Behold, the new 1,775hp Bugatti Tourbillon—an all-new Chiron successor named after a mechanism in silly-money watches that counters the negative effects of gravity. The name’s a nod to Rimac’s new obsession with skeletonized mechanical engineering , and possibly the new Bug’s commitment to picking a fight with physics.
“Then I thought, ‘Okay, let’s take the Chiron and make it hybrid.’ But that’s also bad because it would be super heavy, everything would be compromised. So I came up with a crazy proposal to make a completely new car.”By now, you may well have remarked that the Tourbillon looks a bit like a ripped Chiron with anger issues, and I don’t disagree.
Top speed is limited to 445kph, which should keep you covered day to day, but clearly there’s more to give. Will they go after a new top-speed record? “Let’s see,” said Rimac, which means yes. Andy Wallace, the man who’ll probably pilot it into unchartered territory, pointed out that it gets the “boring bit, up to 250mph ” done so much faster than the Chiron that it’ll give them so much more of the 8.7km Ehra-Lessien straight to play with when pushing beyond 480kph.
A strip of dials on the machined crystal glass center console, plus the seat adjustment knob on the door, also has exposed internal organs, and there’s a delightfully tactile way of firing up the engine by pulling an organ stop lever that protrudes from the dash. The seats are fixed longitudinally , but they can be raised and the back angle adjusted, then you move the pedal box to suit.
