The Gumball 3000 2024 supercar rally concluded in Singapore last weekend, and the participating vehicles began their journey back to the starting point. However, a few intrepid souls felt that the 3,000-mile, nearly 5,000-km journey over eight days was not enough, so they decided to push their cars even further by almost 3,000 km.
Specifically, three vehicles, including a Ram 1500 TRX and two mega-cars, the Bugatti Chiron and Chiron Super Sport, took part in this extended adventure. After a day of rest in Singapore, where they witnessed the excitement of Formula 1 racing, these enthusiasts embarked on a drive from Singapore to Malaysia, a distance of nearly 600 km.
What’s truly remarkable is their second-day drive from Malaysia to Thailand, covering an astonishing 1,200 km in 18 hours of non-stop driving. This exhaustive journey left the trio exhausted, but they safely reached the Thai capital of Bangkok without any incidents.
The Bugatti Chiron duo’s epic road trip back to Cambodia included days of driving up to 1,200 km, spending more than 18 hours behind the wheel.
For the final leg of their journey, the owners of the Bugatti Chiron and Chiron Super Sport left their hotel in Thailand at 3 a.m. to make a non-stop drive to Phnom Penh, covering 660 km. They were greeted by thousands of enthusiastic locals and fellow supercar enthusiasts in Cambodia.
Opting to drive their Bugatti Chirons back to Cambodia instead of choosing less strenuous transportation methods is a testament to these enthusiasts’ passion and dedication. Their decision to “push” their cars beyond the rally’s limits surprised and delighted many.
The French supercar manufacturer, Bugatti, produced only 60 Chiron Super Sports worldwide, each with a price tag of $3.9 million, approximately 90 billion VND. This exclusive model offers a unique combination of power and luxurious features, setting it apart from the speed-focused Chiron Super Sport 300+.
Under the hood, the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport boasts a W16 engine with a displacement of 8.0 liters and four turbochargers, delivering an impressive 1,578 horsepower and a maximum torque of 1,600 Nm. To ensure safety and compliance, the vehicle’s top speed has been limited to 440 km/h.

The Gumball 3000 2024 rally witnessed an extraordinary gathering of automotive icons. From the formidable Ford Ranger Raptor and the timeless Land Rover Defender to the exquisite Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge and the Italian masterpieces, the Lamborghini Huracan STO and Aventador SVJ. But the pinnacle of this automotive spectacle was the presence of not one, but two Bugatti Chirons – the Chiron and the Chiron Super Sport, capping off an incredible lineup that left enthusiasts in awe.

The owner of this Ferrari 488 Pista Spider took a rather unusual approach when it came to modifying their car. They decided to install an impressive body kit, but instead of using traditional methods, they secured it with tape. Unfortunately, this unconventional method backfired, as the custom parts started falling off as the car drove down the road. To make matters worse, the owner also replaced the iconic Ferrari prancing horse logo with that of a French car manufacturer. This act of heresy against the prestigious Italian automotive brand is sure to ruffle some feathers.
