Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport hits 267.81 mph!

The super cool Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport is officially the fastest production car in the world after shattering the record set by the SSC Ultimate Aero (257mph) by hitting 267.81 mph!

Bugatti sent its official test driver Pierre Henri Raphanel out on Volkswagen's Ehra-Lessian high-speed oval with the first Bugatti Veyron Super Sports to see just what it could do. With representatives of the Guinness book of records and German Technical Inspection Agency (TÜV) on hand, Raphanel made passes around the big oval in both directions.

With output bumped up from 1,001 horsepower to 1,200 horsepower, torque swelling to 1,106 pound-feet and a revised aerodynamic kit, Raphanel managed runs of 265.9 and 269.8 mph for an average terminal velocity of 267.81 mph and a new world record for a production car.
