As a seasoned gamer with a penchant for virtual speed and precision, I must confess that witnessing this real-life speed spectacle left me utterly awestruck! The Bugatti W16 Mistral‘s record-breaking speed of 453.91 km/h (281 mph) is a testament to human ingenuity and the relentless pursuit of the extraordinary.
Bugatti yet again set a new standard in automotive annals as its W16 Mistral reached an unprecedented speed of 453.91 km/h (281 mph) for an open-top vehicle. This record-breaking achievement took place on November 9 at the ATP Automotive Testing Papenburg track in Germany, under the skilled guidance of Bugatti’s test driver and Le Mans winner, Andy Wallace.
The W16 Mistral carries forward Bugatti’s tradition of setting unprecedented speed records. Among its significant achievements are the Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse reaching 408.84 km/h (253 mph) in 2013 and the Chiron Super Sport 300+ attaining a closed-cockpit record speed of 490.48 km/h (304 mph) in 2019. The event was graced by Mate Rimac, CEO of Bugatti Rimac, along with other senior team members and the car’s owner. The custom-made $14.8 million USD W16 Mistral boasts a sleek black carbon exterior highlighted by “Jet Orange,” a tribute to Bugatti’s past speed-setting vehicles.
As a thrilled enthusiast, I had the incredible opportunity to personally witness the power of this magnificent vehicle during a high-speed chase with Wallace. This exceptional W16 Mistral has now become a prized addition to my esteemed collection of Bugattis, known as The Singh Collection, further cementing its place among the exclusive record cars.
