The Bugatti Veyron, produced by Volkswagen Group in 2005, exceeded all expectations in terms of power, speed, and comfort. The car was built around a quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W-16 engine and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, with a full-time Haldex all-wheel drive system.

The car’s stopping power was provided by massive carbon-ceramic disc brakes, and it had three different drive modes. In addition to its performance, the Veyron was also notable for its hand-crafted construction and unique design.
