W16 Mistral

The Mistral represents the conclusion of an era that began with the Veyron in 2005, marking the final application of the quad-turbocharged W16 engine in a street-legal car. This powertrain redefined the limits of automotive engineering, and the Mistral provides a sensory-focused farewell by allowing occupants to hear the intake and turbocharger acoustics directly via induction scoops located just behind the cabin. Its name, derived from a powerful wind in southern France, symbolizes the force and speed of the brand's final internal combustion masterpiece. As Bugatti moves into a hybridized future under the Bugatti Rimac partnership, the Mistral stands as a historical pillar of pure internal combustion dominance. It is a highly sought-after collector's item, with all 99 units sold out prior to its public reveal, ensuring its place in the pantheon of the world's most significant hypercars.
