Bugatti Veyron Braking

Veyron drilled brake use, carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide radially ventilated (C / SiC) composite panels, manufactured by SGL Carbon, which is a much higher resistance to fading than traditional cast iron discs. Lightweight aluminum alloy one-piece calipers are AP Racing; fronts has eight titanium pistons and the rear calipers have six pistons. Bugatti claims maximum deceleration of 1.3 G street tires. As added security, brake failure occurs, anti-lock brakes (ABS) is also installed on the handbrake.

Prototypes have been subjected to repeated braking of $ 1.0 million from 312 km / h (194 mph) to 80 km / h (50 mph) without disappearing. With the acceleration of the car at 80 km / h (50 mph) to 312 km / h (194 mph), this test can be repeated every 22 seconds. At speeds above 200 km / h (120 mph), the rear wing also acts as an air brake, set at an angle of 55 degrees in 0.4 seconds once brakes are applied, providing an additional 0, 68 g (4.9 m / s ²) of deceleration (equivalent to the stopping power of a normal hatchback).

Bugatti Veyron claim will slow from 400 km / h (250 mph) at a stop in less than 10 seconds, but this time you will have covered a third of a mile.
