faster, more powerful bugatti in the works?
_a development project under the guise of project lydia might sound all very inconspicuous, but with bugatti at the helm, this ain t no picnic. according to german magazine auto motor und sport, bugatti have finalised plans to develop a new supercar set to rival if only its own model for sheer speed, but they as yet remain just that; plans.
insider information pins the street-legal project lydia down to 1.5-tonnes and a monocoque body design, having power in the region of 1,175 ps and a top speed of up to 400 km/h (248 mph). while bugatti are said to be juggling the attributes of racing excellence and polished design, the german publication expects bugatti s characteristic grille to stay, much like the veyron s sweeping side profile and prominent 20-inch wheels. from the world of motorsport, a giant rear spoiler, front air splitter and low ground clearance for both chassis and mid-positioned engine will all feature.
in pursuit of the greatest possible performance, vw are aspiring for a nurburgring nordschliefe lap time of six minutes fourty seconds - beating the veyron by a full minute. with exclusivity as important a feature as its supercar performance, project lydia , named so after ettore bugatti s wife lydia, is expected to be limited to just 70 examples. and it ll come at a price, retailing for a cool 2.5 million euros.
originally penciled in for a 2009 introduction with support from supervisory board chairman ferdinand piech, that date looks likely to shift to atleast 2010 if given the green-light amid scepticism from ceo martin winterkorn in the present green political environment._
