Supercar Blondie’s Alex Hirschi had the chance to get behind the wheel of the Bugatti Divo, and it is even better than we thought.
Based on the Chiron and named after a French racing driver, the Divo can generate more downforce and more G-force as well.
Under the hood, you’ll find Bugatti’s iconic quad-turbocharged W16, putting out close to 1,500 horsepower.
However, the Divo is actually 35 kg lighter than the Chiron Sport.
It is more exclusive, too.
Only 40 units were built.
Each of the 40 available cars were sold ahead of the public debut to Chiron owners.
But, as you can see from the video and the pictures, it was worth it.
