The end of an automobile era: this is the last Bugatti with the legendary W16 engine

After 20 years, Bugatti has officially said goodbye to one of the most famous engines in automotive history. The last example of the W16 Mistral model was produced in Molsheim, marking the end of series production for the final road-going Bugatti powered by the legendary 8.0-liter quad-turbo W16 engine. This concludes a chapter marked by models such as the Veyron, Chiron, and ultimately the open-top W16 Mistral, which carried the slogan 'The last of its kind.' The final unit was specially crafted as a tribute to the entire era of the W16 engine, featuring unique design elements and references to the brand’s founder, Ettore Bugatti. The car also set a new world speed record for open-top cars, reaching 453.91 km/h. While production of the W16-powered models has ended, Bugatti continues to offer exclusive customization through its Programme Solitaire.
