Bugatti teases the Bugatti Bordeaux super sedan

Bugatti Bordeaux

Bugatti has teased its upcoming supercar on an invitation card for an exclusive preview event of the new product. From the scanned copy of the card, you can notice two horseshoe-like taillights, along with another vertical taillight that may split the rear windscreen in two.

You can also notice quad-exhaust tailpipes on each side of the car, indicating that it would have lots of power under the hood. However, it is being strongly suggested that the Bordeaux will feature a Veyron-sourced 1001HP 8.0 litre W16 powerhouse, that is also capable of spitting out 1250Nm of torque.

A concept version of the vehicle is expected to be previewed at the upcoming motor show in Frankfurt, that is happening in September. For those who are wondering about the origins of the name and is actually a city in France famous for the wine that comes from that region, Bordeaux wine. A rather suitable name for something upmarket, but please, no jokes about how the name is pronounced! :P

    well, looks like bugatti has jumped on the station wagon in making 4 door supercars…

    Only *fill in the blank* people joke about the name.

    BTW, those 2 quads pipes are overkill!

    Can't wait to see the whole car. :)

    I read somewhere before that it's Bugatti's policy not to sell their cars in (to?) a country where they don't have a service centre… do we have a Bugatti service centre here in Malaysia? I have no idea.

    err pronounced as 'Bugatti Bodo'?

    :P LoL.

    Sorry Paul, can't stop thinking about it. This is a conversation that happened shall VW decides to sell it here.

    Salesman: Tuan macam berminat dengan kereta ini?

    Rich Man: Ya. Cantik. Apa nama dia?

    Salesman: Bugatti Bodo

    Rich Man: Apa?? Repeat that again?

    Salesman: Bugatti…. Bo-Do…. (speak word by word slowly)

    Rich Man: %#$%!!

    BTW

    There's too many exhaust pipes that makes it look over-pimped. The middle LED light makes the rear looks like a submarine.

    Our road will toast the car like never b4 . And Malaysia dont even have the road for this type of monstrous gas-drinking car .

    If we provide two wing for this car , it would probably just flew away .

    Hopefully, the W16 that is tauted to power this car will a non-turbocharged, NA unit, or at least a detuned version.

    It can avoid another engine-cooling nightmares that has troubled the Bugatti engineers when developing Veyron. 1001 bhp is just too much for a luxury saloon.

    The 8 exhaust pipes is a nice touch though.

  • it should be using the same engine and gearbox as veyron.(same model of gearbox as veyron is still in production). Just the power output might be slightly different……still turbocharged
