Lego Technic was sold with the simple promise that you could “build for real”, and boy did Lego mean it when they said that. The company created a full-scale, drivable replica of a Bugatti Chiron from LEGO to back up this claim, and it’s the greatest thing ever made from LEGO.

Over a million LEGO Technic pieces went into make the “car”, giving it a total weight of around 1,500 kgs/ 3,300 lbs. It took 13,400 man-hours to put it all together, and the most impressive part of the car is under the hood; 2,304 LEGO Power Function motors put together to generate around 5,3 horsepower to give the car a top speed of around 18 miles per hour.
