Discover the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage—a unique hypercar honoring the Veyron and Ferdinand Karl Piëch, with a handcrafted W16 engine and bespoke carbon‑fiber detail. Explore 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, while paying heartfelt homage to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who laid the groundwork for the iconic W16 power unit.
Exterior: Bold Design Meets Bespoke Craftsmanship
The Hommage features a dramatically enlarged front air intake and a signature three‑dimensional horse‑head grille, machined from a solid block of aluminium. A special two‑tone paint scheme adds depth: a glossy, transparent red coat sits atop a silver‑metallic aluminium base, creating a striking three‑dimensional visual effect.
Exposed carbon‑fiber elements are finished in a deep black, contrasting with a subtle 10% black pigment blended into the clear coat. This combination delivers a tactile and visual richness rarely seen on production cars.
- Front wheels: 20‑inch chrome‑plated 12‑spoke rims, reminiscent of the original Veyron design.
- Rear wheels: 21‑inch chrome‑plated rims, shod with dedicated Michelin tires.
- Updated LED head‑ and tail‑lights echo the classic Veyron silhouette while adding modern clarity.
- Two large aerodynamic vents remain behind the cabin, preserving the hypercar’s historic airflow architecture.
Interior: Luxury Redefined with Parisian Craft
The cabin departs from the traditional leather of the Veyron, opting instead for Car Couture fabric – a proprietary textile developed in Paris and first showcased on the Bugatti Tourbillon. This material offers a sumptuous feel and unique visual texture.
Door panels borrow from the Chiron’s design, wrapped in Car Couture combined with premium brown leather for a refined contrast. The centre console and drivetrain tunnel are hand‑crafted from solid aluminium blocks, embodying the bespoke philosophy of the Programme Solitaire.
At the heart of the dash sits an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon with a 41 mm dial, underscoring the car’s watch‑maker level of precision.
Special touches include:
- A signature from racing legend Pierre Veyron on the knee‑rest support.
- Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birthdate engraved beside the signature.
- The “Solitaire” coach‑build logo prominently displayed on the front apron.
Powertrain: The Same 1,600‑HP W16 That Defined an Era
Under the sculpted bonnet lies an 8.0‑litre W16 engine equipped with four turbochargers – the same powerhouse that propelled the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. The engine delivers an astonishing 1,600 horsepower and 1,600 Nm of torque, mated to a seven‑speed dual‑clutch transmission and permanent all‑wheel drive.
While exact acceleration figures and top‑speed numbers remain unrevealed, the mechanical pedigree suggests performance on par with the most extreme hypercars ever built.
Heritage and Production: A Collector’s Dream
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second exclusive vehicle from Programme Solitaire, which limits output to a maximum of two units per year. Each car is a fully re‑imagined expression of Bugatti’s legacy, featuring unique bodywork, interior, and personalized details that tell the story of the brand’s storied past.
To date, the identity of the lucky owner remains a closely guarded secret, adding an extra layer of intrigue to this already legendary creation.
For enthusiasts and collectors seeking the ultimate blend of automotive art, engineering mastery, and historic reverence, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a singular tribute to a legend that continues to shape the future of hypercars.
