Bugatti Chiron's Heritage Celebrated with Unique Edition

author: FutureCar Staff    

The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Golden Era has been unveiled as a unique and meticulously adorned tribute to the esteemed history of the French luxury brand. This special edition, designed to fulfill the desires of a highly esteemed customer, pays homage to Bugatti's iconic W16 engine and the historic models that solidified the company's reputation as one of the world's most renowned luxury brands.

The car is adorned with a hand-drawn mural that showcases 45 historic Bugatti models, a laborious process that took over 400 hours to complete. Bugatti itself described the undertaking as "extremely intimidating". The ink used for the mural was specially developed for durability, ensuring that it will last the lifetime of the car.

The passenger door of the Chiron Super Sport Golden Era showcases 26 cars, including the legendary Type 41 Royale, which was hailed as the most luxurious car in the world upon its launch in 1926. Also featured is the Type 57 SC Atlantic, a personal favorite of Bugatti's former design director, Achim Anscheidt, who oversaw this remarkable project. On the driver's side, the 'modern' era of Bugatti is depicted, with sketches of the EB110, Veyron, and the Chiron itself.

In a nod to Bugatti's 16-cylinder engine, which has been a hallmark of the brand for the past two decades, the doors of the car are adorned with sketches of the 3712 components that make up the engine. The entire car is finished in a striking two-tone color scheme, with Doré gold and Nocturne black.

Achim Anscheidt, who recently retired as Bugatti's chief designer, expressed his admiration for the creativity of their customers and the pride they take in bringing their dreams to life. He also noted that extensive special commissions like this one are exceedingly rare, with only one or two creations of this magnitude typically seen each year.
