Bugatti has added another masterpiece to its storied lineup: the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage. Built under the exclusive Programme Solitaire, this singular hypercar pays homage to the brand’s first Veyron and to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the visionary who helped bring the W16 engine to life.
Design inspiration and exterior highlights
The Hommage draws its silhouette from the original 2005 Veyron, but it is re‑imagined with modern touches. A massive wind‑tunnel intake dominates the front, while an enlarged, three‑dimensional horse‑shaped grille—machined from a solid block of aluminium—adds a bold, sculptural feel.
Its paintwork is a masterpiece in itself: a deep, lustrous red sits atop a silver‑aluminium primer, creating a mesmerizing depth‑of‑field effect. Exposed black carbon‑fiber elements replace conventional black paint, offering a tactile contrast accentuated by a 10% black pigment infusion in the transparent clear coat.
Chrome‑plated 12‑spoke wheels homage the original Veyron—20 inches up front and 21 inches at the rear—are paired with bespoke Michelin tires to ensure performance matches the car’s visual drama.
Interior – where heritage meets haute couture
Inside, the Hommage abandons leather for an exclusive Paris‑made fabric called Car Couture, first seen on the Bugatti Tourbillon concept. The round, Bauhaus‑style steering wheel mirrors the Veyron’s classic design, while door panels blend Car Couture with premium brown leather.
Every surface is handcrafted: the central console and transmission tunnel are machined from solid aluminium, and a 41 mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon watch is embedded as a functional timepiece. A special knee‑rest bears Pierre Veyron’s signature alongside Ferdinand Karl Piëch’s initials and birthdate, underscoring the car’s tribute nature.
Powertrain – the heart of a legend
Under the hood lies an 8.0‑liter W16 engine, identical to the one found in the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport. It delivers a staggering 1,600 hp and 1,600 Nm of torque, channeled through a seven‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox and Bugatti’s permanent four‑wheel‑drive system.
While exact performance figures such as 0‑60 mph times and top speed remain undisclosed, the power output suggests capabilities on par with the world’s fastest production hypercars.
Exclusivity and legacy
The F.K.P. Hommage is the second creation under Programme Solitaire, which limits production to just two cars per year. Each vehicle is a bespoke project, completely re‑designed from chassis to interior, with personalization options that tell a unique story of Bugatti’s heritage.
The identity of the lucky owner has not been revealed, adding an air of mystery to this collectible piece of automotive art.
Conclusion
With its blend of historical reverence, cutting‑edge craftsmanship, and unsurpassed performance, the Bugatti F.K.P. Hommage stands as a fitting tribute to both the legendary Veyron and the engineer who made it possible. It reinforces Bugatti’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of luxury and exclusivity.
