Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 'Red Dragon' Looks Exquisite With Red-Tinted Carbon Fiber Finish

Bugatti has revealed its latest Chiron Super Sport bespoke build, and it's nothing short of sensational. Dubbed the 'Red Dragon,' this exquisite hypercar sports a stunning red-colored carbon fiber finish, which Bugatti takes no shortcuts with.

The gorgeous spec of the Red Dragon includes subtle Nocturne exterior accents, while black-painted lightweight five-spoke wheels complement the subtle Super Sport stripes and conceal the red brake calipers.

Inside, Blanc (white) seats and door panels are paired with handstitched Hot Spur contrasting and Beluga Black carpets, matching the dash and door tops and creating a gorgeously athletic contrast.

This isn't the first time Bugatti has incorporated red-tinted carbon fiber; it was utilized on the Pur Sport Grand Prix revealed last year.

The integrated headrests sport contrasting 'Chiron Super Sport' embroidery, while the rear-view mirror has been color-matched to the exterior hue. Overall, we think it's one of the loveliest Super Sports we've seen so far, and there have been some jaw-droppers in recent months, including the most bespoke car Bugatti has ever made.

While the engine cover may be finished in a bespoke manner, the engine itself is still the familiar 8.0-liter W16 quad-turbo motor that produces a mind-boggling 1,578 horsepower and a tire-destroying 1,180 lb-ft of torque. That graceful rear end (9.84 inches longer than a regular Chiron) contributes to more excellent stability at high speeds — a 40% reduction in aerodynamic stall. As a result, the Super Sport only runs out of steam at 273 mph.

In cases like this one, customers work with the Sur Mesure department to specify their cars to their exact tastes. One wealthy couple went so far as to commission matching Super Sports, but whoever hasn't already gotten in on the action no longer can, as all Chirons are spoken for.

However, you could always shop for one on the secondhand market if you're not too picky. We recently reported on an even rarer Super Sport 300+, estimated to sell for as much as $5.5 million. Bugatti will produce no more than 80 Super Sports, but Super Sport 300+ production was limited to 30 units.
