BUGATTI DEVELOPS UNIQUE HYPER SPORTS CAR FOR A BUGATTI ENTHUSIAST.
the successful continuation of their heritage poses a challenge for traditional companies. once again, the french luxury brand bugatti has shown that it can transform these challenges into unique models. with its one-off car “la voiture noire1“bugatti has again proved that it makes the world’s most powerful, most luxurious and most exclusive hyper sports cars. “the true form of luxury is individuality. ‘la voiture noire’ is now at the cutting edge of automobile production. it is a sculptural beauty with unique technology, the ideal grand tourisme,” says bugatti president stephan winkelmann. this is a coupé with the comfort of a luxury limousine and the power of a hyper sports car.

A pioneering spirit, a passion for perfection and the desire to continually redefine its limits have been the key characteristics of Bugatti since the brand was established 110 years ago. “Our history is both a privilege and a responsibility – the responsibility for continuing the Bugatti heritage into the future.

This is a tailor-made creation only comparable with the haute couture of exclusive Paris fashion designers.

This means that the hyper sports car has changed its attitude and become a grand tourisme – ideal for comfortable travel on long trips.

“Every single component has been handcrafted and the carbon fibre body has a deep black gloss only interrupted by the ultrafine fibre structure. This is a material that has been handled perfectly,” says Bugatti designer Etienne Salomé. “We worked long and hard on this design until was nothing that we could improve. For us, the coupé represents the perfect form with a perfect finish.
