The hypercar model is entering the stages of performance testing before being delivered in 2024.
Bolide is a hypercar model first introduced by Bugatti in October 2020. After nearly 3 years of development, Bolide is entering the final stages of testing. |
Compared to the concept version, Bugatti Bolide has had many design changes to optimize performance, especially when the car uses a “huge” W16 engine with a capacity of 8.0L. |
The front splitter is one of the key aerodynamic elements, ensuring optimal performance on the track. Mechanical rearview mirrors are used instead of camera technology on the concept, allowing the distance between other cars to be estimated more quickly. |
The absolute precision design of the rear wing assembly on the Bolide allows this structure to adapt to the characteristics of each different type of track. |
The 4-pipe independent exhaust system has been replaced by a 3D printed titanium dual exhaust cluster. Bolide is equipped with Michelin racing tires as standard on LMDh models competing in the FIA World Endurance Championship. |
Bugatti Bolide is still equipped with a powerful 8.0L W16 engine with 1,600 horsepower. The car can corner with an acceleration of up to 2.5 G and a force of nearly 3 tons on the road surface. |
The application of ultra-light materials also helps optimize the weight to only 1,450 kg. Bolide is capable of accelerating from 0-100 km/h in 2.2 seconds with a maximum speed of more than 501 km/h. |
Virtual reality simulations are performed on famous race tracks around the world, helping Bugatti engineers calibrate the Bolide closer to the car’s physical limits. |
Bugatti Bolide will be delivered to customers in 2024. Only 40 units will be produced with a limited price of 4 million USD , equivalent to more than 4.3 million USD . |
