Time is running out to buy a Bugatti Chiron

By topgear, 23 January 2020

If you’ve spent the four years since the Bugatti Chiron was revealed down the back of your sofa, desperately hunting for the £2.5million (RM13.34million) needed to actually buy one, we have good news – you’ve got a bit more time.

Bugatti says the Chiron will remain in production until the end of 2021, by which time all 500 cars will have been built. That’s the plan, anyway – Bugatti is still accepting orders for new-build Chirons as just shy of 100 cars are still without owners. So if you’re on the fence, you still have a bit of time, but best get your order in sharpish.  

There are, of course, many other cars you could buy for your £2.5million (RM13.34million). A Pagani or Koenigsegg, for example (or a new Dacia Sandero for every day of the year). Or one of these new-fangled electric hypercars, which promise Chiron-like speed without the emissions.

But if all you’re worried about is emissions, know this: this year Bugatti will “retroactively make its locations worldwide and the kilometres driven by Bugatti vehicles CO2-neutral from 2018”. In other words, all miles driven by Chirons since 2018 will be carbon offset. Certainly a step in the right direction.

Fancy a Chiron? And if so, how would you spec yours?
