Bugatti Launches Tourbillon: Specifications of the New V16 Hybrid Hypercar

Bugatti has released the Tourbillon, a hypercar that integrates a naturally aspirated 8.3-litre V16 engine with three electric motors to produce a combined output of 1343 kW.

The vehicle is set at a starting price of $5.7 million and will have a limited production of 250 units.

The V16 engine contributes 746 kW and 900 Nm of torque, with a peak RPM of 9000. The electric motors, located on the front and rear axles, provide an additional 597 kW.

This powertrain enables the Tourbillon to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 2.0 seconds, and achieve speeds of 200 km/h in less than five seconds, 300 km/h in under 10 seconds, and 400 km/h in less than 25 seconds with the Speed Key.

The vehicle incorporates a T800 carbon composite monocoque structure which reduces its weight compared to its predecessor, the Chiron.

It features a 24.8 kWh battery capable of over 60 km range on electric power alone.

The all-wheel-drive system is controlled via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

Bugatti has designed the Tourbillon with a lightweight suspension system using forged aluminium multi-link components, carbon-ceramic brakes, and specifically designed Michelin Pilot Cup Sport 2 tires for improved handling and performance.

The interior of the Tourbillon is marked by a centrally located infotainment and driving profile screen, surrounded by specialised instruments designed to echo the aesthetics of high-end watches.

The car maintains traditional Bugatti design elements like the horseshoe grille and a two-tone colour scheme.

The Tourbillon is expected to start global deliveries in 2026 after the end of production for the Bolide and W16 Mistral models.

Should Chinese Cars Be Banned in Australia?

Banning Chinese cars in Australia makes no sense. With no local car industry to protect, tariffs would only hurt consumers and limit choice.
