- A one-of-a-kind Bugatti to redefine luxury and engineering.
- Inspired by the iconic “elephant” sculpture, with a design steeped in heritage.
- Sold to a lucky -owned for a $ 5 million (~ $ 8.5 million AUD) price tag.
When it comes to Bugatti, words like luxury and performance are just the starting point. The brand is always operated on another level with engineering and being exclusively prioritized, but every now and then, even Bugatti destroys its own mold and this time it is made with the Chiron Super Sport “L'Eléphant Blanc”, a 1-of-1 machine standing even besides other bugattis.
Elephant Blanc was delivered to its first owner in Canada and was later listed for a price tag of $ 5 million USD (~ $ 8.5 million AUDs), which became one of the most sought after cars in the world. It was built under the Sur Mesure program of Bugatti (actually the brand's Haute Couture Division), and there is no doubt that it is truly in a league of its own, thanks to its integration of unparalleled performance and detailed art.
A masterpiece of inspiration and design
This car is not just made to impress – it tells a story. It inspired it from Rembrandt Bugatti – the brother of Ettore Bugatti – that the famous elephant sculpture decorated the hood of the legendary Type 41 Royale. The same energy is that -reimagied here, carrying a cut of vintage craftsmanship in the 21st century.
From the outside, the car was coated with glacier white, accepted by the French racing blue who felt straight from a vintage le mans poster. Is it gentle? Yes. But boring? Not close.
Inside the art continues in the cabin covered in the same blue race, delicately with a white elephant embroidered with headrests and door panels. The “Super Sport” door sills have also been replaced for “L'éléphant Blanc”, and remove any doubt in its status, a shiny plaque in this dash spelling: “1-of-1 Elephant Blanc.”
Incompatible performance and engineering
Of course, there is no bugatti complete without exceptional specs. Under the hood sitting the legendary 8.0-liter W16 engine equipped with four turbochargers, which pushed a crazy 1,600 horsepower. It means 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.4 seconds, and a top speed of 440 km/h-electronically limited, maybe to maintain the continuity of time.
But speed just doesn't make a special bugatti – this is how hard -to -distortly it delivers that speed. Elephant Blanc's stretched bodywork, active spoiler, and that -optimize aerodynamics will keep it stable at speeds that will surprise most cars. Even the air vents behind the front wheels are unique to this car, serving both an aesthetic and aerodynamic purpose. If the cruising or torn on the road, the experience of driving in it is nothing short of entertaining.
Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Elephant Blanc is not just a hypercar; It is a piece of conversation, a collector's flex, and a festival of texture. By being exclusive, stunning design, and unmatched power, it is no wonder it will come at an incredibly price of $ 5 million USD. This is the kind of car that will be remembered and respected in the coming decades.
