Watch Top Gear host Chris Harris sample the Bugatti Chiron's unbelievable acceleration

Update: The original video and tweet have been removed from Twitter.

Yes, yes, we all know how fast the new 1,500 horsepower Bugatti Chiron is. It'll do 0-60 mph in under 2.5 seconds, 0-100 mph in just 6.5, and the top speed is 261 mph (limited). As Top Gear host Chris Harris shows here, stats and figures don't really do the car justice. The Instagram clip from the "onlychirons" account shows Harris repeatedly accelerating to triple digit speeds followed by full panic stops. The sheer glee on his face really says it all.

As many enthusiasts know, Harris is no stranger to high-performance machines. He's one of the few people in the world to drive the so-called holy trinity of supercars: the Ferrari LaFerrari, the Porsche 918, and the McLaren P1. The clip here was apparently taken during the filming for the latest series of Top Gear. Look for Harris and the Chiron on an new episode in the next few weeks.
