Bugatti Veyron Super Sport Reinstated as World's Fastest Production Car
After stripping Bugatti of the title for the fastest production car in the world, Guinness World Records has flip-flopped and confirmed that the title does rightfully belong to the Veyron Super Sport.
After conducting a thorough review with a “number of external experts,” the Guinness Book of World Records released a statement confirming Bugatti’s record of Fastest Production Car. According to Guinness World Records “a change to the speed limiter does not alter the fundamental design of the car or its engine.”
