I agree and disagree. The price of every iconic car has skyrocketed because there's to much electronic money around and the gap between rich and poor has become medieval, so it's argueably harder than ever before to actually obtain your dreamcar. As far as technology and safety goes we're at the pinnacle, but performance wise a Mclaren F1 is still faster than this 3million$ VW bug around a track. Not that anyone is ever going to take one of these to a track (except Chris Harris and maybe 1-2 other journalists). So it's engineering at its' finest (luxury/technology/safety wise not performance) combined with the worst situation in the car market and performance wise powerful lightweight cars still dominate and Aston Martin is going to prove that with their Valkyrie. As a performance enthusiast I'd say that 99,9% of the new cars are just garbage.
+アマ McLaren F1 requires skills to full enjoy this performance meaning it was essentially a race car for road considering the lack of assisting system that would become mandated compared to its competitions i.e. Ferrari F50, Bugatti EB110 to name a few. The road version was handful at cornering meaning it was made for high speed in mind. Veyron was to show what manufacturers at that time thought were impossible: 1000hp capable of doing 400 km/h and easy to drive like a normal car. Chiron took what makes Veyron standing out and pushed it further as a two tons hyper grand touring that can corner quicker as described by the review. In the history of racing, Audi was able to pull that trick with their heavy AWD 80 sedan before it was banned from the touring race competition for unfair advantage. In other word, do not underestimate Chiron cornering.
I subscribe to this channel because of his Veyron review... This review almost makes me want to unsubscribe... It lacks the passion and personality that was in the Veyron review. ...disappointed.
it's a guy from Cnet on cars/ Roadshow... since he's managing editor... I guess he said ok Alex sorry I'm going! If you watched Cnet on cars, they always talked about Xcars before it became Carfection. Now we know that if Xcar change to Carfection (why?) it's still part of Cnet/Roadshow.
James Fonda he works for Cnet which is the American side of Carfection. I do have to say that I hate how he says Chiron, but I do like Tim as a presenter. I do agree that Alex would have made this review sound ethereal.
So I guess Top Gear won't be the first after all, unlike what Chris Harris said last Sunday. On the other hand, I'm sure he has a lot more interesting things to say and I expect him to push this car to its limits, unlike this presenter, who seems to have been a little overwhelmed by the car.
Top Gear is shot way before hand, so Chris Harris was probably the first one to drive it. The clips in studio are recorded like one week before while all the car review stuff is shot threw out the year leading to the series.
Trent Huettl I just hope the stupid clones don't start showing up Those people are fucking pathetic and should kill themselves if they think they're fooling anyone
Chukuman this isn't mankinds most incredible advancement It's Bugatti's most incredible advancement. Mankind's most incredible advancement can be anything else from phones to rockets or airplanes. Whereas the Chiron isn't even a hybrid...
I tend to agree with a large portion of the comments on here. There is a degree of class and style that Alex exudes that leaves you dreaming about even the most mundane aspects of a car for days after you've watched the video. That 'special' sauce was just missing for me here - although still compared to a vast majority of other videos on the net, it was a great one ! The guys with the cameras and the guys in editing really know what they're doing ! Well done
Not the guy to review this. He rushes and doesn't have breaks. There's no calmness in his presentation to such a review. Seeing this is the first video review of this car, this reviewers doesn't give Carfection XCarFilms any justice. Alex is who we needed.
THIS car seems to say 'Classic Bugatti is Back!" Ahead of the curve styling harks back to company origins, power is 'over the top' AND the interior is something special. This is an exemplary touring car as well as something to pay track fees and study fees to drive all out.
this is the first real review of any modern bugatti. I've not seen one anyway,a little more in depth would of been even better but still congratulations
i never was a bugatti fan (except the really old ones) but i was in munich and ffound the bugatti store. (i didn't even know they had stores) and i saw the chiron with my own eyes. and was even allowed to sit in it. They guy working there is awesome. but the car in live... it looks just so much better then on video. and litteraly everything inside and outside of the car is perfect. i would daily that car. they say it is like a golf if you want.
Amazing automobile!! But where is Alex?? Alex is the only reason I came to Carfection.. its really disappointing to not seeing him doing the review.. 😓
Ninja Chipmunk it whont physics deny that... Engineering explained actually did a video where he roughly calculates how much more power it would need. pity though since theb speedo goes to 500km/h or ~308 in black and white :D on the other Hand the Veyron had a cw value like a house and they say this is mouch better. I have no actual number but if it where to be seriously good like .28 or something it could happen! But sadly cooling 1500hp adds a lot of drag
one of the most anticipated reviews on this channel and yet the production quality is lower compared to their other reviews. And also you should put your best guy to review cars like this.
That's correct because it's named after Louis Chiron a racing driver from Monaco and that's how his name is pronounced. Louis Chiron (1899 - 1979) was the oldest man ever to have raced in Formula 1 having taken 6th place in the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix at the age of 55. ( The Veyron was also named after a racing driver, Pierre Veyron.) Chiron won the 1931 Monaco Grand Prix the only driver from Monaco ever to win his home race. He also won the French Grand Prix twice, the Marseille GP, the Spanish GP, the Spa 24 hours and finished 7th in the 1929 Indianapolis 500.
It's not an 8 speed dual clutch but the old Ricardo built 7 speed dual clutch reinforced and with some changes in it. Only Porsche has got an 8 speed dual clutch for the moment
Now that's a honorable successor to the Veyron! But the review was really short, basic and non emotional for the privilege they had to be the 1st ones reviewing this masterpiece of engineering. Come one guys!! This is the Chiron!
I can't believe the first video review of the Chiron featured someone I've never heard of before... also, he reviewed this car basically like one would review any AMG Merc, not one of the most powerful and fastest cars in the world.
I love the look of this car, I wouldn't like to own one, I just like to know that someone can afford to buy them. From what I understand the Bug V would empty its fuel tank in 12 minutes and the tyres where only really reliable for one 250+ mph run and at $5,000 x 4 that makes the fuel seem cheap. :)
