2002→2006 B.Engineering Edonis

The B Engineering Edonis was launched in 2001 as a continuation of the Bugatti EB110 Super Sport. It was extensively re-engineered and only retained the Bugatti’s carbon-fiber chassis. Both the exterior and interior were completely redesigned and the 3.5-liter Bugatti engine was also upgraded

The Bugatti engine was increased from 3500 to 3760 cc and the four small IHI turbochargers were upgraded to two larger units from the same manufacturer. Thus, engine power increased from 449 kW (602 hp) and 650 N·m (480 lb·ft) of torque to 500 kW (670 hp) at 8000 rpm and 735 N·m (542 lb·ft).

In addition, the 4WD triple-differential drivetrain from the original Bugatti was replaced with a much simpler and lighter RWD transaxle. This saved approximately 70 kg (154 lb) from the design.

At the time of launch, B Engineering claimed a maximum speed of 365 km/h (227 mph), while accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in only 3.9 seconds.

B Engineering planned to build only 21 vehicles for €760,000, but it is unlikely they reached that goal.
