The Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage reimagines the legendary Veyron with bespoke design, a 1,600‑hp W16 engine, and Coachbuild details. Explore its story today.
Bugatti has unveiled the second masterpiece from its exclusive Programme Solitaire – the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. Inspired by the original 2005 Bugatti Veyron, the one‑off hypercar pays homage to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who championed the W16 powerplant that defined the Veyron’s legend.
Design Inspiration
The Hommage reinterprets the classic Veyron silhouette, accentuated by an enlarged front air intake and an expanded, three‑dimensional “horse‑bit” grille machined from a solid block of aluminium. A striking two‑tone paint finish combines a deep ruby red overlay with a silver‑aluminium base, delivering a vivid depth‑of‑field effect.
Exterior Highlights
- Carbon‑fiber exposed accents in matte black replace traditional black paint, creating a subtle contrast with a 10 % black pigment in the glossy red coat.
- Custom 12‑spoke chrome‑plated wheels – 20 inches at the front, 21 inches at the rear – fitted with bespoke Michelin tires.
- Modernized front and rear light clusters echo the Veyron’s heritage while adopting a contemporary aesthetic.
- Two large roof‑mounted air intakes retain the classic hypercar silhouette.
Interior Craftsmanship
The cabin is a departure from the Chiron and the upcoming W16 Mistral, featuring a round Bauhaus‑style steering wheel reminiscent of the original Veyron. Instead of conventional leather, Bugatti employs its exclusive Car Couture woven fabric, first seen on the Tourbillon concept, offering a tactile and visual richness.
Door cut‑outs and central console surfaces are wrapped in the same Car Couture material, complemented by premium brown leather inserts. The transmission tunnel and central hub are hand‑crafted from solid aluminium, housing a limited‑edition 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch.
A tribute plaque bears the signature of racing legend Pierre Veyron, alongside Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birthdate. The front “Solitaire” coachbuild logo adorns the bumper.
Powertrain
At its heart lies an 8.0‑liter W16 engine, identical to the one powering the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport, delivering an astonishing 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque. Power is sent through a seven‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox to a permanent all‑wheel‑drive system.
While official acceleration and top‑speed figures remain undisclosed, the engine’s output guarantees performance on par with Bugatti’s most extreme hypercars.
Exclusivity
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second bespoke project of Programme Solitaire, which limits production to just two cars per year. Each vehicle is a fully custom build, from bodywork to interior details, crafted to celebrate Bugatti’s heritage.
The identity of the buyer remains confidential, adding an aura of mystery to this collectible masterpiece.
Collectible Legacy
With its blend of historic reverence, cutting‑edge engineering, and artisanal craftsmanship, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a testament to the brand’s enduring pursuit of automotive perfection.
