Located in the center of the Persian Gulf, the country of Saudi Arabia thrives on luxury like its neighboring states, making the Bugatti marque synonymous with the Middle East. Bugatti enthusiasts in the region will now get to enjoy the limited-edition Bugatti Chiron Sport "Les Legendes du Ciel."

The Chiron Sport "Les Legendes du Ciel" was presented to a select group of VIPs at the first Chiron Pur Sport drive event in Saudi Arabia. The exclusive edition model pays homage to legendary French pilots, which are integral to Bugatti’s history.

The hyper sports car was revealed in the most exclusive fashion, in private viewings in Jeddah and the capital city of Riyadh. Le Mans winner and Bugatti official test pilot, Andy Wallace, also graced the Chiron Pur Sport event to explain and show to customers what the Chiron is capable of.

The coastal roads of Jeddah ,and the horizons around the city of Riyadh, the open landscapes of Saudi Arabia, also allowed the Chiron to show its strengths. Bugatti said this hyper car offers maximum agility, handling, and driving performance, which are all maximized by the enviable skills and experience of Wallace.
