Front and rear bumpers are powerfully muscular yet sleek, balancing elegance and athleticism. Its stacked "X-type" taillights are a subtle but striking departure from the Mistral, giving the rear a distinctive, modern signature. The fixed ducktail spoiler isn't just style - it channels air.
Just Two Per Year
To preserve its ultra-exclusive nature, Bugatti will build only two vehicles per year through Programme Solitaire. The Brouillard is the very first commission.
Sculpted Bumpers & Tail Lights
Built on the Mistral/Chiron W16 platform, the Brouillard carries forward the iconic 8.0L quad-turbo W16, delivering 1,578-1,600 PS. A fitting farewell to one of automotive history's most intense engines.

Commissioned by a Collector of Legends
This isn't just a wild idea shelved by Bugatti it was a deeply personal commission by Dutch entrepreneur Michel Perridon, founder of The Perridon Collection and a renowned connoisseur of Bugatti's past and present. Perridon's vision, rooted in reverence for the marque's heritage, shaped every choice from the bespoke body panels to the embroidered equestrian motifs and the tiny glass sculpture of Ettore's white stallion embedded in the gear selector. This car is more museum piece than commodity an artwork on wheels tailored to one individual.
Inspired by Ettore Bugatti's Horse
Brouillard isn't just named after Ettore's favorite white stallion - it's a tribute in every detail. The tartan seats and door panels are custom-woven in Paris and embroidered with horse motifs. Inside the gear shifter? A glass-encased miniature sculpture of the legendary horse himself. Green-tinted carbon fiber, horsehair trim, and bespoke upholstery make the cabin an emotional time capsule as much as a cockpit.
An Interior Beyond Compare
Step inside the Brouillard, and you're enveloped in artistry from custom Parisian tartan to green-tinted carbon fiber and machined aluminum. Horsehair insets, embroidered equestrian symbols, a full glass roof, and a frameless gear shifter with a miniature horse sculpture.

A Name That Means 'Fog'
"Brouillard" means fog in French, and while that might sound poetic, there's nothing blurry about Bugatti's intentions here. The name hints at mystery, elegance, and an otherworldly presence, much like the morning mist before it's pierced by sunlight - or in this case, a 16-cylinder roar.
Final Thoughts:
The Bugatti Brouillard is less of a car and more of a perfectly tailored suit - every panel sculpted, every line intentional, every detail bespoke to its commissioner. From its X-shaped taillights to the hand-shaped bumper curves, it's a machine that wears its craftsmanship proudly.
And with production numbers so low they could be counted on one hand, the Brouillard isn't something you buy... it's something you're invited into. After all, some people chase horsepower - others collect it, polish it, and keep it in a climate-controlled garage.
