Peeped on fotosporno at nürburgring race track, a disguised prototype of the Bugatti Veyron hypercar has spawned a great many rumors and interpretations among journalists. The fact that the test of the prototype above the engine compartment behind the cockpit is clearly visible strange aluminum frame construction, and the sound of the engine hypercar paparazzi seemed much subdued and quite different tone. The reporters of the publication Auto Evolution, bringing together all previously protalkivaya network message about the future of the Veyron, I venture to suggest that at the Nurburgring driven around a hybrid modification of the iconic sports car.
Indeed, it is very similar to the truth. Most of the more or less important serial rivals the Bugatti Veyron is not the first year touring with hybrid power plants in the compartments. This also applies to a McLaren P1, and Ferrari LaFerrari, and Porsche 918 Spyder. Only very few of the cohort hypercar stay with traditional gasoline engines, but their age is not long, as the hybrid drive, even in the super sports car segment, making them more effective in private use, and in the case of rental cars for the company.
Besides the Veyron, for example, is not the first year has tipped the generation change, and the Director of Bugatti, Wolfgang Schreiber, and even stated last year that the hypercar will give way to a new car with a different name. A couple of months ago Mr. Schreiber dropped the phrase "acceptable appearance of a hybrid version of the Veyron" that seized on the journalists.
However, insiders say that if hybrid and will, not earlier than 2015, which is scheduled to shift generation of the car. Some of the experts in contrast to the version on the hybrid suggested that the nürburgring went just a more powerful version of the Veyron, and aluminum design on the stern just serves as a stand for measuring equipment.
However, this is contrary to statements of the Bugatti that is more powerful than the current 1250 HP Veyron will not – the engine's capacity almost fully utilized, and the body will have to rebuild again. How it will actually – time will tell.
