Bugatti has officially unveiled the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, the second masterpiece of its exclusive Programme Solitaire series. Limited to just two units a year, this hyper‑car is a heartfelt tribute to Ferdinand Karl Piëch – the visionary behind the W16 engine – and to the very first Bugatti Veyron ever built.
Design Inspiration: The Original Veyron Reimagined
The F.K.P. Hommage draws its DNA from the historic Veyron, but every line is freshly sculpted. A larger, aggressive air intake, an expanded 3‑D horse‑shoe grille milled from a solid aluminium block, and a striking red‑on‑silver paint finish set it apart while echoing the classic silhouette.
Exterior Highlights
- Signature Red‑Silver Paint: Multiple‑layer coating with a silver aluminium base creates depth and a vivid three‑dimensional effect.
- Exposed Black Carbon Fiber: Replaces traditional black paint, contrasting with a subtle 10% black pigment in the clear coat for a tactile visual richness.
- Chrome‑Plated 12‑Spoke Wheels: 20‑inch front and 21‑inch rear, bespoke design mirroring the original Veyron, fitted with dedicated Michelin tires.
- Modernised Lighting: Updated front and rear clusters retain the classic hyper‑car silhouette while offering contemporary illumination.
- Rear Air Ducts: Two oversized suction doors behind the cockpit pay homage to the vintage Veyron’s engineering cues.
Interior Craftsmanship
The cabin is a departure from the Chiron and W16 Mistral, featuring a round Bauhaus‑style steering wheel reminiscent of the early Veyron.
Instead of conventional leather, Bugatti employs its exclusive Car Couture woven fabric, first introduced on the Tourbillon concept. Door panels blend this material with premium brown leather, creating a luxurious yet contemporary feel.
Center console and transmission tunnel are hand‑crafted from solid aluminium, each piece bespoke. A 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch graces the central console, underscoring the watch‑maker’s partnership.
Special touches include Pierre Veyron’s signature on the knee‑rest, Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birthdate beside it, and the Programme Solitaire “coachbuild” logo on the front apron.
Powertrain – The Heart of the Beast
Under the sculpted bonnet lies the legendary 8.0‑litre W16 engine, identical to the one found in the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. It delivers an astonishing 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, paired with a 7‑speed dual‑clutch transmission and permanent all‑wheel drive.
While official acceleration figures and top‑speed numbers remain under wraps, the specifications promise performance on par with the most extreme hypercars ever built.
Limited Production & Heritage
F.K.P. Hommage is the second bespoke creation of the Programme Solitaire initiative, which caps output at two cars per year. Each vehicle is a fully reimagined masterpiece—from bodywork to interior—designed to tell a unique chapter of Bugatti’s storied heritage.
The identity of the lucky owner has not been disclosed, preserving the aura of mystery that surrounds Bugatti’s most exclusive offerings.
Conclusion
With its blend of cutting‑edge engineering, artisanal craftsmanship, and a clear nod to the brand’s illustrious past, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a timeless tribute to both an engineering legend and the iconic Veyron that set a new benchmark for speed.
