Overview of the F.K.P. Hommage
Bugatti has unveiled the F.K.P. Hommage, the second masterpiece of its exclusive Programme Solitaire. Only a single unit is produced each year, making the car one of the most coveted hypercars on the market. The model pays homage to Ferdinand Karl Piëch – the visionary who laid the foundation for Bugatti’s legendary W16 engine – and to the very first Bugatti Veyron ever built.
Design Inspiration and Exterior Styling
Drawing direct inspiration from the original Veyron, the Hommage features oversized air intakes, a dramatically enlarged 3D horse‑shoe grille machined from a solid aluminum block, and a striking two‑tone paint finish. The exterior is cloaked in a bespoke deep‑red lacquer applied over a silver‑aluminum primer, creating a visual depth that shifts with the light. Exposed black carbon‑fiber accents replace traditional black paint, while a subtle 10% black pigment blended into the clear coat adds a tactile contrast.
- Large aerodynamic vents that echo the 2005 Veyron silhouette
- 3D‑shaped horse‑shoe grille, hand‑crafted from aluminium
- Exclusive red‑on‑silver metallic finish with multi‑layer coating
- Visible black carbon‑fiber trim for a sophisticated contrast
Wheel and Lighting Design
The car rides on a set of chrome‑plated 12‑spoke wheels – 20 inches at the front and 21 inches at the rear – wrapped in bespoke Michelin tires. Modernised front and rear light clusters retain the classic Veyron language while employing contemporary LED technology. Two large rear air scoops preserve the hypercar’s iconic ventilation system.
Interior Craftsmanship
Inside, the F.K.P. Hommage diverges from the Chiron and the W16 Mistral, featuring a round Bauhaus‑style steering wheel reminiscent of the original Veyron. Instead of traditional leather, the cockpit is upholstered with Car Couture – an exclusive Paris‑made woven fabric first showcased on the Bugatti Tourbillon concept. Door panels blend this fabric with premium brown leather, while the central console and transmission tunnel are machined from solid aluminium blocks.
A centerpiece of the interior is a 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch, seamlessly integrated into the dashboard. The knee‑side panels are signed by racing legend Pierre Veyron, alongside the initials and birthdate of Ferdinand Karl Piëch. The front apron bears the Programme Solitaire coach‑building logo.
Powertrain and Performance
At its heart lies the 8.0‑liter W16 engine borrowed from the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport, delivering a breathtaking 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque. Power is sent through a seven‑speed dual‑clutch transmission to an all‑wheel‑drive system that operates full‑time. Acceleration times and top‑speed figures have not been released, preserving the mystique of this singular vehicle.
Exclusivity and Legacy
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second offering from Programme Solitaire, which caps production at two cars per year. Each vehicle is a fully bespoke reinterpretation of the chassis, interior, and personalised details, crafted to narrate Bugatti’s storied heritage. The identity of the owner remains confidential, underscoring the car’s aura of secrecy and prestige.
