on the upper EB, a circle of dots around it symbolizes the ball bearing, and the background color is red.
EB stands for Eitor Bugatti's English Pinyin. Bugatti is a world-famous brand of old sports cars. In 199, the Italian Ettore Bugatti created the Bugatti logo in Germany.
as early as the 192s and 193s, Bugatti has become the coveted target of luxury cars all over the world, and its unparalleled sports car has also become the object of crazy pursuit by fans.
in p>1947, bugatti terminated its operation due to the death of its founder Ettore Bugatti. Until the early 199s, with the efforts of Italian Romano Artioli, an avid car fan and industrialist, the Bugatti brand was revived and a super-running production car like the EB11 was launched.
unfortunately, Bugatti, who finally came back to life, declared bankruptcy in 1995 because of the company's financial difficulties, leaving only 139 EB11 cars mass-produced and the EB112 concept car stillborn.
In p>1998, Piech, an automobile magnate from Germany, bought the trademark right of Bugatti and formally brought Bugatti under the Volkswagen Group.

Extended information:
The speed is comparable to that of F1, which is an evaluation of Bugatti Veyron. Speaking of speed, I have to mention the engine. Bugatti Veyron uses a 16-cylinder 8.3-liter four-turbo engine.
Bugatti's engineers once did an experiment. They made the W16 engine run at full load, and its rated power was 1,1 horsepower, but in fact it could generate no less than 3, horsepower in generate, and two-thirds of the energy would be converted into heat energy, which directly burned the exhaust device on the ceiling of the laboratory when it was discharged, and even the whole laboratory almost burned down, showing its great power.
to give a simple example, the heat generated by the W16 engine on Bugatti Veyron is enough to provide daily heating for 1 families, which is not surprising.
it is conceivable that such a high amount of heat is used on the body, which will make the power of this car incomparable. Indeed, it takes only 2.46 seconds for Bugatti to accelerate from to 1km/h and only 7.3 seconds to reach 2 km/h.. This acceleration is no less than the most advanced F1 car. At the same time, Bugatti also set a world record of the fastest driving speed of 431km/h in a production car.
Bugatti uses a 7-speed DSG dual-clutch gearbox to match the engine. This gearbox is tailor-made by Ricardo, and the price of this transmission alone will not be less than 12, US dollars.
This gearbox simulates the real manual operation by manipulating the paddle behind the steering wheel and the gear lever on the floor, and controlling the clutch with a computer. Its gear shifting process can be completed in .2 seconds, which can be said to be the fastest in the world five years ago.
Four tires of Bugatti are tailor-made by Michelin, and in terms of tire width alone, the front and rear wheels use different tire widths.
and this tire costs 7, dollars, and you may not be able to buy it if you have money. It only exists in France, the base camp of Bugatti, and only there will your wheel hub be fitted with such a tire.
