Bugatti has once again demonstrated its engineering dominance by shattering the open-top speed record. At a test track in Germany, the W16 Mistral, a breathtakingly powerful hypercar, achieved an incredible one-way speed of 453.

Bugatti proved it still has an insatiable need for speed when the W16 Mistral became the world’s fastest open-top car earlier this month. Not content with the latest feather in its cap, Bugatti CEO Mate Rimac has already set his sights on even loftier goals,

It marks a return for the French hypercar marque in the hunt for land speed records, a practice that was abandoned under former chief Stephan Winkelmann, after a Chiron Super Sport 300+ reached 304.773 mph in 2019, making it the first production car to go past the 300-mph mark.
