Bugatti Chiron - Hypercar

Recommended Posts

I felt like it was time to step up my game and start modeling more popular, more difficult Hypercars. 
I was able to create a suspension strong enough not to need torsion bar, for all you purists out there :sweet:
The Chiron is one hypercar most builders do not attempt, therefore I felt it was time to step up and see what happens!

The Chiron has curves & shapes difficult to replicate.

This build began with the simplistic, strong and extremely reliable Framework.

This vehicle has a custom W16 motor (designed by @DugaldIC), front and rear lights, 2wd - 4wd shifter, Steering with the Servo, 2 XL Motors for drive, 1 M motor for rear wing, Sbrick, LIPO battery, button to turn on the battery & independent suspension.

The idea was to create a purely cosmetic build, and create the whole car as close to scale as possible.

As this car has a fairly short front and rear end, the batteries and motors had to be between the wheels.

The Servo for steering was tucked as low as possible in front of the of the wheels not to interfere with the hood / wheel wells.

The framework is low as possible, 1 stud off the ground, 2 studs above the front wheels. This was a nightmare to allow the wheels to turn without rubbing on the inside.

There are 10 lights on this car, the most I have ever added to my builds!

I've got to give huge props to Dugald for the engine, and Sheepo for the car jack in the video :classic:

Two Bro's, two supercars :wink:
