Explore the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, a one‑off hypercar honoring Ferdinand Karl Piëch and the original Veyron. See its design, specs, and legacy now!
Bugatti has unveiled its second masterpiece under the exclusive Programme Solitaire – the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. Inspired by the very first Bugatti Veyron and dedicated to the visionary Ferdinand Karl Piëch, this singular hypercar blends historic reverence with cutting‑edge craftsmanship.
Design Inspiration
The Hommage draws directly from the original Veyron’s silhouette, reimagining classic cues with modern engineering. Large front air intakes, a sculpted horse‑shaped 3D grille, and a widened rear diffuser echo the 2005 supercar while pushing aerodynamics to new extremes.
Exterior Highlights
- Racing‑red finish: Multiple‑layer metal‑based coating creates a deep, three‑dimensional shine over a silver‑aluminium primer.
- Exposed carbon‑fiber weave: Black carbon accents replace traditional paint, contrasting with a 10% black pigment mixed into the transparent clear coat for tactile depth.
- Chrome‑plated 12‑spoke wheels: 20‑inch front and 21‑inch rear rims, bespoke to the Veyron’s original design, paired with Michelin single‑size tires.
- Modernised lighting: Updated front and rear clusters retain the historic look but use contemporary LED technology.
- Signature rear air vents: Two large scoops behind the cockpit preserve the classic hypercar’s aerodynamic signature.
Interior Craftsmanship
The cabin is entirely new, departing from the Chiron and the W16 Mistral. It features a round Bauhaus‑style steering wheel reminiscent of the Veyron, but the upholstery is a exclusive Paris‑crafted fabric called Car Couture, first shown on the Bugatti Tourbillon.
Door panels borrow the Car Couture material from the Chiron, wrapped in premium brown leather. The central console and transmission tunnel are hand‑finished from solid aluminium blocks, and a 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch face is integrated as a unique timepiece.
Personal touches include Pierre Veyron’s signature on the knee‑area garnish, alongside Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birth date. The front pedal box bears the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo.
Powertrain
At the heart of the F.K.P. Hommage lies the legendary 8.0‑litre W16 engine, the same unit that powers the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. Delivering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, the power is routed through a 7‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox to a permanent four‑wheel‑drive system.
Performance figures such as 0‑60 mph acceleration and top speed have not been disclosed, and the identity of the exclusive owner remains confidential.
Production & Legacy
F.K.P. Hommage is the second creation from Programme Solitaire, a highly selective coach‑building initiative that caps production at two units per year. Each vehicle is a fully bespoke project, reinventing the bodywork, interior, and personal details to chronicle an aspect of Bugatti’s heritage.
With its singular presence and profound homage to both Ferdinand Karl Piëch and the historic Veyron, the F.K.P. Hommage stands as a living museum piece—an ultra‑rare celebration of automotive artistry.
