Designer Theophilus Chin took the roof off of the fastest production car on the planet.

The Bugatti Chiron, successor to the Veyron, was designed in honor of Louis Chiron – a driver that the brand considers to be the best driver in its history (see the whole story here).

The brand has yet to confirm whether the Chiron will follow in its predecessor's footsteps and adopt an open-air version, but designer Theophilus Chin is always one step ahead and envisioned a very realistic version of the convertible version. Like the Veyron, the Bugatti Chiron Grand Sport (in the highlighted image) retains the pillars and structural reinforcements of the regular version, but adds a retractable polycarbonate roof.

Thanks to an 8.0 liter W16 quad-turbo engine with 1500hp and 1600Nm of maximum torque, the Bugatti Chiron reaches a top speed of 420km/h, electronically limited. The acceleration from 0-100km/h is estimated at a scant 2.5 seconds.
