Bugatti's Programme Solitaire unveils inaugural creation

Bugatti's new Programme Solitaire, an exclusive new offering dedicated to creating bespoke one-of-one vehicles, has unveiled its inaugural creation: The Brouillard, a coupe that pays homage to Ettore Bugatti's beloved horse.

The Brouillard is built upon the pinnacle of Bugatti's W16-powered platform featuring the 1,578bhp iteration of the quad-turbocharged engine. The lower third of the vehicle is rendered in dark tones that visually connect to the car's shadow. The aerodynamic philosophy seamlessly integrates functional elements into the sculpted bodywork. Air intakes feed through radiators optimises cooling efficiency, while the fixed ducktail wing provides aerodynamic balance and enhances the car's elegant silhouette.

The Brouillard's gear shifter is machined from a single block of aluminium and features a glass insert containing a miniature hand-crafted sculpture of Ettore's favoured horse and the car's namesake

Inside the Brouillard, custom-woven fabrics sourced from Paris incorporate tartan patterns, while green-tinted carbon fibre is paired with an increased number of machined aluminium components. Embroidered horse motifs feature in the door panels and seat back rests, while the seats themselves are customised and shaped to the owner’s preference and finished with a unique leather patch layout.

The Bugatti Brouillard will be officially unveiled during the 2025 Monterey Car Week as the first project of the new Programme Solitaire. Each year, Solitaire will create a maximum of only two masterpieces, ensuring that each receives the complete attention and craftsmanship that it demands.
