Walk at Bugatti Center with Bugatti Centodieci, Bugatti Chiron and Bugatti EB110. Exceptional design and vast power have been the hallmark features of Bugatti vehicles for around 110 years. The French manufacturer of hyper sports cars now consistently pursues this path further with the new special-edition Centodieci. In addition, Bugatti is echoing its recent history with an exclusive and extraordinary small series.
The Bugatti Centodieci has now been parked in a special climate chamber for two days. Following tests conducted at room temperature and heat tests at up to 50 degrees Celsius, Bugatti engineers are now taking the chamber down to sub-zero temperatures. The Centodieci has been subjected to minus 20 degrees for twelve hours now – waiting for even the smallest titanium screw and the very last carbon part to reach the specified temperature.Bugatti engineers spend a week checking various parts and components of the Centodieci in the climate chamber. The heat and cold tests performed in the climate chamber are therefore of fundamental importance to engineers as they are the only way to ensure that the Centodieci will function safely at all times – even if customers will perhaps never expose their vehicles to such extreme climate conditions.One of the many cold tests conducted concerns the side windows. When it comes to measuring side window excessive force limitation, even a small production run of ten examples have to comply with all the internal standards and legal requirements.
The name of the new Icona evokes that legendary 1-2-3 finish and pays homage to the Ferrari sports prototypes that helped earn the marque its unparalleled motor sport status. The Daytona SP3, presented today at the Mugello Circuit during the 2021 Ferrari Finali Mondiali, is a limited edition that joins the Icona series which debuted in 2018 with the Ferrari Monza SP1 and SP2.The Daytona SP3’s design is a harmonious interplay of contrasts, sublimely sculptural, voluptuous surfaces alternating with the kind of sharper lines that revealed the burgeoning importance of aerodynamics in the design of racers such as the 330 P4, 350 Can-Am and 512 S. The bold choice of a ‘Targa’ body with a removable hard top was also inspired by the sports prototype world: consequently, the Daytona SP3 not only delivers exhilarating driving pleasure but also usable performance.From a technical perspective, the Daytona SP3 takes its inspiration from the sophisticated engineering solutions already adopted in racing the 1960s: today as back then, maximum performance was achieved by working on the aforementioned three fundamental areas.The Daytona SP3 sports a naturally-aspirated V12, mid-rear-mounted in typical racing car style. Undisputedly the most iconic of all Maranello’s engines, this power unit delivers 840 cv – making it the most powerful engine ever built by Ferrari – along with 697 Nm of torque and maximum revs of 9500 rpm.
