Bugatti Vs Porsche 911

Cars became an important utility especially in the UAE. Some people like to have big cars while the others like to have small cars. Sport cars became almost the most wanted even if they are expensive. For example the Porsche 911 is expensive but people buy it while the Bugatti is another famous car but cannot be owned by everybody. In this essay I will compare and contrast between these two cars.


Both of these cars are the super sport cars which have only two seats and are very powerful. They are famous and have very good slippery design. They have the same size of wheels which is 17-inch and they are stable on the street during high and low speeds. The driver feels confident while driving. During driving both of them are quiet and have very high performance.
The differences between them are more than the similarities. For example the horse power of the Bugatti is 1001 hp while the Porsche 911 is 500 hp. The torque of the Bugatti is 922 n and on the other hand the Porsche 911 is 700 only. This means that the Bugaati is much more powerful and that is what makes its speed reach around 407 km/hour. The Porsche 911 can run up to 312 kph maximum. With its reduced weight, the 911 offers better fuel efficiency, managing 24.1 to 24.8mpg, while emitting less carbon dioxide - 18 per cent less, in fact. This attempts to further widen the gap between Porsche and its competitors in the green approach to sports car construction (Gulf News, August 2008). The Porsche casts $ 130,000 which makes it easier to be bought by many people. “On this basis, I’d be similarly dismissive of the Bugatti Veyron. I mean it’s on sale now at £840,000. And, for that money, you could buy a house” said Jeremy Clarkson.
In my opinion the Bugatti is faster and more powerful. Hennessey Performance Company thinks this ungodly power will make the Bugatti Veyron GT crack the 0-62mph dash in just 2.4 seconds and hit a top speed of 262mph. Although it is very expensive, it is nice to dream to own a Bugatti Veyron one day.
