The meticulous final Bugatti Bolide shakedown
Before being united with their owners, these mechanical masterpieces face one last challenge: an intensive final inspection and circuit testing program that ensures absolute perfection.
London, March 22, 2025, (Oilandgaspress) –– Every Bugatti that leaves Molsheim undergoes an uncompromising quality control process and, despite its raw and focused nature, the track-only Bolide¹ is no exception.
The Bugatti Bolide represents the most extreme expression of Bugatti DNA, imbued with race-winning heritage and a pure celebration of the iconic W16 engine. With 1,600 horsepower propelling a lightweight carbon fiber chassis, complete with a number of top-tier motorsport innovations, it is an incomparable track machine. Yet each one still undergoes a meticulous shakedown process that ensures the very same quality and dedication to perfection as every other Bugatti model.
At the heart of Bugatti’s quality control process lies a bespoke shakedown and a close collaboration with Circuit de Mirecourt, whose 3,750-meter track nestled within the Vosges department has become instrumental in validating the performance of every Bolide. This partnership provides Bugatti with exclusive track access regularly, creating an ideal environment with comprehensive, professional new facilities, close to Bugatti’s spiritual Molsheim home, enabling the brand’s expert team to conduct meticulous performance testing.
The shakedown process mobilizes a dedicated team of eight specialists for each session: two quality control drivers, a tire manager, a cooling manager, two mechanics, and two electricians. Working in orchestrated harmony, this expert team can validate two cars in a single day on track, assessing every single dynamic characteristic.
