The latest engineering marvel from Bugatti, named the Tourbillon, is a testament to the automaker’s historic blend of aesthetics, speed, and opulence, continuing the legacy of iconic models like the Veyron and Chiron. The Tourbillon, taking its name from the prestigious horological device invented in 1801, represents a synergy between Bugatti and Rimac.
Equipped with a revolutionary V16 engine paired with an electric powerhouse, the Tourbillon aims to shatter expectations by accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in a mere two seconds. This hypercar marks a new era with its unprecedented natural aspiration V16 motor and hybrid system, a product of collaboration with the renowned engineering firm Cosworth.
Christophe Piochon, the president of Bugatti, expressed, “The Bugatti Tourbillon is a manifestation of our relentless quest for excellence, reflecting Ettore Bugatti’s dream to harmonize aesthetics, opulence, and engineering prowess.” The car’s aesthetics are heavily inspired by the precision of timepieces, embracing over 600 impeccably crafted mechanical components to create an unparalleled automotive experience.
With a lofty price tag of $4 million, the Tourbillon is an exclusive masterpiece with only 250 units slated for production, with expected delivery around 2026. This hypercar distinguishes itself with its signature horseshoe-shaped front grill and lavishly detailed cabin, charting a new course for automotive design and performance.
