Discover the limited‑edition Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, a handcrafted tribute to the original Veyron and Ferdinand Karl Piëch. Explore the specs now!
Bugatti has unveiled the second masterpiece of its exclusive Programme Solitaire—the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. This one‑off hypercar draws inspiration from the very first Bugatti Veyron and pays heartfelt tribute to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who laid the groundwork for the legendary W16 powerplant.
Design Philosophy
The Hommage reimagines the classic Veyron silhouette with modern aerodynamics. A massive front air intake, a widened 3D‑horse‑shaped grille milled from a solid block of aluminium, and an aggressive roof‑line give the car a fresh, purposeful stance while honoring its heritage.
Exterior Highlights
- Signature Red Paint: A multi‑layer coating blends a silver aluminium base with a transparent ruby‑red topcoat, delivering striking depth and a three‑dimensional visual effect.
- Exposed Carbon Fibre: Black carbon trim replaces conventional black paint, contrasting with a subtle 10% black pigment within the clear coat for a tactile, high‑tech look.
- Chrome‑Plated Wheels: Hand‑crafted 12‑spoke wheels (20″ front, 21″ rear) echo the original Veyron design and are wrapped in bespoke Michelin tires.
- Modern Lighting: Updated head‑ and tail‑lamp clusters adopt a contemporary aesthetic while retaining the classic large rear air‑ducts that define the Veyron’s hypercar lineage.
Interior Luxury
Inside, the Hommage breaks away from the Chiron and W16 Mistral DNA. It features a round, Bauhaus‑style steering wheel reminiscent of the original Veyron. Instead of traditional leather, the cabin is upholstered in exclusive Car Couture fabric—first introduced on the Bugatti Tourbillon—crafted in Paris for a refined, tactile experience.
Door panels inherit the Car Couture‑treated surfaces seen on the Chiron, blended with premium brown leather accents. The centre console and transmission tunnel are machined from solid aluminium, each piece bespoke. A 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch embeds into the centre console, underscoring the car’s horological heritage.
Personal touches include Pierre Veyron’s signature on the knee‑rest area, alongside Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birthdate. The front beltline proudly displays the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo.
Powertrain
At its heart lies an 8.0‑litre W16 engine, identical to the one powering the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. The four‑turbo unit delivers a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, mated to a seven‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox and permanent all‑wheel drive.
Performance figures such as 0‑100 km/h acceleration and top speed remain undisclosed, preserving the mystique of this singular vehicle.
Production & Exclusivity
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second creation under the Programme Solitaire, a hyper‑exclusive coach‑build initiative limited to a maximum of two cars per year. Each project is a complete redesign of bodywork, interior, and personalized details, crafted to narrate a distinct chapter of Bugatti’s legendary heritage.
The identity of the buyer has not been revealed, adding to the aura surrounding this unique tribute.
For enthusiasts and collectors eager to experience the pinnacle of automotive artistry, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a timeless ode to engineering excellence and design heritage.
