Although we've seen this combination a time or two before, it remains incredibly special and never gets boring. When you stand in front of these three cars, you don't know which one to look at first because all three are incredibly rare and unique.
The rarest of them all is actually the Chiron. Only 30 of this special variant were produced worldwide. The Supersport 300+ couldn't be customized, so they all look identical. The Speedtail was built 106 times worldwide, making it the second rarest car in this trio. However, if it had been a regular Chiron, the Speedtail would have been even rarer. The Countach LPI 800-4 was the most frequently produced, with 112 units. Of course, that's still extremely rare.
When we talk about the prices of these hyper-modern toys for the super-rich, the Chiron is also at the top. Anyone looking to buy such a Chiron had to shell out at least 3.5 million. Depending on the country, additional taxes had to be paid. The Speedtail is in second place again. You only had to put down 2.5 million for this one. The cheapest of the three was the Countach, at 2.4 million. Since these three cars are still brand new, the price is still quite stable. The truly interesting phase will come in 10, 30, or even 50 years when these modern cars become vintage. Of course, the future is still very uncertain. Whether these cars will even become such cool vintage cars is questionable because they are packed with electronics and less and less analog technology, as we know from the past.
When it comes to the performance of the three, the Chiron is, of course, the most powerful. It boasts an incredible 1599 horsepower. That's almost double that of the Countach! The Speedtail has an impressive 1050 horsepower.
In terms of top speed, the Countach is naturally the lowest. Its top speed is 350 km/h. If you fully accelerate the Speedtail, you can reach up to 403 km/h. On the other hand, the Super Sport 300+ reaches an impressive 440 km/h and is thus one of the fastest road-legal cars in the world. You just need to find a place where you can drive that fast. The German Autobahn, for example, would be a hidden gem.
Let's talk about a very special design element that only two of these cars have: the Speedtail and the Chiron. Both have a rearward elongated tail, known as Longtails. The Speedtail is 5.137 meters long, a whole 4.04 cm longer than the Chiron, which is 4.733 meters long. Since the Countach has a normal and rather compact rear, it's only 4.14 meters long, which is 10 cm shorter than the Speedtail. While the Speedtail has a wheelbase of 267.0 cm, the Countach's is only 245 cm long, and the Chiron's is 271.1 cm long.
