Bugatti has just officially introduced an extremely cool and “cool” Concept model, which is the Bugatti Bolide Concept with top-notch design, power and technology, and perhaps no other car model before. can now be compared. We invite you to admire this masterpiece from Bugatti!
Bugatti Bolide Concept is the answer to the question “What if?” – What would happen if Bugatti built a super light car, and combined it with the company’s 8.0L W16 engine? With the Bolide Concept, Bugatti has created a race-oriented hypercar that will be the most powerful and fastest Bugatti ever!
The Bugatti Bolide Concept is the most “hardcore” car I’ve ever known, not only is it the fastest and lightest car in the history of the French supercar company – reaching a ratio of nearly 1.5 horsepower/kg. . This is thanks to the combination of a turbocharged 8.0L W16 engine with 1,850 horsepower and a vehicle weight of only 1,240kg, super light for a hypercar like this. The Bugatti Bolide achieves numbers almost on par with Formula 1 racing cars, while its top speed is over 500 km/h. Bugatti Bolide takes only 3 minutes and 7 seconds to complete a Le Mans lap and 5 minutes and 23 seconds to complete a Nurburgring lap.
The heart of the Buagtti Bolide Concept is the 8.0L W16 engine with 1,850 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 1,850 Nm of torque at the 2,000-7,025 rpm range, extremely huge numbers. Bugatti designed a special drive system for use on the track and optimized the engine and transmission for higher rpm. In addition, eliminating the limitation of the air intake and exhaust system to help the car achieve maximum responsiveness is also a notable detail. This Bolide Concept can accelerate from 0-100km/h in 2.17 seconds and up to 500km/h in just about 18 seconds, that’s enough for you to see how terrible this car is!
The four new turbochargers are equipped with optimized impellers to increase compressed air pressure at higher rpm. To achieve optimal lubrication even under extremely high centrifugal forces, the oil passage, oil pressure, check valve, baffle, oil tank, oil sump and crankcase design have also been refined. tune and optimize. At the same time, the transmission system has also been refined to significantly reduce weight. In short, this is an engine in which the most quintessential of today’s mechanical engineering technology is applied to it!
To achieve a dry weight of 1,240kg for this car, Buagtti’s engineering team applied all the best when it comes to materials and production processes, including what is currently possible and what is currently possible. also in the future. All Bolide screws and pins are made entirely of titanium. In addition, all parts are hollow, have the thinnest walls and are made of the highest grade aerospace grade titanium alloy. They are produced using a special 3D printer that can print extremely thin parts with a maximum thickness of 0.5mm. However, they are extremely durable and hard and can withstand compression forces of up to 1,250N/mm2.
The transmission components are made from a combination of ultra-strong carbon fiber and 3D printed titanium, which can withstand continuous operating temperatures of up to 260 degrees Celsius. Another example, the front diffuser blades and the latter is made from ultra-light and super-hard titanium. They weigh only 600g in the front and 325g in the back, numbers that are truly alarming. I’ll just briefly outline the main idea, but if I were to sit down and list all the technologies applied on this car, it would be too enlightening!
