Said to be focusing all its efforts on the development of the new car, those who have been hoping for a SUV or a sedan from the brand will be disappointed.

 

“We strive to do everything with the next Bugatti remarkably better than the previous one. So there is not only one dimension we can push against. We need to push all of the dimensions that describe the car,” he said.

 

“For this reason, it’s going to be a big surprise - but I can tell already because I test-drove several of the cars - the new Bugatti will be the best supersports car on the planet, in all dimensions,” Dürheimer added. Expect the car to be an improvement on both the road and the track.

 

It is also said that numbers for the performance figures will be announced soon.

Which...forgive the epithet...idiot would ever hope for such a thing? Demand from arseholes like this is what has brought Porsche, and now Lambo down from their rarified pantheon of supercar purists.

Wouldn't mind seeing a Maybach/Bentley crushing V16 powered Royale II though.

 

Or a new Atlantic coupe along the lines of an oversized 21st century E31.

 

As far as SUV's are concerned, I am an advocate of road tax/COE cat etc by blardy vehicle height/volume instead of engine cc (which is already addressed by petrol duty).

I would very much agree with you but the rest of the world thinks otherwise judging by the rate of new SUVs being launched by almost every carmaker.

Thanks Faiming. I am aware of the popularity of SUVs (I have an MPV myself). But this is a Bugatti for crying out loud. SUVs and MPVs are utilitarian POSes, let the utilitarian marques stick to building them.

  • Is 'tiny living' really irrelevant in Singapore?

    I discussed the possibility of living in tiny houses in Singapore in an earlier blog post. But as we know, it isn't an option to begin with – no thanks, of course, to our lack of land space.  Someone also pointed out that the idea of tiny houses is "romanticised" – which, I don't deny (but hey, that's why it's a dream). While it's clear tiny houses aren't going to work out here, the concept of 'tiny living' is; not just physically but also mentally. Anyone who has lived enough years lo
