Bugatti has piqued significant interest with a teaser of a new hypercar, which is going to be revealed on August 7, 2025. But unlike a limited-edition supercar, this is a much more exclusive proposition. This model is a true one-off vehicle, produced under Bugatti's newly announced coachbuilding division, and it may even indicate the start of an entirely new chapter for the brand.
From the first strange images to the teaser video absent of any sound, there are growing clues that suggest that Bugatti is building a high-performance piece of high art—just for one owner. Here's everything you need to know about this exciting new project.
Bugatti Builds Custom Cars from Scratch with New Division
In a new initiative, and for the first time in modern history, Bugatti is getting into true coachbuilding—building unique cars from the ground-up based on one client’s vision. The creation of hyper-exclusive vehicles is not something new for Bugatti, but it typically involves producing limited numbers of a car based on special features and/or exterior schemes—this isn't about those types of trim and options. Bugatti can and will design and engineer an entirely unique car from start to finish.
Think of it as haute couture for cars. The first instance of that would be this simply stunning green-painted specimen possibly dubbed "Solitaire." And with this step and thinking, Bugatti is attempting to do nothing less than redefine luxury and exclusivity by bringing back the notion that peaked in the 1930s with the Type 57SC Atlantic. Bugatti is taking this spirit again for 21st century performance and technology.
A Powerful Green Design That Looks Classic Yet Modern
From the few images we've seen, what we'll call a coupe profile is sleek with a huge front grille, a sharply contoured hood, and a beautiful rear glass sweep. And it's painted in a deep green shade, which is unusual. Classic hypercars are usually red, silver, or some other loud color - this is a calm, sophisticated and unique tone of green.
The horseshoe grille which is part of every Bugatti remains, only it has been given some attitude thanks to aggressive bodywork and aerodynamics. The stance looks purposeful, fast and sculpted like modern art. The surfaces and proportions lead the viewer to believe that a GT-style coupe with mind-bending performance awaits under the hood.
Is This Bugatti’s First Custom Hypercar with a V16 Engine?
While specifications are not official yet, sources inside the industry speculate that this one-off is a variation of the newly released Bugatti Tourbillon platform. That means a naturally aspirated V16 power plant, along with three electric motors, and performance numbers around 1,775 delivered horsepower.
If this is the case, it would make this new creation one of the most powerful custom-built vehicles to ever be produced. And while the car has a lot more hybrid tech, it appears to take as much a design cue from timeless elegance and beauty as it does from pure speed. In that way, this car is likely more about presence, beauty, and detail than it is about lap times.
Truly One of a Kind – Only One Will Ever Exist
This green Bugatti is not just rare, it's one of one. That's about as exclusive as it gets in the automotive realm. Reports suggest it has been commissioned by Michel Perridon, a Dutch businessman that is the owner of one of the most impressive Bugatti collections on the planet to date.
His garage already has classics, Chirons, and EB110s, so it only seems right to add the next level of that collection, in a hand-formed, coachbuilt masterpiece. This, for everyone else, is a chance to see a piece of automotive art, even if it will only ever exist in one private collection.
Bringing Emotion and Art Back to Car Design
Maybe it's not about speed, performance or luxury anymore. This new Bugatti seems to be all about emotion. The teaser video shows no engine sounds, no fast cuts, just leisurely, slow-moving shots, with one main phrase: "Crafted for eternity."
This is the essence Bugatti seems to be playing off of with the new coachbuilt mentality. This is about making emotional things, rolling sculptures, things that sit in your memory for years, that doesn't just amaze you with numbers.... Perhaps this is the future for brands like Bugatti, especially now with a rise in electric vehicles and the inevitability of homogenous vehicles being introduced into the marketplace.
