Bugatti EB 110 from the 90's
The Bugatti EB110 is an exclusive supercar, the 1990s successor to one of the most celebrated marques in automotive history. It was unveiled on September 15, 1991 exactly 110 years after Ettore Bugatti's birth.
The EB 110 had a 60-valve, quad-turbo V12 powering all four wheels through a six-speed gearbox. The 3.5 L (3499 cc) engine was capable of 553 PS (542 hp/407 kW) at 8000 rpm. Acceleration to 100 km/h (62 mph) took just 3.6 seconds, and the car topped out at 209 mph (336 km/h).
This car was definitely innovative at that time.
