Bugatti has unveiled the second masterpiece from its ultra‑exclusive Programme Solitaire – the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. Inspired by the very first Bugatti Veyron and created as a tribute to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who laid the groundwork for the iconic W16 power‑train, this hypercar is a one‑off celebration of engineering heritage.
Stunning Design & Exterior Details
The Hommage reinterprets the classic Veyron silhouette with contemporary flair. Key highlights include:
- Massive aerodynamic vent openings that improve cooling while accentuating a muscular stance.
- Signature 3D horse‑shoe grille, enlarged and machined from a solid block of aluminium.
- Two‑tone paintwork: a deep, glossy red overlay atop a silver‑aluminium base, delivering vivid depth and a subtle 3‑D effect.
- Exposed carbon‑fiber trim finished in matte black, contrasted by a 10% black pigment mixed into the transparent clear coat for a tactile visual finish.
- Chrome‑plated 12‑spoke wheels – 20‑inch at the front, 21‑inch at the rear – paired with bespoke Michelin tires.
- Modernised front and rear lighting clusters that echo the original Veyron’s language while embracing today’s LED technology.
Crafted Interior – A New Take on Classic Luxury
The cabin abandons the traditional leather of the Veyron in favour of Car Couture – a proprietary woven fabric developed in Paris and first showcased on the Bugatti Tourbillon concept. Complementary Car Couture‑wrapped door panels feature sumptuous brown premium leather inserts, creating a timeless yet avant‑garde ambience.
Other interior highlights include:
- A round, Bauhaus‑style steering wheel reminiscent of the original Veyron.
- A bespoke centre console and transmission tunnel, CNC‑machined from solid aluminium blocks.
- An Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon 41 mm dial mounted on the centre console, emphasizing the watch‑making heritage of the brand.
- Personalised knee‑level plaques bearing Pierre Veyron’s signature and Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birthdate.
- The rear of the cockpit showcases the “Solitaire” coach‑build logo, underscoring the car’s limited‑edition status.
Heart of the Beast – The W16 Power‑Train
Under the sleek bonnet lies an 8.0‑litre W16 engine, directly derived from the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. The power unit delivers a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, mated to a seven‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox and all‑wheel drive, ensuring relentless performance.
While official acceleration figures and top‑speed numbers remain undisclosed, the sheer output guarantees that the Hommage will sit comfortably among the world’s most powerful production cars.
Exclusivity & Heritage
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second vehicle in the Programme Solitaire, a coach‑build initiative that produces a maximum of two cars per year. Each project is a fully bespoke reinterpretation of Bugatti’s bodywork, interior, and personalised touches, crafted to narrate a distinct chapter of the marque’s storied legacy.
Ownership details for this singular hypercar have not been revealed, adding an additional layer of mystique to its allure.
Conclusion
With its reverent design cues, luxurious bespoke interior, and unabated W16 performance, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a rolling tribute to both the historic Veyron and the visionary Ferdinand Karl Piëch. It epitomises the marriage of heritage and cutting‑edge craftsmanship that defines Bugatti’s ultra‑luxury hypercars.
