Bugatti Chiron's Unique Tribute to Legacy

author: FutureCar Staff    

The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Golden Era has been unveiled as a unique and meticulously adorned tribute to the rich heritage of the French luxury brand. This special edition was designed to cater to the desires of a highly significant customer and 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.

One of the standout features of this special edition is the hand-drawn mural that adorns the car, showcasing 45 historic Bugatti models. The creation of this intricate artwork took over 400 hours, a process that Bugatti itself described 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 world's most luxurious car upon its launch in 1926. Additionally, the door features the Type 57 SC Atlantic, a personal favorite of Achim Anscheidt, Bugatti's former design director who oversaw the creation of this special edition. On the driver's side, the 'modern' era of Bugatti is depicted, with sketches of the EB110, Veyron, and the Chiron itself.

To further celebrate the 16-cylinder engine that has been a hallmark of Bugatti for the past two decades, the 3712 components that make up the engine are also sketched onto the doors. The entire car is adorned in a striking two-tone color scheme, with the combination of Doré gold and Nocturne black.

Achim Anscheidt, who recently retired from his position as Bugatti's chief designer, expressed his pride in assisting customers in bringing their creative visions to life. He also noted that extensive special commissions like this are incredibly rare, with only one or two creations of this magnitude typically seen each year.
