Discover the ultra‑limited Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, a hand‑crafted tribute to the original Veyron and Ferdinand Karl Piëch. Explore its design and power today!
Bugatti has unveiled the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, the second masterpiece of its exclusive Programme Solitaire series. This one‑off hypercar draws inspiration from the very first Bugatti Veyron, paying homage to automotive pioneer Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary behind the original W‑16 powerplant.
Design Philosophy
The Hommage reimagines the classic Veyron silhouette with a dramatic, oversized front air intake and a signature 3‑D “horse‑hair” grille machined from a solid block of aluminium. A specially formulated red paint sits atop a silver‑aluminium base, delivering a striking depth‑of‑field effect that changes with the light.
Exterior Features
- Large, sculpted air vents that echo the original Veyron’s aerodynamics.
- 12‑spoke chrome‑plated wheels – 20‑inch at the front, 21‑inch at the rear – paired with dedicated Michelin tires.
- Exposed black carbon‑fiber accents replacing traditional black paint, contrasted with a subtle 10 % black pigment in the clear coat for a tactile visual finish.
- Modernised front and rear light clusters that respect the Veyron’s heritage while adding contemporary flair.
Interior Craftsmanship
The cabin is a departure from the leather‑laden interiors of the Chiron and W‑16 Mistral. Instead, Bugatti employs exclusive “Car Couture” woven fabric, originally showcased on the Bugatti Tourbillon, for seats, doors and trim. The steering wheel retains the iconic round Bauhaus design of the Veyron.
Additional bespoke touches include:
- Door panels wrapped in Car Couture fabric combined with premium brown leather.
- A handcrafted centre console and transmission tunnel made from solid aluminium blocks.
- An Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon 41 mm watch embedded within the console.
- Personalised inscriptions – Pierre Veyron’s signature beside Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birthdate – and the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo.
Powertrain & Performance
At its heart lies the legendary 8.0‑litre W‑16 engine with four turbochargers, borrowed from the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. The unit delivers a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, coupled with a seven‑speed dual‑clutch transmission and permanent all‑wheel drive. Exact acceleration figures and top‑speed numbers remain under wraps.
Exclusivity
The F.K.P. Hommage is part of the ultra‑limited Programme Solitaire, which caps production at two cars per year. Each vehicle is a completely re‑engineered example, from bodywork to interior, crafted to narrate Bugatti’s storied heritage.
Conclusion
With its reverent design cues, luxurious bespoke materials, and unbridled performance, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as the ultimate tribute to the Veyron and the legacy of Ferdinand Karl Piëch. Stay tuned for future updates on this singular hypercar.
