1. Normal car runs with one radiator, whereas Veyron is equipped with 12 radiators to cool down its 987 bhp monstrous engine.
2. The entire engine of Veyron is made by its two technicians, who assemble entire components with their hand only. No automatic machines are used for the complete assembly.
3. The top speed of Veyron is about 431 km/h, but it cannot travel at this speed as it has only 26 gallon capacity for gas, which will run dry after 50 miles at a speed of 253 mph.
4. Plastic, aluminum and steels are used for the front grille in normal cars, but in Veyron, grille is made up from the titanium material in order to withstand frontal collision. Not only grille, but also the bolts are made up from the titanium in place of stainless steel.

8. The pumping capacity of the Veyron‘s fuel pump is seven to eight times more than the pump used in normal car.
9. At top speed, Veyron consumes 47,000 litres of air per minute, the amount of air consumed by a single man in four days.
10. At the Veyron’s 253-mph top speed, the Veyron consumes 47,000 litres of air per minute — as much air as one man breathes in four days.
11. The waste energy from running the 16.4 litre engine at full whack could heat 10 family homes in the winter.
12. It takes 15 hours to build one radiator for the Veyron – each car has a total of 10.
13. The brakes can withstand heat of up to 1800°C
14. When the air brake is at an angle of 55 degrees it generates 70% of the braking force of an average car.
15. The Bugatti Veyron is split into three parts and only held together with 14 bolts.
