2.0 / 10
Involvement 4.3 / 10

Why 2.0: Bugatti finally gave the Chiron a steering rack that talks back — a real gain over the Veyron's detachment — but 2,070 kg, permanent AWD and a DSG built for repeatability keep every other lens well short of an analog supercar. The lens that moved is chassis feel; the one that didn't is mass.

The long version

Chiron buyers inherited the Veyron's collector-first ownership pattern almost unchanged, even as journalists praised the newer car for finally feeling like something a driver does rather than something that happens to a passenger. Production wrapped in 2024 at a fixed, oversubscribed run, and allocation slots have traded hands for premiums before the cars themselves were finished — the surest sign that acquisition is the point for a meaningful share of buyers. What driving happens clusters around factory events and closed circuits, not commutes.
