Bugatti has unveiled the F.K.P. Hommage, the second masterpiece of its exclusive Programme Solitaire. This ultra‑rare hypercar draws its soul from the very first Bugatti Veyron and serves as a heartfelt homage to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who helped shape the iconic W16 engine.
Exterior: Artistry in Aluminium and Carbon
The Hommage’s body is sculpted from a single block of machined aluminium, featuring a dramatically enlarged front air intake and an expanded, 3‑D horse‑shoe grille. A special two‑tone paint finish coats the car: a deep, glossy red sits atop a silver‑aluminium base, delivering a striking depth‑of‑field effect that changes with the light.
Exposed black carbon fibre replaces conventional black paint, creating a subtle contrast enhanced by a 10 % black pigment blended into the clear coat. The result is a tactile, high‑contrast surface that both looks and feels premium.
Chrome‑plated 12‑spoke wheels echo the original Veyron design—20 inches up front and 21 inches at the rear—fitted with bespoke Michelin tires for optimal grip.
Lighting and Aerodynamics
The front and rear lighting clusters are reinterpreted with a modern aesthetic while retaining the classic hypercar silhouette, including the signature large rear air vents that pay tribute to the Veyron’s aerodynamic heritage.
Interior: Bespoke Luxury Meets Bauhaus Elegance
Inside, the Hommage breaks from the leather‑laden tradition of previous Bugatti models. Seats, panels, and the steering wheel are upholstered in Car Couture fabric—a Paris‑crafted material originally showcased on the Bugatti Tourbillon. The steering wheel adopts the round Bauhaus‑style design of the original Veyron.
Door panels blend Car Couture fabric with premium brown leather, echoing the interior language of the Chiron. The central console and transmission tunnel are handcrafted from solid aluminium blocks, each piece finished to a mirror‑like sheen. A 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch face adorns the console, underscoring the car’s ultra‑exclusive nature.
Personal touches include a knee‑area plaque signed by racing legend Pierre Veyron and a dedication to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, while the front apron proudly displays the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo.
Powertrain: The Legendary W16 Engine
At its core, the Hommage houses the same 8.0‑litre W16 powerplant that powers the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. The engine delivers an astonishing 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, mated to a 7‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox and an all‑wheel‑drive system for relentless performance.
While acceleration figures and top‑speed limits remain under wraps, the car’s raw power promises a driving experience that rivals the very best in the hypercar segment.
Exclusivity and Heritage
Programme Solitaire is designed to produce a maximum of two cars per year, each built from the ground up with bespoke exterior, interior, and personalized details. The F.K.P. Hommage is the second offering in this exclusive line, continuing Bugatti’s tradition of celebrating its storied past while pushing the boundaries of modern automotive art.
The identity of the owner of this singular piece remains a well‑kept secret, adding an extra layer of intrigue to an already legendary vehicle.
Why It Matters
The Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage isn’t just a car; it’s a moving tribute to a pioneering engineer and a celebration of the design language that defined an era. For collectors and enthusiasts, it represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship, performance, and automotive heritage.
