Strategy The legendary Bugatti sets course for electrification
Exclusive We tested the Bugatti Chiron: Non plus ultra
Getting behind the wheel of a car with 1,001 horsepower and capable of reaching a top speed of 408 km/h can be done by anyone
with a car license.
That then the thing comes to fruition if one gets carried away by these enormous benefits, is another matter.
And that is what, apparently, has happened to one of the Portuguese star's employees, who yesterday crashed a CR7 Bugatti Vyeron
against the entrance wall of a country house in the Sa Coma urbanization, in Bunyola ( Palma de Mallorca),
where Cristiano Ronaldo spends a few days on vacation with his family.
The vehicle is valued at around
1.6 million euros and is one of 450 that were manufactured worldwide by the brand owned by the Volkswagen Group.
could end in tragedy
According to the images that have been released by international media and other local media such as the Diario del Mallorca, the vehicle continued straight on a street and,
despite the braking tracks that appear on the road, ended up destroying a booth full of butane cylinders,
for what the accident could have ended in tragedy.
The two occupants of the Veyron, on the other hand, escaped unharmed.
Not so the supercar, with the front and the right side very touched.

The Portuguese striker, formerly of Real Madrid and Juventus and with his future at Manchester United still to be resolved, is a great fan of the French brand, owns several models of it and has been its image, something unusual in Cristiano when it comes to car firms.
He has, for example, a Veyron Gran Sport Vitesse in black and a two-tone Chiron in silver and black (the later model and replacement of the Veyron that raises its power to 1,500 horsepower and its price to almost three million euros).
Of the Bugatti La Voiture Noire only one car was built
It was also rumored that he would have acquired
the only unit that was built of the Bugatti La Voiture Noire, valued at 11 million euros,
although other sources attributed his purchase to the late Ferdinand Piëch, who was a patron of the Volkswagen Group.
