Instantly recognizable!!! The TOURBILLON draws upon 115 years of BUGATTI design DNA to evolve the ’Form Follows Performance’ philosophy into a new era. These are entirely new proportions, but unmistakably BUGATTI. Created as one single unbroken piece, the striking taillight is the embodiment of ’Form Follows Performance’, allowing hot air to be vented out from beneath it. A seamless blending of style and innovation.
BEAUTY UNDERNEATH
’Nothing is too beautiful.’ The words of Ettore Bugatti informed the design of TOURBILLON’s chassis — a stunning work of art, hidden from view, that’s not only exquisitely formed but immensely strong.
The vehicle’s low weight is further achieved through 3D-printing. Exploring this innovative technology creates light-as-possible suspension parts while achieving high tensile strength and preserving endurance and agility. An incomparable car demands an incomparable powertrain. Developed from the ground up and infused with a number of Formula One-derived technologies, a new naturally-aspirated V16 engine delivers 1,000 HP of raw, emotive performance.
UNMISTAKABLE POWER
The addition of three electric motors, contributing an extra 800 HP, completes the next-generation BUGATTI powertrain, enhancing and enabling the emotional essence of the naturally aspirated V16 engine. Pure lightweight engineering and increased performance, despite the addition of its battery pack and electric motors, result in the most unprecedented BUGATTI to date. A masterpiece of aerodynamics and power the TOURBILLON can hit 445 km/h. Emulating the submerged chassis of early Surbaissé BUGATTI models, the marque has lowered the seating. Outstretched legs simulate a single-seater race car experience. Narrowed and 4cm lower than its predecessor, the TOURBILLON has achieved a superior aerodynamic profile.
PERFORMANCE FIGURES
0–100 km/h (62 mph): 2.0 s 0–200 km/h (124 mph): <5 s 0–300 km/h (186 mph): <10 s 0–400 km/h (248 mph): <25 s Top speed: 445 km/h (276 mph) Maximum rpm: 9,000
EFFORTLESS ENTRY
Self-opening dihedral doors elegantly rise to preserve aerodynamic integrity of the silhouette and canopy, while ensuring easy entry and exit. Celebrating the innate purity of the material while championing authenticity, each meticulously selected element of a BUGATTI emanates excellence. From titanium to wood to cashmere to sapphire, the unparalleled quality speaks to our heritage as artisanal masters.
ANALOGUE ELEGANCE
Inspired by the timeless elegance of watchmaking craft, the TOURBILLON prioritizes an analogue design. The instrument cluster is constructed by Swiss horologists, built to precise watchmaking tolerances featuring over 600 components. The fixed hub steering wheel hones the driver’s focus, ensuring the cluster is clearly visible at all times.
TIMELESSNESS ON DISPLAY
The floating solid aluminium console flows gracefully into the transmission tunnel. Encased in crystal glass, intricate control functions are clearly visible. But hidden from view until desired is a high-definition digital screen, which displays vehicle data and offers seamless mobile connection.
MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE. ULTIMATE COMFORT.
To allow for the lowest seating position, and lightest design, the TOURBILLON’s seats are fixed directly to the floor, with the pedals and steering wheel adjustable. Inspired by the world of top-tier motorsport, it provides the ideal combination of practicality and high-performance control.
EVOLVING THE LEGACY
The TOURBILLON represents 115 years of heritage. Exemplifies 20 years of hyper sports car experience. This carefully curated mélange of the most important icons of BUGATTI ushers the coupé into the modern era.
