Rumor: Will There be Bugatti Veyron Successor?

Bugatti Veyron Rumor: Will There be Bugatti Veyron Successor?

Who is the man that makes the Bugatti Veyron a success? It is none other than the Wolfgang Durheimer who is currently scouting Bugatti and Bentley. The rumor about the successor or the next generation of the Bugatti Veyron supercar has been going on for quite some times. The reason why the development of the Bugatti Veyron supercar a bit late is because Bentley is planning to release a new SUV in three years from now which it could be the first diesel Bentley SUV with diesel engine. Now, Wolfgang Durheimer turns his attention to Bugatti Veyron supercar.

Mr. Durheimer has pledged to continue the production of the Bugatti Veyron supercar which is world’s fastest car. Here is what Wolfgang Durheimer has to say, “It is vital that Bugatti produces the world’s fastest car.” Notice the phrase “world’s fastest car” which we strongly believe it refers to none other than the Bugatti Veyron supercar.

We still trying to convince ourselves that the Bugatti Galibier is interesting, but we just can’t help it that the Bugatti Veyron supercar has more attractive aura than the Galibier, don’t you think? So, what makes Bugatti keeps making cars like the Bugatti Veyron supercar?
“It’s in human nature. We are always going to want to find out who runs the 100m the fastest. It’s the same with cars,” Durheimer added. Amen to you Mr. Durheimer! By creating the Bugatti Veyron supercar, human push its skill at his limits. But that is not what the engineers at the Bugatti think because for them, there is no such thing as limit. Human’s life is evolving from time to time, so does car. Right now, Bugatti Veyron supercar might be the world’s fastest car, but we believe the next generation of the Bugatti Veyron supercar will be much faster than the current supercar.

Wolfgang Durheimer indicated that the Bugatti Galibier will not be going green for now, “I am in the process of convincing them that this will be the best car in its segment in the world. It will be claiming for outstanding design, the biggest series production engine with 16 cylinders and it will be the fastest limousine in the world.”

Going green or not, we will be waiting to hear the roaring engine from the Bugatti Veyron.

Bugatti Galibier Concept Prediction: Bugatti Galibier/Royale Ready for Sale in 2012

While no official information has been released yet in regards to the name for the Bugatti Galibier sedan concept and performance figures, the President and CEO of Bugatti, Wolfgang Durheimer, keeps giving us some heads-up on the production of the car from time to time.

For example, in a recent interview with our German contributor, Durheimer confirms the Bugatti Galibier sedan concept (rumored to exit production lines under the Royale designation) will arrive on the market from autumn 2012.

The company expects some four digit sales figures from the high-performance Bugatti Galibier sedan concept that is to be almost as fast and as powerful as a Veyron but with four doors, four seats, and plenty of room in the boot.

“The Bugatti Galibier sedan concept has a much higher value that the Veyron – with lot of trunk volume and a four-seat plus one configuration. We are taking into consideration various scenarios, from 500, to even 1,000 or 1,500 units produced,”Durheimer was quoted as saying by the aforementioned source.

Coming to replace the Veyron and boasting a 16-cylinder engine, the Bugatti Galibier sedan concept /Royale will come with a rumored output from 800 to 1,000 horsepower. The company has not placed a price tag on the Bugatti Galibier sedan concept yet, but they are anticipating it will be more then one million euros.

“We will set the price at the end. The amount is expected to be of seven figures. Today, the Veyron range is priced between 1.2 and 2 million euros. In the end, the Bugatti Galibier sedan concept is the absolute benchmark in the four-door sedan segment,” Durheimer stated.

With its 16 cylinders of the Bugatti Galibier sedan concept technology will “define the undisputed leadership in its segment,” he added. “Bugatti will continue to be the laboratory for developing revolutionary engineering approaches,” Durheimer concluded the interview session about the Bugatti Galibier sedan concept.

Audi A8 Platform for Bugatti Sedan

Bugatti Sedan Audi A8 Platform for Bugatti Sedan

Bugatti Sedan is developed by the Volkswagen as the new production plan within the group of the brands included in what could become the number one auto manufacturer by 2018. Well, Volkswagen’s effort in creating the Bugatti Sedan is none other caused by Porsche which has been handed production of all sports cars and Audi responsible for all the SUVs.

Bugatti Sedan will have a major makeover process that will see the brand abandon the high-performance products it is famous for and focus on something else. Rumor has it that the Veyron could soon become history as Bugatti might change its view from 2014 when it will start building the luxurious Bugatti Sedan.

As always, the Bugatti Sedan will be produced only for a limited number of people and will have jaw-dropping prices. But even so, this could be more profitable for Volkswagen Group than the Bugatti brand is in the current state. The Bugatti Sedan first project could take the form of a luxurious sedan that would use the platform of the Audi A8; it seems likely its next generation, to be built at the same time with the Bugatti Galibier.

What interesting about the Bugatti Galibier is that if it indeed goes into the production line-up, it will probably come as a limited series of 300 units, with features more luxurious and definitely expensive than the Bugatti Sedan which based on the Audi A8.

Both Bugatti and Volkswagen Group do not share any confirmation concerning the Bugatti Sedan, so we still have to wait for official statement or press release on the matter to confirm or deny the report. But, we manage to gather some information for you.

Bugatti Sedan more likely to have its official debut on the 2011 Frankfurt International Auto Show on September. A little bird told us that if you could remember the Bugatti concept back in 1990s while it was still produced under the marquee’s Italian ownership, it probably give you a tiny bit idea of the which will be applied on the Bugatti Sedan.

And what about the engine? Since no confirmation on the Volkswagen Group and Bugatti, we predict that the Bugatti Sedan will be powered by the same outrageous W12 engine which shares with Bugatti Veyron. Could it be sport sedan? We do not know yet.

Bugatti Sedan will be revealed on September, and until then, all we can do is waiting to be surprised by the sport sedan to-be.

Bugatti is never loosened their ambitions. Since the company is still held by its founder, Ettore Bugatti until now under the control of the Volkswagen group. The ambition is evident from their fourth super sedan named, Bugatti Galibier.

Bugatti Galibier will not be just a very exclusive and expensive, the British magazine CAR reported that the Veyron W16 engine with dual-clutch gearbox will be mounted in this sedan. The combination will also be available hybrid engine options.

Hybrid engine option is being developed because of an increasing number of metropolitan centers are taking steps to restrict or even prohibit emissions of cars in downtown areas. This causes the majority of the owners of Bugatti choose to use public transportation.

In an interview with the CEO of Bugatti, Wolfgang Durheimer, confirmed the project is still in its early stages, with final dimensions of the car and chassis construction that has not been resolved. The sedan design is expected to be completed this fall. Bugatti Galibier framework will use a carbon monocoque like the Veyron, or maybe an aluminum spaceframe.

Bugatti Galibier will be produced as many as 3,000 units, but about the price still has not been declared. Possible price for this sedan is expected to reach £ 1 million. If it is true that Bugatti Galibier use hybrid engines, of course, this car will be more fun to drive.
