Discover the ultra‑exclusive Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, a handcrafted tribute to the iconic Veyron and Ferdinand Karl Piëch. Explore the details now!
Bugatti has unveiled its second masterpiece from the exclusive Programme Solitaire: the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. Inspired by the very first Bugatti Veyron and created as a homage to the visionary Ferdinand Karl Piëch, this one‑off hypercar blends avant‑garde engineering with timeless artistry.
Design and Aerodynamics
The Hommage reinterprets the iconic Veyron silhouette while introducing a massive, functional air‑intake that accentuates its aggressive stance. A three‑dimensional, horse‑shoe‑shaped front grille, machined from a solid block of aluminium, expands the classic Bugatti face and improves cooling for the monstrous W16 powerplant.
Exterior Finishes
The body is cloaked in a bespoke two‑tone paint scheme. A deep, glossy red coat sits atop a metallic silver aluminium primer, delivering depth and a striking three‑dimensional shimmer under sunlight. Exposed carbon fibre panels are treated with a unique black resin, providing a subtle contrast to the translucent red and enhancing tactile appeal.
Wheels, Lighting and Aerodynamic Details
Dual 12‑spoke chrome‑plated wheels pay direct tribute to the original Veyron, measuring 20 inches at the front and 21 inches at the rear, wrapped in custom‑spec Michelin tires. The front and rear light clusters have been modernised, yet they echo the classic Veyron styling cues. Two sizeable rear air‑vents—hallmarks of vintage hypercars—remain, ensuring optimal airflow to the rear diffuser.
Interior Craftsmanship
Inside, the Hommage departs from the leather‑laden cabins of the Chiron and W16 Mistral, opting for Bugatti’s exclusive Car Couture fabric, a Paris‑crafted textile first seen on the Tourbillon concept. Door panels feature the same Car Couture material combined with premium brown leather inserts, delivering a luxurious yet contemporary feel.
The centre console and transmission tunnel are hand‑crafted from solid aluminium, each piece bespoke. A 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch face graces the instrument cluster, underscoring the car’s horological heritage.
Personal touches include a knee‑side plaque signed by racing legend Pierre Veyron, alongside the initials and birthdate of Ferdinand Karl Piëch. The front bumper proudly displays the “Solitaire” coach‑build badge.
Powertrain
At its heart beats an 8.0‑litre W16 engine, identical to the one that powers the Chiron Super Sport. The unit delivers a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, mated to a 7‑speed dual‑clutch transmission and an all‑wheel‑drive system that provides seamless power delivery.
Limited Production and Heritage
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second creation under Programme Solitaire, a project that deliberately limits output to no more than two vehicles per year. Each car is a completely reimagined package—bodywork, interior, and bespoke details—designed to narrate a new chapter in Bugatti’s storied legacy.
Details on performance figures and the identity of the fortunate owner remain under wraps, preserving the mystique that surrounds this singular tribute.
Conclusion
With its exquisite materials, handcrafted details, and a nod to both the legendary Veyron and Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as the ultimate expression of bespoke supercar engineering. It is not merely a car; it is a moving tribute to an automotive icon.
