Bugatti Unveil 1,800 Horsepower Hypercar - The Tourbillon

Bugatti Unveil 1,800 Horsepower Hypercar - The Tourbillon. Bugatti has done it again. 20 years on from the debut of the revolutionary Veyron, a hypercar boasting 1,001 horsepower and eight years on from the release of the Chiron, which upped the ante with 1,500 horsepower, they have debuted a new hypercar - the Tourbillon. The Tourbillon packs an incredible 1,800 horsepower thanks to an all-new 8.3-litre naturally aspirated V16 engine paired with an electric powertrain. 1,000 horsepower comes from the combustion engine and 800 from the electric motors. Its hybrid system includes a 25 kWh oil-cooled battery, providing a significant all-electric range. The vehicle features an innovative diffuser and advanced aerodynamic elements that ensure stability and performance at speeds exceeding 400 km/h. The exterior design incorporates classic Bugatti elements, such as the horseshoe grille and dual-tone paintwork while evolving them for modern aesthetics. Inside is a Swiss-made instrument cluster, crafted from precious materials and designed to last for generations. Bugatti’s new chassis and body structure employ cutting-edge materials and technologies making the Tourbillon lighter and more rigid than its predecessors. It is now set to enter its testing phase, before being produced in a limited run of 250 units, with customer deliveries expected in 2026. The starting price is a staggering €3.8 million (£3.2 million).
