Bugatti


Bugatti was founded in Molsheim,France as a manufacturer of high performance automobiles by Ettore Bugatti, an Italian immigrant described as an eccentric genius.

The original company is legendary for producing some of the most exclusive cars in the world, as well as some of the fastest. The original Bugatti brand failed with the coming of World War II,like many high-end marques of the time. The death of Ettore's son Jean was also a contributory factor. The company struggled financially, and released one last model in the 1950s, before eventually being purchased for its airplane parts business in the 1960s. Today the name is owned by VolksVagen Group, who have revived it as a builder of limited production exclusive sports cars

Cars

An automobile,motor car or a car is a wheeled motor vehicle used for transporting passengers,which also carries its own motor or engine.Most definitions of the term specify that automobiles are designed primarily to run on roads,to have seating for one to eight people,to typically have four wheels and to be constructed principally for the transport of people rather than goods.However the term automobile is far from precise,because there are many cars that do similar tasks.

There are approximately 600 million passenger cars world wide.Around the world there were about 806 million cars and light trucks on the road in 2007.They burn over 260 billion US gallons gasoline and diesel full yearly.The numbers are rapidly increasing in China and India.
