At the historic home of Bugatti<\/a> in Molsheim and at Bugatti partners worldwide, the first Tourbillon<\/a> customers have begun to put their own personal mark on their future hyper sports cars<\/a> during bespoke one-on-one configuration sessions. These owners can choose from more personalization options than ever before, including a new ‘\u00c9quipe Pur Sang’ package that pays emphatic visual testament to the Tourbillon\u2019s incomparable performance and Bugatti\u2019s motorsport history.<\/p>\n

A True Thoroughbred<\/h2>\n

The term ‘\u00c9quipe Pur Sang’ \u2013 translating to ‘Thoroughbred Team’ in English \u2013 evokes the legacy of Bugatti’s historic racing division, responsible for countless victories that cemented the marque’s reputation for excellence on the world stage. Now, this storied name graces a specification package that transforms the Tourbillon into motorsport-inspired incarnation of Bugatti’s latest masterpiece.<\/p>\n

The \u00c9quipe Pur Sang option enhances the Tourbillon with a comprehensive suite of elements designed and engineered to visually emphasize and attest to the Tourbillon\u2019s incomparable handling and performance characteristics. A dedicated front splitter works in harmony with a bespoke rear wing featuring small endplates to improve aero efficiency.<\/p>\n

Moving past carbon fiber engine cover inlays toward the rear of the vehicle, a purpose-built 8-pipe exhaust system is complemented by a specialized rear diffuser. This further enhances aerodynamic efficiency and improves the car’s downforce while lending the Tourbillon an even more purposeful stance.<\/p>\n

8% More Cooling<\/h2>\n

Newly conceived directional wheels represent another distinctive addition, integral to the performance and design of the car. Individually unique in their construction and manufacturing process, the wheels are differently sized \u2013 20 inches at the front and 21 inches at the rear \u2013 with further bespoke characterizations for left and right. Long, thin spokes heighten the presence of the rims, with the overall design reducing turbulence and enhancing airflow to the rear radiator \u2013 increasing flow to the latter by up to 8% for greater cooling.<\/p>\n

Inside the cabin, the \u00c9quipe Pur Sang theme continues with exquisite embroidery on the dashboard and seat headrests, bearing the distinctive logo that connects the Tourbillon to Bugatti’s racing heritage. The option includes Black Poli interior trim parts and the Medium Carbon Fiber Interior Package, creating a cockpit that balances luxury with purpose.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The \u00c9quipe Pur Sang specification also incorporates the Performance Seat option as standard \u2013 seats designed specifically to provide enhanced lateral support during high-G cornering. Finished in full Alcantara upholstery, the interior offers an environment that is simultaneously sporting and sophisticated.<\/p>\n

Configuration: a process of co-creation<\/h2>\n

For Tourbillon customers, the journey begins either at the Ch\u00e2teau Saint Jean in Molsheim or at Bugatti retail locations worldwide. There, guided by Bugatti’s expert team, customers select from an extraordinary palette of options to create a hyper sports car that reflects their individual taste, encouraged at every opportunity to explore any personal touches or moments in Bugatti history that they wish for their car to express.<\/p>\n

Hendrik Malinowski – Managing Director of Bugatti<\/h2>\n

“The configuration experience is unlike any other in the automotive world. Our customers are welcomed to configure their cars as a part of the Bugatti family. With the guidance of our designers and experts, each with a deep understanding of the Tourbillon and the achievements that have shaped our marque for 115 years, they make decisions that will define their Tourbillon for their ownership and for generations to come.”<\/p>\n

Beyond the \u00c9quipe Pur Sang specification, customers can select from a vast array of possibilities. The potential combinations are virtually limitless, from 23 new exterior colors to 20 new leather options, 10 new Alcantara choices, and 7 new carpet colors. The instrument cluster alone offers multiple configurations, with components crafted by Swiss watchmakers to the same exacting standards as the world’s finest timepieces.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Whether specified in \u00c9quipe Pur Sang configuration or not, each Tourbillon represents a watershed moment in automotive history. Powered by an all-new 8.3-liter naturally aspirated V16 engine delivering 1,000 hp, complemented by three electric motors providing an additional 800 hp, the Tourbillon offers performance that redefines what’s possible in a road car.<\/p>\n

Despite its extraordinary power output and the addition of a sophisticated hybrid system, the Tourbillon weighs less than its predecessor. This remarkable achievement is made possible by an advanced chassis constructed from T800 carbon composite, featuring innovations such as an integrated battery structure and a crash-composite rear diffuser inspired by top-level motorsport.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The powertrain achieves 1,000 hp without turbocharging \u2013 a technical tour de force that creates a more pure, immediate driving experience. When combined with the instant torque of the electric motors, the result is acceleration that must be experienced to be believed, delivered with a soundtrack that celebrates the art of naturally aspirated performance.<\/p>\n

Limited to just 250 examples globally, each starting at 3.8 million EUR, the Tourbillon represents the culmination of everything Bugatti has learned over more than a century of engineering excellence. It is a hyper sports car designed not merely for the present or even the future, but truly Pour l’\u00c9ternit\u00e9 \u2013 for eternity.<\/p>\n
