Bugatti SUV Concept Imagines Tourbillon DNA on Stilts

The Legacy of the Tourbillon Supercar
Although production of the Bugatti Tourbillon—officially unveiled a year ago—has not started yet, the French marque is preparing to begin assembly in Molsheim in 2026. As the spiritual successor to the Chiron, the Tourbillon represents a significant performance leap. It replaces the signature 8.0-liter quad-turbo W16 with a high-revving V16 engine, developed with Cosworth. This powerhouse delivers an astonishing 1,775 bhp (1,800 PS/1,324 kW), enabling a sprint from 0 to 100 kph in just 2.0 seconds. Even more impressive, it completes the 0–400 kph run in under 25 seconds and is electronically limited to a top speed of 445 kph (277 mph).

Speculation Around a Bugatti SUV
With such engineering marvels in its portfolio, Bugatti has sparked rumors about expanding into the SUV segment—potentially taking on rivals like the Ferrari Purosangue, Aston Martin DBX707, and Lamborghini Urus. Despite these whispers, the automaker has shown no official interest in launching a high-riding vehicle.

A Digital Rendering With Tourbillon Influence

In response, digital artist Evren Ozgun created a bold rendering of a Bugatti SUV inspired by the Tourbillon’s design language.

The concept features distinctive front and rear fascias, oversized wheels, flush door handles, and a profile that boldly departs from typical Bugatti elegance. The result is a machine that, while visually intriguing, seems incongruent with the brand’s heritage.

A Question of Identity and Potential Success

Although it’s unlikely that this design will reach production, it highlights how a Bugatti crossover might leverage the Tourbillon’s aesthetics. With a likely seven-figure price tag, such a vehicle could quickly become a strong seller and bolster Bugatti’s financial standing—even if it risks diluting the outrageously exclusive image that enthusiasts cherish.
