Introduction
Bugatti has officially unveiled the F.K.P. Hommage, the second masterpiece in its exclusive Programme Solitaire series. Inspired by the very first Bugatti Veyron and dedicated to the visionary Ferdinand Karl Piëch, this ultra‑limited hypercar celebrates the engineering heritage that made the W16 powerplant possible.
Exterior Design – A Modern Take on a Classic
The Hommage reimagines the Veyron’s iconic silhouette with a massive, functional air intake and a striking 3D‑horse‑shoe grille machined from a solid block of aluminium. A specially formulated red paint sits atop a silver‑aluminium primer, creating a deep, three‑dimensional visual effect that changes with the light.
- Large, sculpted vent openings at the front and rear for enhanced airflow.
- Carbon‑fiber trim exposed in matte black, contrasted with a 10% black pigment mixed into a transparent clear coat for subtle texture.
- Chrome‑plated 12‑spoke wheels (20″ front, 21″ rear) paired with bespoke Michelin tires.
- Updated front and rear light clusters that echo the Veyron’s lineage while adding a contemporary flair.
Interior – Hand‑Crafted Luxury Meets Bauhaus Elegance
Inside, Bugatti departs from traditional leather in favor of its exclusive Car Couture fabric, a Paris‑crafted textile first seen on the Tourbillon concept. The round, Bauhaus‑style steering wheel pays homage to the original Veyron cockpit.
- Seat upholstery and door panels covered in Car Couture material blended with premium brown leather accents.
- A bespoke centre console and transmission tunnel machined from solid aluminium, featuring a 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon dial.
- Knee‑side plaques bearing the signature of racing legend Pierre Veyron, alongside Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birthdate.
- The “Solitaire” coach‑build logo subtly embossed on the front apron.
Powertrain – The Heart of a Legend
At its core, the F.K.P. Hommage houses an 8.0‑litre W16 engine equipped with four turbochargers—the same architecture that powers the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. The power output remains at an astonishing 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, mated to a seven‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox and Bugatti’s permanent all‑wheel‑drive system.
Performance figures such as 0‑60 mph acceleration and top speed have not yet been disclosed, and the identity of the exclusive owner remains under wraps.
Production Philosophy – Bespoke and Ultra‑Rare
F.K.P. Hommage is the second vehicle in the Programme Solitaire, a initiative that limits production to a maximum of two units per year. Each car is a completely new reinterpretation of Bugatti’s chassis, interior, and personalization options, aiming to tell a unique chapter of the brand’s storied heritage.
Conclusion
With its blend of historic tribute, cutting‑edge craftsmanship, and relentless performance, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a singular expression of automotive art. It not only honors the legacy of Ferdinand Karl Piëch and the original Veyron but also redefines what a one‑off hypercar can be.
