An impressive Bugatti Chiron replica was created in Vietnam. In appearance, the car is quite difficult to distinguish from the original. The process of building a hypercar was shown in detail in a video on the NET TV YouTube channel.
A copy of the Bugatti Chiron was actually built from scratch and worked on it for a year. It is based on a frame made of steel pipes, and body panels are hung on it.

The Bugatti body is made of fiberglass. To do this, a full-size mock-up of a car made of clay was created and then fiberglass was applied to it. After it froze, the layout was removed.
The creators of the Bugatti clone tried to keep the Chiron proportions. The car has working LED optics and tried to make the interior in the style of the original model.
But the Bugatti engine from Vietnam is quite modest. A copy of the hypercar is equipped with a 1.6-liter Toyota petrol four, so you should not expect outstanding dynamics. Recall that the original has a 1500 hp W16. But the suspension is made according to the same push-rod scheme as in Chiron (with horizontally arranged springs and shock absorbers).

This is not the first clone of the famous supercar from Vietnam. Earlier, a Porsche 918 Spyder was copied there, and it was built from plumbing pipes.
