90kg more downforce... at what speed?
Looking at the press release they say this, but again, no mention of speed:
"The total downforce generated is 456 kilograms, 90 kg more than on the Chiron."

5.8 Million?
What a massively overpriced car.

So it's a Chiron that lost it's top speed, barely gained any downforce and looks like Gemballa got their hands on it.
What a joke.

Meanwhile SRT Viper generate 1500kg of DF on 260 kmh...

*new "all examples pre-sold" hypercar thread*
*canned "would not buy" responses*
1.6 lat g claimed in press release. Pretty decent for a 4k (?) lbs luxo barge-ster. I suppose complaining about this car's features is like complaining a Rolex can't display emails or remind you when to pick up your dry cleaning.

This is what happens when Lamborghini's former CEO joins Bugatti. Remember Centenario or Veneno? They were more exotic versions of Aventador. Same goes for Divo

Chiron is 4400, this is 77 Ibs lighter so 4323 Ibs

Because they're a unit of weight?

But why not use a better one?

Is 77.19 firkins better?
How about 30260981.17 grains?
Or 2.16 short tons?
1702152.6 2x4 stud Lego bricks?
161 average 2 year old children?

I like the crusade against imperial units.
I also like this car: I just can't stand Chiron's headlights (and a couple of other things...) and this car fixed it, even though such details don't look sooo special for a 5.8M car or elegant enough for a Bugatti.
Overall, this looks like an improvement over the Chiron to my eyes, just like the mentioned Centenario over the Aventador.

I'm sure you can divide by 2.2 if it bothers you that much
Would you prefer they list curb weight in Newtons?
