The article “Bugatti Chiron review - the final generation of Bugatti's W16 masterpiece" by Meaden (2023) provides an overview of the Bugatti Chiron, a high-performance supercar recognised for its exceptional performance. The vehicle has a robust 16-cylinder engine that produces an astounding 1479 horsepower and 1180 lb-ft of torque. The article by Meaden (2023) goes on to praise the Chiron's engine as a remarkable accomplishment in engineering, delivering immediate power throughout all engine speeds (Jason, 2015). Perkins (2022) attributes this to the "sequential setup" of turbochargers, which involves the utilisation of two turbos to optimize performance during lower engine speeds, specifically up to 3800 revolutions per minute (rpm). Upon reaching this threshold, the valve opens and activates the two remaining turbochargers (Perkins, 2022). This design maintains peak torque output within the RPM range of 2000 to 6000 (Philip, 2022). The quad-turbocharger system...

The vehicle is equipped with a robust 16-cylinder engine that produces an astounding 1479 horsepower and 1180 lb-ft of torque. In March 2016, Bugatti introduced the Chiron, a vehicle that showcased a significant enhancement in power, surpassing the Veryon by 50%. This achievement was made possible through the revamped 8.0-liter W16 engine and larger turbochargers (Bugatti, 2022). According to Dorian and Clarke (2022), the Bugatti Chiron accelerates from 0-60 miles per hour (mph) in 2.3 seconds and it achieves a top speed of 261 mph.
