Bugatti Chiron Profilée auctioned for €9,792,500 (£8.7m)
The Chiron Profilée has 1,476 horsepower and can accelerate to 62mph in just 2.3 seconds with a quoted top speed of 236mph. The body of the car is finished in a bespoke Bleu Royal Carbon tint, with the carbon fiber exposed.
The car was at Paris’s famous Carrousel du Louvre, where it was auctioned by RM Sotheby’s – Lot 177/200. Bidding began at 16:00 CET on 1 February . The new owner of the Profilée will not only capture a one-of-a-kind piece of Bugatti history but also the very last new Bugatti with a W16 engine available for sale directly from the Atelier in Molsheim.
The Profilée is absolutely unique. Only one exists, and there will never be another. It features a rich, hand-crafted interior with woven leather as well as bespoke aerodynamic developments – including the only sweeping fixed tail in Bugatti’s modern history – and wheels developed specifically for this model. Befitting the Profilée’s status as an automotive solitaire, Bugatti’s designers created a very specific paint color exclusively for this car: Argent Atlantique. To complement this exquisite finish, a Bleu Royal Carbon tint was applied to the exposed carbon fiber of the car’s lower section as an homage to Bugatti’s distinctive duo-tone pattern. Other details which can only be found on the Profilée include a tailor-made wheel design inspired by the Bugatti famous horseshoe grille.
The 380 km/h machine, powered by Bugatti’s incomparable 8.0-litre quad-turbo W16, possesses the same ferocious acceleration as the Pur Sport, capable of reaching 100 km/h from rest in just 2.3 seconds. Due to the new aerodynamic design, its top speed is 30 km/h higher than the Pur Sport’s.
