Discover the exclusive Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, a one‑off tribute to Ferdinand Karl Piëch and the original Veyron. Explore its design, specs and legacy now.
Bugatti has unveiled the F.K.P. Hommage, the second masterpiece in its exclusive Programme Solitaire series. Limited to just one unit per year, this hyper‑car is a heartfelt homage to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who helped bring the original Bugatti Veyron to life and pioneered the W16 engine architecture.
Design and Exterior
The Hommage draws its silhouette from the very first Veyron, but receives a modern reinterpretation. A massive front air‑intake, a newly sculpted 3‑D horse‑bit grille, and a flush‑mounted carbon‑fiber diffuser give the car an aggressive, yet elegant, presence. The body is finished in a special two‑tone paint: a deep, glossy red over a silver‑aluminum base, creating a striking depth‑effect that shifts with the light.
Carbon Details & Contrast
Exposed carbon‑fiber accents replace traditional black paint, while a subtle 10% black pigment is infused in the clear coat to add tactile richness and visual contrast. The result is a surface that feels as premium as it looks.
Wheels and Tires
Originality continues with bespoke 12‑spoke chrome‑plated wheels—20‑inch at the front and 21‑inch at the rear—paired with dedicated Michelin tires that hug the alloy arches perfectly.
Lighting
Both the front and rear light clusters have been restyled with contemporary LED technology while respecting the classic Veyron language. The large rear air‑extractor, a signature hyper‑car feature, remains prominently positioned.
Interior – A New Take on a Classic
Inside, the Hommage abandons the usual leather for a bespoke fabric named Car Couture, handcrafted in Paris and first seen on the Bugatti Tourbillon. The steering wheel returns to the iconic round Bauhaus shape made famous by the Veyron.
Door panels echo the Chiron’s luxurious trim, wrapped in the same exclusive Car Couture material combined with premium brown leather. The central console and gearbox housing are machined from solid aluminium blocks, each piece uniquely bespoke.
A special highlight is a 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon clock integrated into the center console, underscoring the watch‑maker’s partnership with Bugatti.
Heritage Touches
Personalized details celebrate both legends: the knee‑area garnish bears the signature of racing driver Pierre Veyron, while a plaque beside it displays Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birth date. The front apron is adorned with the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo, denoting the program’s exclusivity.
Powertrain
At its heart lies an 8.0‑liter W16 engine equipped with four turbochargers, identical to the unit powering the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. It delivers a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, mated to a 7‑speed dual‑clutch transmission and permanent all‑wheel drive.
While acceleration figures and top‑speed numbers remain under wraps, the mechanical pedigree promises performance on par with Bugatti’s most extreme creations.
Production & Legacy
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second project of Programme Solitaire, which aims to craft no more than two cars per year, each rebuilt from the ground up. Every vehicle tells a new chapter of Bugatti’s storied heritage, blending timeless design with cutting‑edge craftsmanship.
As of now, the identity of the exclusive owner has not been disclosed, preserving the aura of mystery that surrounds this singular masterpiece.
