elegant, luxurious and valuable ever produced in over 100 years of motoring and the Bugatti play a significant role. The night before the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, the highlight of the event brand, known for impeccable Automotive Solutions, aesthetics and driving dynamics The second model was unveiled to the world - a unique removable roof the new Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport.
The main challenge in developing the new Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport with removable roof resulted from the unique structure of the fixed-roof Bugatti Veyron. Optimum combination of rigidity and lightweight engineering ensures the monocoque passenger compartment of the original model is extremely strong while weighing an absolute minimum - is key to the vehicle structure. As the roof is an integral part of this, it meant the elimination of the load paths had to be completely redesigned to maintain the rigidity of the vehicle and the collision, and to provide additional protection from side impacts and rolling.
Consequently, a self-supporting has regained some of the side skirts and transmission tunnel. B-pillars have a cross-stiffened using a carbon fiber support, and the central carbon plate is placed under the transmission tunnel to ensure the vehicle suffers from less torsional flexing than any other roadster.
In the case of an accident, this transfers the load from A to B-pillar, thereby dissipating impact energy. Furthermore, the two redesigned air intakes of the 16-cylinder mid-engine now feature 10-inch wide carbon fiber elements to offer protection in case of car deployed.
With moisture-resistant, leather backstitched, has a range of new equipment features has been added to the interior, including a camera with 2.7-inch screen in the rearview mirror, and the system "Puccini" sound with digital signal processor.
When the roof is closed, the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport can reach 407 kmh, while speeds of up to 360 km / h are possible with the roof. In case of rain, an innovative folding roof stored in the trunk can be opened like an umbrella at any time. When this folding roof is in place, the car can travel up to 130 km / h.
