Bugatti Has Developed A V16 Engine! 

Bro doesn’t need eyes to see the world, just numbers

"THE NUMBERS M̶A̶S̶O̶N̶ JASON!!! WHAT DO THEY MEAN?"

A necessary precaution to silence the loud ignorant trolls who live by the Dunning Kruger Effect.

I laughed@@CyanRooper

Dudes like neo see's every thing in code

Totally caught me off guard 😂😂

snuck it in there 😂 guy’s a legend

I just love how saying "...nice" whenever the number 69 comes up has become such a widespread thing, it's hilarious.

Nice.

thats a very good number 😂

Nice

He's not a man of culture, he's a gentleman of culture.

Nice

Nice

Nice

I was like "jinx". 😁 I think we _all_ said it out loud at the same time 😂. His timing was perfect. And the nonchalant delivery was 🤌.

This doesn't aim to be a practical hypercar that can be used as a daily driver just as easily as a raceway rocket, though...

Not the same buyers target

@@alexluke84 Not the point. They did not want to be outdone at any cost.

Only thing left is to make a 4 seat vehicle..

​@@IAG369still the fastest car with more than 2people is McLaren Speedtail...delivered to all few years ago...Gemera is far from production...and Bugatti doesnt bother with 4seaters

😂😂

can't beat physics lol

8.3 V16 built by Cosworth.

He is ALWAYS two steps ahead

To be fair, the insider information given by the customers was also helpful.

exactly

unimaginable? there are 2000hp cars already.

​@pmudri no there's 2000hp machines not cars. This car has AC name another 2000hp car with AC

@@pmudri That's not what he meant. The experience is unimaginable for someone who has never driven a car that powerful.

@@pmudri I don’t think there are any 2000hp cars that have half of that power available instantaneously. I suppose any car with that much power is going to be acceleration limited by available traction tho.

This is not soup for you!

Hell, might as well work on it yourself at this point really

Laughed out loud when I read this 😂

Just imagine if it got combined with the Light Speed Transmission from Koenigsegg... If u wanna compare any transmission sounds, then I would say none can beat that one... So in my opinion the light speed transmission could be paired well with the massive thrust produced by the Bugatti V16... That's if these 2 can put their rivalries aside😅😂

You sure you can afford it bud?

Let's get this on a tray

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed

Ha - things worked out okay! Appreciate the kind words! :)

​@EngineeringExplained didn't rolls make this v16 engine back in the early 2000s they put it in a rolls in a film rowin Atkinson where he played a spy

You have never heard of Koenigsegg? 😅😅😅

@@pietskiet42-_ Yeah, building 3-cylinder cars... 🥱

Koenigsegg is

There are a lot of companies „keeping engineering marvels alive”. Everyone is just doing that in their own field. Maybe you are biased against that and are therefore not recgnizing it.

Or Cosworth @@pietskiet42-_

OOOOOO OOOOOO -/_/-/_/-/_/- OOOOOO OOOOOO

It'd be a lot easier to just buy two of these V16s and put them together. Play your cards right and you could make it a W32

at that point, we should use 2 engines only to power a generator, just like with the Belaz 75710

or rotate 3 of them to get a Radial-48

why not a 2 stroke opposed piston inline 12?

Yippie! I’m tired of some of these boring cars!

It can be tough when you're still living in an era where Bugatti owns VW Group. Try to update your dataset.

@@Dqtube You need to read and _understand_ what I wrote.

​@@Dqtubei thought VW owned Bugatti, and not the other way around

@@crackedemerald4930 VW group owned Bugatti, but they sold it to Rimac. There isn't a car company on this planet that could buy VW group.

Yep, exactly.

If I buy a rusted car with a dying engine for huge money and repair holes on chassis one by one when a place cracked. And repair engine only cylinder by cylinder so that it become expensive to maintain. Does it becomes a peacock tail?

@@inevespaceDoes it have a Bugatti badge and cost over a million to buy?

​@@inevespace Vintage cars are like that and some go for huge amounts of money

It was nearly impossible to get insurance to drive the Veyron or Konegg. Nobody will insure this for the road. Amazing engineering, complete showoff design, and useless for anything but "drive it" date on a closed track. Drive it a few laps then it's back to the shop for $100K in maintenance and new tires.

Did Mate give any sneak peeks off camera?

will you be driving one on the ring soon? 😲

tell Rimac to let you drive one in the green hell

Waiting for your ring lap ❤

Carefull you'll get called racist

@@snowgorilla9789mathist

U think ur better than us cuz ur white ?

I got a laugh out of that line too!

its the same tho. 16. Just in a V config.

During the early days of the Veyron's development they considered using an 18 cylinder engine before deciding "nah, that's too much" and so they decided on a far more sensible 16 cylinder engine instead.

​@@notsafefortorque9060 Classic VW over complicating a 16 cylinder.

​@@CyanRooper10 is the limit. Anything above that is over complicating.

17 please

@AudreyH48 maybe a road-legal Bolide complying with emissions and stuff?

It will be lenght of the Titanic probably

​@@XXXPUBLICENEMY sounds great to me, give me the land yacht

So short, this thing is gonna be a beast

@@XXXPUBLICENEMYI don’t think so it will be similar in length to chirons . Considering the teaser of car under cover which bugatti gave.

If your mounts start at the dash maybe

VAG parts in Stellantis???

​@@feedbackzaloopeuro beat gives access to powers unknown

It will as long as u gon drive it from the outside😂

There's always a chance!

Rare cars are still considered production vehicles even when they are made in single digit numbers.

I used to own a Cizeta Moroder V16T In Gran Turismo 4

It's contentious whether that's even a proper V16 - had two cranks, four cams, and central power shaft. It's more like 2 V8s in one block.

​@@tomkandyso they were bonkers enough to fit two engines in one car... Legendary!

It where 2 Lamborghini 4.0 V8 uraco engines and mated together the gearbox was in the middle ..

No idea why you are talking about turbos. The Cosworth V16 is naturally aspirated.

Also Me: Nice

@@v4skunk739 jason was comparing the W16 engines from the Veyron/Chiron

I see what they did there, they wanted not just forced induction, but rizz induction too....

twin oversized turboes are actualy quad turboes . i think imhop if you want the best output just use a good old fashoned charger

They're certainly knocking it out of park at the moment. Two amazing *emissions compliant* NA V12s for Aston Martin and Gordon Murray. Why not sling 4 more pots on for Bugatti?! It'd be interesting to see the inlet plenum in detail; I think that's where their combustion witchcraft is hidden.

I mean Cosworth making insane engines is kinda their MO

@@jamescorderjr1274 certainly is, but they're surely in a golden age right now. Makes me wonder what Ferrari will do, they'd love an engine like these (the V12 certainly) in one of their cars, but can they do it or would they too have to make the pilgrimage to Northampton and Cosworth's reception desk?

Are there other engine builders other than cosworth? It seems to me they're the only ones mentioned when people talk about dedicated engine builders

@@falcongamer5867 Because they're the best. Go google other ones.

A 430 inch engine making 185 horsepower is absolutely depressing

@@Prestiged_peck Not back then.

@@Prestiged_peck I'm fairly sure the straight-8 Duesenberg* was making 250+ (in NA form) the best part of a decade earlier. Mind you those 2 carbs in the Cadillac must have been working hard to supply 8 cylinders each! *also around 430 ci IIRC...

The Cadillac V16 wasn't so much about outright power, but supreme smoothness.

​@@The1trueDaveDusenberg was 420ci 6.9L 265hp N/A, it was DOHC, the 430ci Cadillac 135deg V16 was flat head and it made the same 185hp as the late 452ci OHV 45deg V16 and it started at only 165hp. The V16s were significantly less expensive, low rpm engines designed to effortlessly at low rpms move around a huge limousine with only 3 gears in a time where it was uncommon to travel faster than 70mph, more of a truck engine, where the Dusenberg was like a double Offenhouser I4 or an aero engine that ran at higher rpms and depended upon breathing to make the 265 and 300 gross HP while still being acceptably tractable down low in a heavy vehicle.

Thanks for the kind words!

This comment is 10/10, thank you! And appreciate the correction.

It's Ree-matz

I was trying to read that phonetically at first, then I double read it and realized "hold up, it's Croatian, I just have to sound it out like a heterosexual Slovenian" 😂

It's not "ree-match" it's "ree-mah-ts" as it doesn't have an accent on the c at the end

You haven't even watched it yet.

Thanks for watching!

⁠@@EngineeringExplained74.4 lb per liter is extremely solid. i’m curious to know as well if it indeed is naturally aspirated. you always do a phenomenal job breaking down the details.

shut up. dude got a like and heart-thingy and followed up afterwards. go weep,@@JSFGuy

Very happy to hear it, appreciate ya watching!

I believe what you are describing as a star engine is formally known as a radial engine. They were popular in aviation in the 1940s and 50s.

That also sound like something Christian would make and not Mate

Lately? Man that's always been their game.

@@Slizzo82 They haven't been represented anywhere I or most other car enthusiasts care about until recently. No Cosworth in Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bugatti, Porsche, et al. Whatever niche area you're referring to no one cares about.

@@NinjaRunningWild maybe not in your country but worldwide they have for a very long time (since at least the 80s)

Half way through and I'm lost!! Better start over!!

Thanks! I included the original comment because translations often aren't directly accurate, so appreciate you chiming in! Were you to guess, does the language sound affirmative or more like "no way"? Because I think even sarcastically you might say "oh wow now THAT would be cool ;)" in a way that's like hey please don't spill all the details just yet.

@@EngineeringExplained I added a separate comment, but in most cases it translates to something like a playful "nice try, although you're wrong". BTW your numbers were very conservative. 1000+1000 is much too low. They'll probably push for 2x electric 750hp each, plus 1500 combustion. They have to make a crazier car than Koenigsegg's ~2300 HP.

@@EngineeringExplained I had posted a follow-up, but it contained a link to another comment on Facebook, which might be why RU-vid mods (or even you) deleted it. Anyway, the gist of it was that Mate Rimac seems to be very stingy with responding to comments on his posts, and the response I had linked was one confirming the engine is N/A with a simple "Yep." to one of the commenters in an earlier post Rimac had made. The only other direct response he gave to commenters about any of this was along the lines of "all shall be revealed in due time". This all leads me to believe that the commenter you pointed out (Heinz Schenk) was onto something, and the snarky sarcastic handwave was probably a misdirection attempt. I can't be sure about the electric engine(s) power figure(s), but I do think you're just about correct; something tells me Bugatti-Rimac didn't go through the trouble of designing such an elaborate ICE powertrain just to have it play second fiddle to the electric subsystem - I doubt they'd want it overshadowed by the electric motors. @randomnik70 :: I doubt Jason overestimated the engine power, given how simple the intake manifolds and the valvetrain look; to get much more efficiency without traditional forced induction, they'd have to have an elaborate variable valve timing and duration system with some huge valves/ports and also probably rammed air (scooped from the front and inducted into the manifolds), as what Jason proposes is already pushing it in terms of volumetric efficiency.

Máté is a Hungarian name, as well.

Cheers, thanks for watching and appreciate the kind words!!

Chemistry has always been tough for me! I've got a battery video going on in the background, and the chemistry is ooof!

Haha, I know the feeling! For me it has always been statics and dynamics that have been challenging @@EngineeringExplained

So so warming to read - means a lot to me, thank you!!

3x Electric motors , BEAT any ICE Engine.

The full story is actually really interesting, if, you know... you're interested! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gC2-JKO0c2I.htmlsi=5oC5Sfz8dpUupw_a

What has the world come to..... Pistonless engines? Wtf man

@joe13c00l2 with engines that use pistons, there is a lot of reciprocating mass and with the omega 1 it spins in one direction, making it a more efficient motor. Thus more power for the same amount of work.

​@@joe13c00l2It's called a Wankel Rotary, not a piston in sight. 80 year old tech.

Shoot...I forgot about rotary engines...i always thought of the dorito as a piston tho...@@PrinceAlhorian

Turbines are technically piston less internal combustion engines too...

Oohh, I'd love that!

That'd be really cool. Those two have such a good dynamic

Been there, still wearing the T shirt. Our Honda Jazz has a 1.5L NA engine and hybrid assist! Sadly the software conspires to not unleash all 200bhp the plant could theoretically deploy. However, it is the first Jazz to be capable of wearing out its front tyres.

NA ICE alive everywhere. For example you can combine 16 450cc dirtbike engines and get same characteristics as guessed in the video. And engineers of this engines don't shoot for high hp nowadays. So it is quite basic tech (you can have 300hp/L nowadays if you want). Moreover, full EV is a dead end. We just don't have enough lithium to make batteries to electrify all cars. I reckon next 20-30 years will be hybrids until we find some alternative to Li based batteries.

imagine the crank wobble, such a long boi must wobble like crazy. i'm sure they thought of that

1 meter long😅

Crankshafts on my last ship were like 30' long. They can figure it out 😂

​@JoshuaTootell sure but it was probably also as wide as ur mom, that makes it less wobbly

Or Judd.

Was it a prodcution car though?

I mean 8 production vehicles is it really a production car ? Those early 20th century v16s has hundreds of examples

Rare cars are considered production vehicles even when they are made in single digit numbers.

Cadillac made a V16 in 1930. They made 4000 of them.

Nah not really ​@@CyanRooper they're not series production vehicles. More homologated concept cars

Cosworth v16 too.

Have a listen to the BRM V16

I think there needs to be another couple 9s

@@king_br0kcame to say what he said

Cry more. It’s a modern engineering marvel. Stop being envious and just appreciate a cool thing for existing.

More like 99.99999375% Assuming 500 people get one.
