Bugatti Supersport With 1200hp: Truth Or Fiction?

Whispers of planned 264mph Veyron circle the internet

---

A 1200hp Bugatti Veyron could be revealed this summer, if rumours circling the ‘webosphere’ are to be believed.

French website BugattiPassion.com and Dutch mag Auto Week both suggest that the new car will be called the Supersport, following in the traditions of the Type 55 from the 1930s and the EB110 from the 1990s.

The car will be revealed at the Pebble Beach concours in California this August, although September’s Paris show has also been mooted as a venue for the official unveiling.

Word is that just 30 examples of the Supersport will be built (as opposed to 300 coupes and 150 Grand Sport convertibles), and that the car will be capable of a 264mph top speed and of sprinting to 62mph from rest in a scarcely believable 2.2secs.

Ahh yes this is what the world/middle east needs. The Veyron is far too common these days.
