Bugatti has unveiled the second masterpiece of its exclusive Programme Solitaire – the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. Inspired by the very first Bugatti Veyron, this one‑off hypercar is a heartfelt salute to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who championed the W‑16 engine architecture that made the Veyron possible.
Design – A Modern reinterpretation of a classic
The Hommage reimagines the Veyron’s iconic silhouette with several bold updates. A massive wind‑tunnel inlet dominates the front, while a 3‑D horse‑shaped grille, milled from a solid block of aluminium, widens the car’s breathing capacity. The body is finished in a specially formulated deep‑red paint that sits over a silver‑aluminium primer, creating a striking depth‑of‑field effect that changes as light moves across the surface.
Exterior Details
- Carbon‑fiber exposed trim in matte black replaces traditional black paint, accented with a subtle 10% black pigment in the clear coat for a tactile visual contrast.
- Chrome‑plated 12‑spoke wheels echo the original Veyron design – 20 inches up front, 21 inches at the rear – fitted with dedicated Michelin tires.
- Updated LED head‑ and tail‑light clusters retain the classic Veyron language while adding a contemporary edge.
- Two large air scoops behind the cockpit stay true to the heritage hypercar silhouette.
Interior – Bespoke luxury meets Bauhaus heritage
Inside, the Hommage breaks from the leather‑laden cabins of the Chiron and W‑16 Mistral. The steering wheel returns to the round, Bauhaus‑inspired shape first seen on the Veyron. Seats and panels are upholstered in an exclusive “Car Couture” fabric produced in Paris, a material originally showcased on the Bugatti Tourbillon concept.
Door panels adopt a hybrid of Car Couture fabric and premium brown leather, while the central console, gearbox housing, and rear bulkhead are handcrafted from solid aluminium blocks. A 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch faces the driver, underscoring the car’s watch‑maker level of craftsmanship.
Personal touches include a signed plaque from racing legend Pierre Veyron, and a dedication engraved with Ferdinand K. Piëch’s initials and birthdate. The front apron proudly displays the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo.
Powertrain – Pure W‑16 performance
Under the bonnet lies an 8.0 L W‑16 engine borrowed from the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport, delivering a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque. Power is sent through a seven‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox to a permanent four‑wheel‑drive system, preserving the raw performance DNA of the original Veyron.
Specific acceleration figures and top‑speed numbers have not been disclosed, and the identity of the exclusive owner remains a secret.
Production – Ultra‑limited heritage program
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second creation of Programme Solitaire, which caps production at two cars per year. Each vehicle is a total redesign – from chassis to cabin – that tells a new chapter of Bugatti’s legacy.
Conclusion
With its blend of historic reverence, avant‑garde materials, and relentless performance, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a moving tribute to the engineer who helped define an era of automotive excellence.
