The World’s Greatest Supercar Adventure: Gumball 3000 Comes to ASEAN
For the first time, the Gumball 3000 supercar rally will be held in the ASEAN countries of Vietnam, Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Singapore in September, with the opening ceremony taking place in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, on September 14 and 15, 2024.
Car enthusiasts are curious about the heat of the Gumball 3000 journey and how many cars will participate this year. Recently, Mr. Nguyen Quoc Cuong, also known as Cuong “Dollar,” revealed a glimpse of the car lineup that will be part of the world’s largest supercar event in 2024.
In these photos, the highlights are the two Bugatti Chiron supercars, bringing the total confirmed Chirons for Gumball 3000 2024 to three. The remaining Chiron belongs to a Cambodian businessman, and it’s possible that the number of Bugattis could increase when Gumball 3000 launches in Vietnam on September 14 and 15, 2024.
One of the two Bugatti Chiron supercars features a green carbon fiber exterior and an impressive set of custom wheels, while the other is a black and orange Pur Sport edition. The Pur Sport is powered by the same iconic 8.0-liter W16 engine with four turbochargers, producing a maximum output of 1,479 horsepower at 6,900 rpm.

As a result, the Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport can accelerate from 60 to 120 km/h in two seconds faster than the standard model. However, its top speed is reduced to 350 km/h, and it has an average fuel consumption of 22.5 liters per 100 km.
In addition to these two megacars, other notable vehicles include the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS 992, which is not yet available in Vietnam, two Lamborghini Huracan Sterrato, a Ferrari Dino 246GT, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan with the license plate 01 owned by a Middle Eastern tycoon, and several other impressive cars.
