Bugatti Tourbillon’s Four Secret Specs Leaked
In a world where secrecy is everything, Bugatti’s highly anticipated Tourbillon has been unexpectedly revealed. thanks to a leaked online configurator. Four different versions of this automotive masterpiece have emerged, each more extravagant than the last. Here’s a first look at the “Signature,” “Sportive,” “Classique” and “Extraordinaire” Models. All courtesy of the internet’s favourite pastime: accidental leaks.
The “Signature” Spec: Where It All Began
The first leaked images gave us a glimpse of the Signature version. True to its name, it appears to be Bugatti’s opening statement for the Tourbillon lineup. Expect:
- Dramatic Two-Tone Bodywork
Likely a combination of exposed carbon fiber and a bold accent color, because nothing says “Bugatti” like flaunting the most expensive materials on Earth.
- Distinctive Wheel Design
The Signature’s rims hint at motorsport inspiration, complete with color-coordinated highlights that match interior details.
- Luxurious Cabin Appointments
Early peeks at the interior suggest quilted leather, carbon fiber trim, and high-gloss finishes—basically, a private jet cockpit for the road.
The “Sportive” Spec:
Next came images of the Sportive configuration. Despite the name suggesting a track-focused approach, this is still a Bugatti—so “track-focused” is relative:
- Aggressive Exterior Cues
The lower sections are swathed in exposed carbon fiber, while the upper body sports a stealthy matte finish. It’s an unapologetically bold design meant to outshine even the wildest hypercars.
- Blue Accented Wheels
The bright blue detailing on the wheels is unmistakable. Not only does it match the interior embroidery, but it also ensures that onlookers know you’re driving something far beyond a “normal” supercar.
- Alcantara-Rich Interior
Inside, you’ll find an ocean of black Alcantara, punctuated by electric-blue stitching. Piano black trim on the center console adds a sophisticated contrast, making you feel like you’re in a haute couture race car.
The “Classique” Spec:
The latest leak features the Classique, Bugatti’s idea of “understated”—though it’s still far from ordinary:
- Two-Tone Beige and Carbon Exterior
Metallic beige meets exposed carbon in a blend that’s equal parts elegance and extravagance. It’s a softer look compared to the Sportive, but still screams ultra-premium.
- Y-Spoke Alloy Wheels
These wheels may seem less flashy at first glance, but the craftsmanship is pure Bugatti. Each spoke is meticulously polished, likely by artisans in Molsheim with an eye for perfection.
- Plush, Two-Tone Cabin
Beige and dark grey upholstery, diamond-pattern stitching on seats and door panels, and carbon fiber around the air vents—this is Bugatti’s version of “classy.” Even the knee pads on the center console get the luxury treatment.
The “Extraordinaire” Spec: Because ‘Over-the-Top’ Isn’t Enough
If Bugatti’s other Tourbillon configurations push boundaries, the Extraordinaire spec obliterates them. Think of it as the ultimate statement piece where even the smallest detail is designed to dazzle.
- Iridescent Carbon-Fiber Bodywork
Finished in a deep metallic tint that shimmers under different lighting, the Extraordinaire’s carbon-fiber skin is more like fine jewelry than car paint. It’s a head-turner from every angle.
- Two-Tone Luxe Interior
Inside, sumptuous white leather meets navy-blue accents, all quilted and embroidered to perfection. The headrests bear the Tourbillon script, a subtle reminder that you’re sitting in Bugatti’s pinnacle of opulence.
- Polished Metal & Bespoke Accents
From the mirror-finish C-line on the exterior to the gleaming center console trim, every metal surface is polished by hand. The result? A rolling masterpiece that reflects Bugatti’s dedication to artisanal craftsmanship and uncompromised performance.
Heart: 8.3-Liter V16 with Electric Backup
In an era where downsizing is the norm, Bugatti says, “No, thanks.” The Tourbillon’s 8.3-liter V16 is as traditional as it is gargantuan, and it’s helped along by three electric motors. Combined output? A mind-boggling 1,800 horsepower.
Blistering Performance
- 0-62 mph in 2.0 seconds: That’s quicker than you can read this sentence.
- 248 mph in under 25 seconds: By the time you realize how fast you’re going, you’re basically supersonic.
This is not just fast for a hypercar; it’s the kind of performance NASA might take notes on.
The Price Tag and the “Equipe Pur Sang” Package
- Standard Price: Several Millions
If you have to ask how much, it’s probably not in your budget. The Tourbillon is aimed squarely at collectors and enthusiasts for whom “several million dollars” is just a line item in a spreadsheet.
- Equipe Pur Sang” Package: For Those Who Need Even More
Because owning a Bugatti isn’t exclusive enough, the leaked configurator also reveals an optional Equipe Pur Sang package for an additional $240,000. “Equipe Pur Sang” translates from French as “purebred team,” underscoring the package’s focus on unparalleled pedigree and performance. This special option, available for the Tourbillon, promises further carbon fiber accents, bespoke wheels, and a host of hidden details that only the truly devoted—and truly wealthy—will appreciate.
Conclusion:
Why does this matter?
Imagine explaining this car to someone from 1995: “It’s powered by a V16 engine and three electric motors, costs more than a spaceship, and looks like it escaped a Bond villain’s garage.” They’d laugh. Then you’d show them the 0-248 mph time. Then they’d faint.Because in a world of cookie-cutter EVs and eco-design, the Tourbillon is a rogue comet blazing across the automotive sky. It’s unapologetic. Unhinged. Unmatched. It’s Bugatti screaming, “You think you’ve seen luxury? You think you’ve seen speed? Hold my champagne.
