Cars of the future are worth the wait

See the most anticipated cars due to arrive in the next two years.

2017 Bugatti Chiron: The 258-mph Veyron 16.4 Super Sport currently wears the crown of fastest production car, but the Chiron, named for Monaco-born racer Louis Chiron, is expected to reach 288 mph. The 8.0-liter W-16 engine with direct injection, increased boost pressure, and at least two of its four turbochargers electrically powered. Output rises from 1200 to 1500 horsepower, and the 1106 pound-feet torque peak arrives lower in the rev range. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic again handles the shifting, and the four-wheel-drive system adds torque vectoring. Expected in 2016, priced somewhere around $2.5 million.
