Subdeacon Joe Posted October 24, 2024 Share Posted October 24, 2024 1932 Jean Bugatti standing next to the Bugatti Esders Roadster A clear view of just how large Royales really were. EDIT: "The Bugatti Type 41, better known as the Royale, is a large luxury car built from 1927 to 1933 with a 4.3 m (169.3 in) wheelbase and 6.4 m (21 ft) overall length. It weighs approximately 3,175 kg (7,000 lb) and uses a 12.763 litre (778 cu in) straight-eight engine. For comparison, against the modern Rolls-Royce Phantom (produced from 2003 onward), the Royale is about 20% longer, and more than 25% heavier. This makes the Royale one of the largest cars in the world." 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
