The ultra-luxury and ultra-performance brand Bugatti has officially released the photos of one of the most anticipated cars, the Bugatti 16C Galibier concept. Even compelling news is that Bugatti is likely to display the model at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The Bugatti 16C Galibier concept is designed as the most elegant, exclusive and powerful 4-door automobile in the world.
Power in the Galibier comes from the same 8.0-litre W-16 engine with two-stage supercharging as in the Veyron. It can churn out about 1001hp (747kW) and 1250Nm of torque and uses the AWD system for channelizing the power to the wheels. The Galibier gets a new eight-speed automatic gearbox instead of a twin-clutch in the Veyron. A set of powerful carbon ceramic brakes is also available.
The basic architecture of the modern four door sedan has a torpedo-like character. It boasts splendid features like the typical Bugatti radiator grille, the clamshell running the length of the vehicle and large round LED headlights. The polished aluminum door & wings and carbon-fiber bodywork mark its high-tech elements. It helps in achieving outstanding performance of engine and improved efficiency. There is no compromise in safety and to support that it also features an advanced active suspension system and all the top electronic driving aids.
On the inside, the car is exactly as you might expect from a Bugatti, extremely sumptuous with shiny wood parts complementing the stylish interior. Speed and power dials are centrally located on the dashboard in a comfortable position for the driver. A Reverso Tourbillon clock designed by the famous, Swiss maker Parmigiani serves like the car’s interior clock and can be detached and worn on the wrist.
The Galibier with its splendid “Art, Form and Technique” will cost about US$ 1.4 million or £900,000. Given the details which make the Bugatti 16C Galibier an ultra-luxury automobile, the price-tag is to be expected.
