A new chapter of rarefied craft has arrived, one that blends audacious design with time-honoured engineering. Built upon the Mistral’s proven bones, this creation keeps only the essential architecture and the monumental W16 with 1,600 horsepower, while everything else has been meticulously reimagined. The result is a fiercely individual machine that radiates purposeful elegance. It is the kind of automobile that turns motion into a private ritual.
A coupe carved from air
Where the Mistral is a roadster, this model claims a full coupe silhouette, a shift that reshaped its entire rear section. From the taut roofline to the sculpted wing, the diffuser to the jewel-like exhausts, every surface has been revisited with fanatical precision. The stance is low, the volumes are muscular, and the transitions are whisper-smooth for ruthless aerodynamics. It feels as if the car were chiseled from a single block of speed-hungry air.
The paintwork debuts an original, deeply saturated green, a hue that is both bold and refined. It pairs with an ultra-luxurious interior whose tones are carefully matched, creating a seamless exterior-to-cabin narrative. Satin metal highlights meet rich leathers, while tactile switchgear underscores a philosophy of analogue purity. Nothing shouts; everything speaks.

The indomitable W16, retuned for the times
At its heart remains the awe-inspiring W16, a cathedral of combustion with 1,600 determined horses. The calibration is exacting, with a focus on response, thermal stability, and orchestral sound that suits the coupe’s altered mission. A stiffer structure invites more finely tuned damping, allowing both serene grand touring and razor-sharp control.
Cooling pathways are optimized, while the exhaust’s note has been sculpted to deliver a measured yet unmistakable presence. The powertrain is not merely brutal; it is exquisitely civilized, translating colossal output into liquid thrust. It’s performance with a conscience, composed and commanding.
Elegance with a lineage
Its name draws from Ettore Bugatti’s personal world, echoing the moniker of his favorite horse. That historical thread gives the car a quiet, almost private romance. In a brand defined by heritage, such details matter, transforming an object of speed into a story you can drive. The past does not weigh it down; it raises it up.
“This is less a car than a canvas, where engineering becomes emotion and speed becomes silence.”
Solitaire: personalization at the outer edge
This debut also inaugurates the brand’s new Solitaire program, a pinnacle of curated personalization. Access is deliberately limited to a close-knit circle of existing clients, the only ones eligible to commission such deeply bespoke creations. Within these walls, almost anything is possible: unique configurations, bespoke bodywork, previously unseen finishes, and obsessively specified materials.
The philosophy is unabashedly exclusive, and the economics are equally uncompromising. While pricing remains discreet, industry whispers suggest figures near €10 million per commission. In this domain, rarity is not a side effect; it is the central promise.
Crafted details that matter

- Design language that reconciles analog feel with modern precision
The meaning of ultra-exclusivity
To call this car rare is to understate its intent. It exists for those who view mobility as a form of art, where engineering is the brush and the road is the canvas. The cabin is a sanctuary of hushed texture, the exterior a sculpture of pressure waves. You don’t simply drive it; you curate its moments.
In an era of endless noise, this creation speaks in quiet, devastating clarity. It celebrates the joy of focus, of craftsmanship at a scale where hands still matter and decisions are made one deliberate detail at a time. For a fortunate few, it will be the rarest definition of speed: intimate, precise, and unforgettable.
