Bugatti Centodieci Parked Inside A -20°C Deep Freezer For Two Days During Tests
Bugatti Centodieci parked inside a minus 20 Degrees Celsius Degrees (-20°C) Climate Chamber for two days during tests.
It follows the tests conducted at room temperature and heat tests at up to 50 degrees Celsius (50°C).
Bugatti engineers will be performing more tests on the Centodieci over the next few weeks.
These includes an endurance testing over a distance of more than 30,000-km and the final high-speed test drives.
The Centodieci, which means 110 in Italian, was unveiled almost three years ago to celebrate Bugatti’s 110 years anniversary.
It pays homage to its iconic 90s EB110 supercar, built to celebrate Ettore Bugatti’s 110th birthday in 1991.
Production by hand will begin soon. All ten Bugatti Centodieci are set to be delivered to their owners this year.
The Chiron-based Bugatti Centodieci has successfully passed its extreme cold test after been parked in a special climate chamber for two days, following tests conducted at room temperature and heat tests at up to 50 degrees Celsius.
To test its performance and reliability, Bugatti engineers subjected the special Centodieci hypercar to a cold climate chamber, during which every part and component was monitored.
Bugatti engineers spent a week checking various parts and components of the Centodieci in the climate chamber.

Even though customers will perhaps never expose their vehicles to such extreme climate conditions, Bugatti said that the heat and cold tests are the only way to ensure that the Centodieci will function safely at all times.
“Like any other Bugatti, the Centodieci has to perform impeccably at all temperatures, be it 50 degrees Celsius or minus 20 degrees Celsius. We owe this to our quality pledge and to our customers,” says Carl Heilenkötter, Bugatti’s Technical Project Manager for one-off and few-off projects.
“With the climate chamber, we can replicate all kinds of different tests and precisely compare the results again and again.”
Bugatti engineers will be performing more tests on the Centodieci over the next few weeks, including an endurance testing over a distance of more than 30,000 kilometers (18,600 miles) and the final high-speed test drives.
