Bugatti revealed the Tourbillon at Molsheim on 20 June 2024 as the successor to the Chiron. Combined output is 1,800 PS (1,775 hp) from an 8.3-litre naturally aspirated V16 and three electric motors. Production is 250 cars, the net price is €3.8 million before taxes, and first deliveries are scheduled for 2026.

Bugatti Tourbillon Price

Bugatti's published net price is €3.8 million before taxes and specification — independent coverage converts that to roughly $4.1 million. That is the allocation floor. Coachwork, interior and Molsheim commissions push individual cars higher, as they did on every modern Bugatti. All 250 cars are allocated. The one-off Destrier is a separate Solitaire commission, not a 251st Tourbillon. Full technical data is in the specification table.

On paper the Tourbillon lands next to the Ferrari F80 ($3.735 million US start) and well above the McLaren W1. It is also the rarest of the three at 250 units.

The End of the W16 — Cosworth Naturally Aspirated V16

The Chiron family closed the quad-turbo W16 era; the Chiron Super Sport 300+ was the 304 mph full stop. The Tourbillon does not turbocharge a W16. It uses an 8.3-litre naturally aspirated V16 developed with Cosworth, rated at 1,000 PS and revving to 9,000 rpm. Three electric motors add 800 PS. Combined output is 1,800 PS, which is 1,775 hp in imperial units. Analog instruments and a Swiss-watchmaking approach to the dashboard are part of the brief: Bugatti is selling a mechanical centrepiece, not a screen.

Eight-Speed DCT, All-Wheel Drive, 60-Plus km of EV

Drive is all-wheel drive through an eight-speed dual-clutch. Bugatti quotes 0–100 km/h in 2.0 seconds. The standard limiter is 380 km/h; with the Speed Key the company quotes 445 km/h. DIN weight is under 1,995 kg. Electric range is quoted at more than 60 km — a usable figure, unlike the W1's two-mile pack. The Tourbillon can leave the factory on electric power before the V16 fires.

Production — 250 Cars, Molsheim, Deliveries 2026

Every Tourbillon is built at Molsheim. Bugatti has not announced extra cars. First customer deliveries are scheduled for 2026. Anyone without an allocation is looking at the resale market, or at the rest of the 2026 halo calendar on the upcoming timeline.

Bugatti Tourbillon — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Bugatti Tourbillon?

The Tourbillon is Bugatti's successor to the Chiron era. It replaces the W16 with an 8.3-litre naturally aspirated V16 designed with Cosworth, plus three electric motors, for a combined 1,800 PS (1,775 hp). Production is 250 cars, built in Molsheim.

How many Bugatti Tourbillon cars will be built?

Bugatti will build 250 Tourbillons. The company has said the run is allocated. The one-off Destrier sits outside this count as a separate Solitaire commission.

How much does the Bugatti Tourbillon cost?

Bugatti's published net price is €3.8 million before taxes and options, which independent coverage converts to roughly $4.1 million. As with every modern Bugatti, coachwork and interior commissions push individual cars well above that floor.

What engine does the Tourbillon have?

An 8.3-litre naturally aspirated V16, developed with Cosworth, rated at 1,000 PS and revving to 9,000 rpm. Three electric motors add 800 PS. Combined output is 1,800 PS (1,775 hp). It is not a W16 and it is not turbocharged.

How fast is the Bugatti Tourbillon?

Bugatti quotes 0–100 km/h in 2.0 seconds. Standard top speed is limited to 380 km/h. With the Speed Key the company quotes 445 km/h.

Does the Tourbillon have electric-only range?

Yes. Bugatti quotes more than 60 km of electric running from the hybrid system — a usable figure, unlike the McLaren W1's two-mile pack. The Tourbillon can leave Molsheim on electric power before the V16 fires.

When do Tourbillon deliveries start?

Bugatti scheduled first customer deliveries for 2026. The car was revealed at Molsheim on 20 June 2024. By September 2026 the 250-car allocation remains the production cap.

How does the Tourbillon compare with the Chiron Super Sport 300+?

The Chiron Super Sport 300+ was the 304 mph W16 full stop. The Tourbillon trades that quad-turbo W16 for a naturally aspirated V16 hybrid, cuts DIN weight below 1,995 kg, and is rarer at 250 cars versus the wider Chiron family. It is the new halo, not a 300+ remake.
