Bugatti: Profilée - the last car with W16 engine 🎥

Since all production slots for the Bugatti Chiron are already spoken for, the auction of the special Profilée model on February 1, 2023 in Paris is the last opportunity to still acquire a creation from the atelier in Molsheim powered by the W16 engine.

Variants between Basic and Pure Sport

The Chiron Pur Sport, the highest development stage of the Chiron series to date, was presented in 2020. Characteristic features of this model are the 183-centimeter-wide, permanently mounted rear wing, the shorter gear ratios, the lightweight magnesium wheels and other innovations.

Some customers had asked whether a Chiron model could not be developed that combined the elegance of the first Chiron with the sporty character of the Pur Sport. That was the birth of the Profilée.

Exclusive single type approval for Europe

The Chiron Profilée meets all the high quality standards that Bugatti applies to each of its vehicles. It has received individual type approval for Europe. The special design with the short rear wing fulfills two essential functions: First, the rear wing provides stability at speeds of up to 380 km/h by increasing downforce, and second, it uses negative pressure to suck hot air out of the engine compartment. The front of this unique hypercar received wider air intakes and an enlarged horseshoe-shaped grille to allow more air to pass through the radiator. A revised front splitter and aerodynamic underbody further maximize downforce and airflow.

Hits 100 km/h in 2.3 seconds

The Profilée is powered by the 1500 hp version of the W16 engine, and the gear ratios are 15 percent shorter than on the Chiron Sport. As a result, the Profilée accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.3 seconds and from 0 to 200 km/h in 5.5 seconds.

Handcrafted in the Molsheim atelier, the cockpit is familiar to Chiron owners. The design follows a minimalist philosophy, where each part has been reduced to its simplest and most beautiful form.
