Bugatti Veyron Tribute by "Solitaire"

[Jonathan19]

Bugatti is preparing a new "Solitaire" one-off as a tribute to the Veyron, the car that defined the modern era of the brand.

Rumors :

- The car is scheduled to be officially revealed on January 22, 2026.
- Will feature the legendary 8.0L W16 quad-turbo engine, specifically the 1,600 hp iteration.
- The car is rumored to be Red and Black two-tone paint scheme, like the classic Bugatti configuration that famously debuted on the original Veyron 16.4.

I would like to thank the multiple sources that provided me with these details and authorised me to share them with this forum.

I wonder whether an existing customer used their existing car as a donor.

Hah! They seemingly found a spare engine and chassis!

Seriously, what will be the last W16 powered Bugatti? It’s almost turning into another Zonda situation.

Veyron > Chiron > Tourbillon

The Solitaire programme has many plans in the pipeline, and I think that as long as the Tourbillon is not in full production, we can expect other W16 One-Offs from this programme. Another Solitaire is expected in 2026 in addition to this one.

We'll wait until the first one is unveiled before saying anything about the second one. ^^

Agree, while I was never a fan of the Veyron while it was in production, and liked the Chiron more, today I see it as one of the best looking, most epic hypercars in car history, up there with the Zonda, true classics.

I hope Bugatti sort out the wheel and tire situation, otherwise many of these cars will never get used as intended.

Its just a rip off, I'm sure the fastest car in the world BYD doesn't use 30k tires.

That thing is a death trap.
The car looked highly unstable and all around dangerous even at 300 km/h

Yeah, pretty much the same here. Although I've always been a fan of the Veyron, it's aging like the best. Has to be a facelift though because I don't like the OG headlights

It’s almost turning into another Zonda situation.

The unwritten rule of serving the 0.001% is to soid saying no.

Many of the crazy hardware in pagani and Koenigsegg are driven by customers drunk calling Horachio and Christian in the evening with wild demands without asking for a quote.

This might not be the last ever Zonda. Alternatively they could convert an existing car into a new variant ther does not bare the Zonds name.
