Bugatti has unveiled its new model, the Bugatti Tourbillon, a massively powerful hybrid with 1,800 hp and an equally impressive price tag of $4 million.

The car will replace the $3.3 million, 1,500 hp Bugatti Chiron, Peter Valdes-Dapena reported for CNN.


You might have expected Bugatti’s new model to be all-electric. Not only is the industry headed in that direction, but in 2021 Bugatti was spun off from Volkswagen Group and merged with Rimac, the Croatian company that makes the all-electric Rimac Nevera supercar.



But Mate Rimac, the chief executive of the new company, now called Bugatti Rimac, said he never had any intention of making an all-electric Bugatti.


As gasoline-powered cars gradually fade from the world’s roads, Bugatti Rimac’s engineers and designers wanted to create something that retained the spirit of mechanically powered Bugatti cars, just better: an insanely powerful plug-in hybrid.



Like the Bugatti Chiron and Veyron models before it, the new Bugatti Tourbillon will have a huge, 16-cylinder gas engine. The engine, which was designed in cooperation with the British race car engineering firm Cosworth, will be assisted by three powerful electric motors.
