Overview
Bugatti has unveiled the second masterpiece of its ultra‑exclusive Programme Solitaire – the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. Inspired by the very first Bugatti Veyron, this one‑off hypercar honors Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the engineer who laid the groundwork for the legendary W16 engine.
Exterior Design
The Hommage pushes the Veyron’s iconic silhouette into a new realm of artful engineering:
- Massive, sculpted air intakes that dominate the front fascia.
- A 3‑D horse‑shoe grille milled from solid aluminium and widened for a more aggressive look.
- Special‑edition deep‑red paint applied over a silver aluminium primer, creating a striking three‑dimensional visual effect.
- Exposed black carbon‑fiber trim that replaces traditional black paint, enhanced with a 10% black pigment in a clear topcoat for tactile contrast.
- Chrome‑finished 12‑spoke wheels – 20″ up front, 21″ rear – paired with bespoke Michelin tires.
- Modernised front and rear lighting units that echo the Veyron’s design language while adding contemporary flair.
- Two large rear ventilation ducts preserved to retain the classic hypercar silhouette.
Interior Craftsmanship
Inside, the Hommage breaks from the Chiron and W16 Mistral conventions and returns to the Veyron’s roots, but with a luxurious twist:
- A round Bauhaus‑style steering wheel, a nod to the original Veyron.
- Exclusive Car Couture woven fabric from Paris – the same material showcased on the Bugatti Tourbillon – replaces traditional leather.
- Door panels wrapped in Car Couture with premium brown leather accents, borrowed from the Chiron’s interior.
- A completely bespoke centre console and transmission tunnel machined from solid aluminium.
- An Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon 41 mm clock integrated into the console, underscoring the watch‑maker partnership.
- A knee‑side plaque bearing Pierre Veyron’s signature alongside Ferdinand Piëch’s initials and birthdate.
- The “Solitaire” coach‑build logo proudly displayed on the front apron.
Powertrain
The heart of the Hommage is an 8.0‑litre W16 engine with four turbochargers, directly derived from the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. It delivers the same astonishing figures as its sibling:
- 1,600 hp (1,600 PS).
- 1,600 Nm of torque.
- 7‑speed dual‑clutch transmission.
- All‑wheel drive with permanent torque vectoring.
Performance metrics such as 0‑100 km/h acceleration and top speed have not been disclosed, preserving the mystery surrounding this singular vehicle.
Limited Production & Heritage Narrative
F.K.P. Hommage is the second bespoke project under Programme Solitaire, which caps production at a maximum of two cars per year. Each vehicle is a fully re‑imagined work of art – from bodywork to interior – designed to tell a chapter of Bugatti’s storied legacy. The owner’s identity remains confidential, adding to the car’s aura of exclusivity.
Conclusion
With its blend of historic homage, cutting‑edge engineering, and unparalleled craftsmanship, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a living tribute to both the Veyron’s pioneering spirit and Ferdinand Piëch’s visionary influence. It is a testament to Bugatti’s commitment to creating hypercars that are as much works of art as they are feats of performance.
