Design & Looks
The FKP Hommage lives in Bugatti’s Solitaire studio, the department that builds bespoke one‑offs. Its name honours Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the former VW chief who championed the Veyron project. The car sits on a Chiron chassis but looks back at the 2005 Veyron 16.4. Highlights include:
- A three‑dimensional, upright horseshoe grille.
- L‑shaped LED headlights that give the front a focused stare.
- Wider front cooling apertures to feed the larger W‑16.
- Staggered wheels – 20‑inch up front, 21‑inch at the rear – a detail first planned for the Veyron.
- Two‑tone paint: a rich red body paired with exposed carbon‑fibre rear panels.
The interior is a showcase of craftsmanship: a single‑piece aluminium centre console, Paris‑woven fabrics, and a 43 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch that runs automatically.
Performance & Mileage
The heart of the Hommage is a quad‑turbo W‑16 that produces 1,578 bhp, the same unit first seen in the Chiron Super Sport. Bugatti upgraded the cooling system, added larger intercoolers, and reinforced the gearbox to handle the extra power. While official fuel‑efficiency numbers haven’t been released, the car is expected to match the Veyron’s real‑world mileage of roughly 8–10 mpg (3–4 km/l) given the similar engine layout.
Price & Rivals
Bugatti has not announced an exact price, but the company confirmed the bill will be well above €10 million (£8.8 m). That puts the Hommage in the same league as the £11.3 m La Voiture Noire and other ultra‑exclusive hyper‑cars such as the Pagani Huayra Roadster and the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut.
