The exclusive Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage pays tribute to Ferdinand Karl Piëch and the original Veyron, featuring a handcrafted W16 engine and bespoke interior. Explore this limited masterpiece today.
Bugatti has unveiled the spectacular Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, the second masterpiece of its ultra‑exclusive Programme Solitaire. Inspired by the very first Bugatti Veyron, the car serves as a heartfelt tribute to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who laid the foundation for the legendary W16 engine.
Design Inspiration
The Hommage draws directly from the classic Veyron silhouette while adding modern, race‑ready elements. Large aerodynamic vents dominate the front, and the iconic horse‑shaped 3D grille is broadened and machined from a solid aluminium block, giving the car a bold, muscular stance.
Exterior Craftsmanship
- Special‑edition deep‑red paint finished with a multi‑layer process: a silver aluminium base beneath a transparent glossy red coat creates an eye‑catching three‑dimensional effect.
- Exposed carbon‑fiber trim in black replaces traditional black paint, subtly contrasted with a 10% black pigment in the clear coat for a richer visual texture.
- Chrome‑plated 12‑spoke wheels, 20″ in the front and 21″ in the rear, echo the original Veyron design and are paired with bespoke Michelin tires.
- Updated front and rear lighting signatures maintain the Veyron’s heritage while embracing contemporary LED technology.
- The rear retains the classic hyper‑car sized air intakes, preserving the silhouette that defines the original model.
Bespoke Interior
The cabin is a complete departure from the Chiron and the W16 Mistral, featuring a round, Bauhaus‑style steering wheel reminiscent of the early Veyron. Instead of traditional leather, Bugatti uses its exclusive Car Couture woven fabric, first showcased on the Tourbillon concept, providing a luxurious yet tactile experience.
Door panels inherit the Car Couture finish from the Chiron, blended with premium brown leather for a sophisticated contrast. The central console, gearbox housing, and transmission tunnel are hand‑crafted from solid aluminium blocks, each piece bespoke to the vehicle.
A 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch dial crowns the centre console, while the knee‑side panel bears the signature of racing legend Pierre Veyron alongside Piëch’s initials and birth date. The front apron is emblazoned with the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo, underscoring the one‑off nature of the project.
Powertrain Details
Under the bonnet lies the heart of the Hommage: an 8.0 L W16 engine equipped with four turbochargers, the same powerhouse found in the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. It delivers a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, mated to a 7‑speed dual‑clutch transmission and permanent all‑wheel drive.
While official acceleration figures and top‑speed numbers are still under wraps, the engine’s output ensures the Hommage sits firmly in the elite supercar bracket.
Exclusivity and Production
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second vehicle from Programme Solitaire, a coach‑build initiative that limits production to just two units per year. Each car is a fully re‑engineered masterpiece—body, interior, and personalized details are all tailored to celebrate Bugatti’s storied heritage.
As of now, the identity of the lucky owner remains confidential, adding an extra layer of mystique to this already legendary machine.
