Bugatti has officially unveiled its latest masterpiece: the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. The one‑off hypercar is the second creation under the exclusive Programme Solitaire coach‑building initiative, designed as a heartfelt tribute to Ferdinand Karl Piëch and the very first Bugatti Veyron.
Design Inspiration & Heritage
Drawing directly from the 2005 Veyron prototype, the F.K.P. Hommage reinterprets the classic silhouette while celebrating the engineering legacy forged by Piëch. It commemorates his pioneering work on the W16 power unit that became the heart of the Veyron and its successors.
Exterior: A Fresh Yet Familiar Presence
The rear‑mounted, oversized air intakes are enlarged for a more aggressive stance, and the iconic horse‑shaped 3D‑mesh grille has been meticulously milled from a single block of aluminium. A specially formulated two‑tone paint scheme layers a silver‑aluminium base beneath a translucent, high‑gloss red coat, delivering striking depth and a three‑dimensional visual effect.
Exposed carbon‑fiber trim in matte black replaces traditional black paint, creating a subtle contrast with a 10% black pigment blended into the clear coat. The result is a tactile surface that catches the eye from every angle.
Rolling on bespoke 12‑spoke chrome‑plated wheels—20 inches up front and 21 inches at the rear—each tire is fitted with a dedicated Michelin tyre, echoing the original Veyron’s performance pedigree.
Interior: Bespoke Luxury Meets Bauhaus Elegance
The cabin is a departure from the Chiron and W16 Mistral line‑ups, featuring a round steering wheel inspired by the Veyron’s Bauhaus aesthetic. Instead of conventional leather, Bugatti employs its exclusive Car Couture woven fabric, first introduced on the Tourbillon concept, adding a Parisian haute‑couture flair.
Door panels inherit the Car Couture finish, accented with premium brown leather. The central console and transmission tunnel are hand‑crafted from solid aluminium billets, each piece precisely machined for a flawless fit.
At the centre of the dash sits a custom‑made 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch, while the knee‑rest area bears the signature of racing legend Pierre Veyron and the initials and birthdate of Ferdinand Karl Piëch. The front grille proudly displays the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo.
Powertrain & Performance
Under the sleek bonnet lies the legendary 8.0‑litre W16 engine, borrowed from the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport, delivering a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque. Power is sent through a seven‑speed dual‑clutch transmission to an all‑wheel‑drive system, preserving the extraordinary performance standards of the brand.
Specific acceleration figures and top‑speed numbers have not been disclosed, and the identity of the exclusive owner remains under wraps.
Limited Production & Collectibility
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second masterpiece from Programme Solitaire, which limits production to a maximum of two units per year. Each vehicle is a completely re‑engineered body, interior, and bespoke detail package, crafted to narrate Bugatti’s rich heritage.
Given its singular nature, the Hommage is poised to become one of the most coveted collector cars in the ultra‑luxury segment.
Conclusion
With the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage, the French automaker not only honors a pivotal figure in its history but also showcases the pinnacle of bespoke automotive artistry. This one‑off hypercar stands as a timeless bridge between the legendary Veyron and the future of high‑performance luxury.
