Bugatti presents the FKP Hommage, a tribute to the original Veyron
The French brand Bugatti unveils a special project: the FKP Hommage. This unique model was born from a client's commission to celebrate the legacy of the brand's first modern hypercar, the Veyron, and to honor Ferdinand Karl Piëch. The car acts as a visual and conceptual bridge between Bugatti's revolutionary past and its technological present. 🚗
A design that reinterprets an icon
Bugatti's design team focuses on reinterpreting key features of the original Veyron for a contemporary language. They integrate the iconic roofline and the enormous front grille into a lower silhouette with an aggressive stance. Elements like the headlights and air intakes adopt more angular shapes, while the rear features brand-new ultra-thin OLED lights. The carbon blue finish combined with polished aluminum evokes the 2005 model without directly replicating it.
Key design elements:- Roofline and front grille inspired by the classic Veyron.
- Lower and more aggressive silhouette with angular-profile headlights.
- Thin OLED rear lights and redesigned air intake.
The FKP Hommage connects the revolutionary DNA of the Veyron with Bugatti's current aesthetics.
The power inherited from the legendary W16
To power this rolling tribute, Bugatti opts for its most emblematic powertrain. The FKP Hommage incorporates the 8.0-liter W16 engine with four turbochargers. This block delivers 1600 horsepower and a maximum torque of 1600 Nm, figures identical to those of the Chiron Super Sport. According to the brand, the car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.4 seconds and reach a top speed exceeding 440 km/h. An all-wheel-drive system and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission manage all this energy.
Main technical specifications:- 8.0-liter quad-turbo W16 engine with 1600 HP.
- 0-100 km/h acceleration in 2.4 seconds.
- Top speed exceeding 440 km/h.
A unique collector's piece
The FKP Hommage is conceived as a one-of-a-kind piece, manufactured under a specific client order. This fact underscores that, for certain collectors, it is possible to acquire a fragment of automotive history, even if its price reaches several million. This special project not only pays tribute but also confirms Bugatti's status for creating unrepeatable objects of desire. 💎
