Bugatti Chiron's Special Edition Honors Company's Legacy

author: FutureCar Staff    

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

The car is adorned with a hand-drawn mural featuring 45 historic Bugatti models, a laborious process that took over 400 hours to complete - a feat that Bugatti itself described as "extremely intimidating". The ink used in the artwork was specifically developed for durability, ensuring that it will last as long as the car itself.

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

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

Achim Anscheidt, who recently retired from his position as Bugatti's chief designer, expressed his admiration for the creativity of their customers, stating, "We take great pride in helping them bring their dreams to life. However, extensive special commissions like this are extremely rare, with only one or two creations of this magnitude typically seen each year."
