Willys-Overland vice president of engineering Delmar G. Roos designed the Willys Quad. Ford developed its Model (General Purpose) GP, known as Pygmies, which was powered by an adapted Ford / Ferguson tractor. Each company has a prototype of the army in the summer of 1940 and obtained permission to build 70 test vehicles.


The army took possession of these vehicles in November 1940 at Camp Holabird, Md. Each of the three designs exceeded the Army specifications of £ 1,300., But the army realized that the limit is too low and raised for next round of vehicles.

The army has launched the next round of contracts in March 1941. Bantam BRC was to produce 40 vehicles 1500 model, Ford would build 1,500 modified and improved GP Pygmies, and Willys would build 1,500 Quads. Testing and evaluation led to the selection Army Willys vehicle as the standard.


Since then, most of the Bantam, Ford GP products were sent to England and Russia as part of the Lend-Lease. United Kingdom Ford vehicle was popularly known as the "Blitz Buggy."

With modifications and improvements, the Willys Quad became the MA, and later the MB. But the army, and the world became known as the Jeep ®.

Saturday, 14 am - Official Bugatti driver Pierre Henri Raphanel puts his helmet and gloves, pull the belt tight, while engineers check the car again, the tire pressure, temperature, all systems go. Then, orange, black, Bugatti Veyron Super Sport through the light, the time from now will be made within an hour the car to go from south to north, then in the opposite direction. No one but the driver is allowed to touch the car during this time. Tensions. A few minutes later we heard the sound left a jumbo starting closest to us. First, we see the headlights of the Veyron, then we can recognize the shape of the car, a strong wooosh .... and stripes on top Raphanel speed ahead. The tours leave GPS-427, 933 km / h. Now, the same procedure in the opposite direction. This time the car reached 434.211 km / h.


Since the average speed in excess of Representatives, "TUV" and Guinness delivers value 431072 kmh (268 mph). It 'also hit the Bugatti design team as a surprise.

"We got that we could reach an average of 425 km / h." Bugatti chief engineer, Dr. Wolfgang Schreiber, "but the conditions today were perfect, and may be even more."

The highlight of the series Veyron: Bugatti Veyron Super Sport

Had a model has been particularly popular or very successful in racing, Ettore Bugatti customers often pushed to the master to unravel the engine a few more horses for their future car. Bugatti Automobiles SAS has been in a similar situation where their existing customers prompted the company to design not only their second model optically different, but also to create a version with a more sporty driving experience and more extreme. The result is a car with a unique high performance of 1200 hp (882 kW) offers drivers had a whole new dimension of excitement, with a maximum torque of 1500 Nm and a top speed limited to 415 km / h (for protect the bridge), but technical Bugatti Veyron Super Sport car is identical to the record. The first five Bugatti Veyron Super Sport to move away from the assembly line will be a special series of their own, with the same configuration as the car land speed record.


Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is the result of further development of exclusive Classic 1001 HP Bugatti Veyron 16.4, was launched in 2005. This model offers an impressive array of features, such as the transmission speed dual-clutch seven curves high precision driving performance and excellent stability under braking and acceleration.

Ongoing work in extreme performance swings lead to new conclusions constants, which allowed engineers to develop Bugatti Veyron in a direction where the driver can reach new dimensions. Any change is designed to produce a more powerful car for a tour flexible. Extended four turbochargers and larger heat exchangers were used to increase the power of 16-cylinder engine and the chassis has been completely redesigned to maintain security in extreme speed - with the head slightly raised and the trip spring, stronger stabilizer and new shock absorbers with a complex architecture originally developed for racing cars. This gives much more precise steering wheels and the car as a whole. The lateral acceleration up to 1.4 G, and better interaction between the tire and the drive system intelligent all-wheel offering Bugatti Veyron Supersport perfect handling and powerful acceleration in Newton-meters out of 1500 corner.


The system is developed to improve the aerodynamic efficiency and to maintain a perfect balance in every situation, when a new fiber structure of all carbon dioxide emissions monocoque ensures maximum torsional rigidity and passive safety features - low weight. The skin is completely of carbon fiber composites, and the new Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is available in 100 cents clearlacquered exposed carbon on request.

External dynamics

Every detail of this car, not only the use of advanced technology of motor sport back to the pioneering spirit of founder Ettore Bugatti. This brilliant designer of a family of artists, and his philosophy has always been the perfect combination of mechanical and outer beauty. This spirit is alive and well in the business, and the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is totally incomparable with all the external changes used to persuade a higher performance car.

The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport is flat, elongated silhouette is immediately recognizable. The 16-cylinder engine gets its two NACA air duct integrated into the roof instead of balls on the engine.
