Yes but the Bugatti Veyron Supersport was an older car (relatively )on older tires. The production version didn't go as fast as the record setting one because the tires were unsafe at that speed- so it was higher than the base Veyron, but not as fast as the record attempt.
Newer tires have advanced now which I guess is why they think these type of speeds will be attainable. However it could be similar to the Veyron again where the production version gets slightly dialed back again. We have to wait and see.
Edit: from Wiki - "The Super Sport has a 431.072 km/h (267.856 mph) top speed, making it the fastest production road car on the market[4][35][36] although it is electronically limited to 415 km/h (258 mph) to protect the tyres from disintegrating."
These newer cars could run into the same problem. Who knows? Record attempts can be done with the same equipment with no limitations, but they may have to be put back in place during production for liability reasons.

IN THAT ORDER.
