Bugatti W16 Mistral unveiled as farewell for iconic engine
Meet the last new road-legal Bugatti model with the company's legendary W16 engine, the $AU7.3 million Mistral – capable of 420km/h with no roof.
French hypercar maker Bugatti has revealed its last road-going car with its iconic W16 engine, the 2024 Bugatti W16 Mistral – priced from a cool €5 million ($AU7.3 million) each, before taxes.
Bugatti's 8.0-litre quad-turbocharged W16 engine – comprised of two 'narrow-angle' V8 engines (known as VR8s), arranged at a 90-degree angle – debuted in the Veyron in 2005, and has come to define the exotic brand's cars.
Its final road-going outing – excluding in track-only cars – is the W16 Mistral, a limited-run (99 cars) roadster based on the Chiron hypercar's chassis, designed to celebrate iconic open-top Bugattis of history, including the Type 57 Roadster Grand Raid of 1934.
