Nice! When does the electric version come out?

Did you know? It's a little know & pointless fact, and I apologies if learning this accidentally displaces something useful in your head but, in a foot to the floor, straight line 70 mile race between the Veyron and the Roadster, the Roadster would win! Hurrah!

Why? Well, the Veyron would rocket off the line up to 250mph but would be out of fuel 12 mins later eventually rolling to a stop after just 60ish miles. Meanwhile the speed limited tortoise, sorry, Roadster, would waft (at 125mph) past the exhausted Veyron to eventually run, power limited over the 70 mile line.




btw: It'd cost you over $10,000 to do that little stunt in the Veyron; those tyres, which are now almost bald are $3K, each!

A smart Veyron driver would limit his speed to 130 MPH and win easily, but I get your point.

Also, if the Veyron driver would floor it, he would have 15 minutes for adding a couple of gallons somewhere past the half way point and still be ahead.

You see, now you're just spoiling my dream Top-Trumps factoid

This is exactly the kind of stunt that Top Gear does when the want to prove a point in the direction the want to favor. I'm reminded of the tiny boat windmill pictured to charge a Roadster.

Veyron gives me range anxiety.

The smart Veyron driver would flog the Veyron & buy a Roadster, a Model S, a cottage on the lake, & still have enough left over for a nice dinner or two with some 2005 Opus One...
