Sneak Peek Up Date: 2011 Bugatti Bordeaux


In September Bugatti will be old enough to get a letter from the Queen and to celebrate they’re thought to be planning something big for the Frankfurt Motor Show.

This latest teaser shot gives a clearer look at what is thought to be a four-seater supercar named the Bordeaux that Bugatti are planning to officially unveil in Frankfurt.

The first thing to notice about the teaser is the Bordeaux’s eight exhaust pipes that suggests it will borrow the Veyron’s W16 engine. DB9-esque horseshoe rear lights and a vertical brake light complete the dramatic look.

The 8.0-litre quad-turbo W16, which puts out 1,001hp and 1025Nm of torque is likely to make the Bordeaux the fastest four-seater in the world. As a heavier car than the Veyron, 0-60mph is likely to be dealt with in 3.0 seconds and on to around 250mph.

The new shooting brake style body should offer improved practicality over the Veyron with more boot space and room in the back seats. Fine leather, suede and metal trim is expected to finish the interior. For more details click here.
