Bugatti Tourbillon: sucessor do Chiron chega com 1800 cv

Bugatti has revealed the new Tourbillion supercar, the successor to the Chiron, a limited edition hybrid model with 1800 horsepower.

The new Tourbillon debuts an 8.3-liter naturally aspirated V16 engine designed by Cosworth, replacing the well-known 8.0-liter W16 engine, capable of producing 1000 horsepower at 9000 rpm, which combines with three electric motors, two in the front and one on the rear axle, adding an additional 800 horsepower.

The trio of electric motors is powered by an 800V electrical system and a 25.4 kWh battery, allowing for an electric-only range of just 60 km.

With the combined 1800 hp, which is transmitted to all four wheels by an eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox, the Tourbillon accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 2 seconds, from 0 to 200 km/h in 5 seconds, and from 0 to 300 km/h in an impressive 10 seconds. The predefined top speed is 380 km/h, however, with the installed “Speed Key,” Bugatti’s new supercar reaches 444 km/h.

The speeds achieved by the new model from the house of Molsheim are displayed on an instrument panel that seems to come from a watchmaker’s dream, and will certainly please watch enthusiasts, and help explain the name of Bugatti’s new model, as Tourbillon is a device invented in 1801 that is still added to the most sophisticated watch models.

There are five dials that combine the available data for the driver, from speed to battery capacity, as well as rotations, almost all analog.

In the interior, there is also a highlight for the level of finishes, very much in line with the Chiron, but with truly unique solutions, such as the button on the console to activate the Tourbillon, which refers to the more classic models of the early 20th century, which allows you to pull the button to start the V16, and push it to deactivate the powerful engine of this supercar.

Also worth mentioning are the pedals that are electronically adjustable, unlike the fixed sports seats, while the two-spoke steering wheel, mounted behind the set of gauges, allows the instrument panel to always be visible to the driver without the spokes of the wheel affecting visibility.

As for the exterior, the Tourbillon presents a design very similar to the Chiron, with more tense lines and a generously sized and special diffuser, as it starts behind the cabin.

In addition, highlight the ventilation grilles located under the headlights that help channel air to the generous side air intakes. On the other hand, the horseshoe-shaped grille provides air to the radiators while increasing downforce. Also note the active rear spoiler that can function as a brake to help stop the powerful supercar.

Bugatti also highlights the new multi-link suspension that equips the Tourbillon, which it says is 45% lighter compared to the Chiron’s.

The Molsheim house announced that it will produce only 250 units of the new Tourbillon, with each one priced at €3.8 million, before taxes, with the first deliveries expected in 2026.
