Bugatti launches a new and mysterious teaser: what is the French brand up to?

Bugatti already showed its capability with the Bugatti Veyron, a model that featured several variants, each more radical than the last. However, the French brand wanted to raise the bar with the Bugatti Chiron, a vehicle that has already demonstrated its readiness to serve as the basis for very special versions or one-offs. And now it seems that Bugatti is going to pull off another stunt with a new hypercar that has mysteriously hinted at itself with this teaser, without revealing absolutely anything.

Of course, mystery surrounds every preview of a vehicle, even more so when we are talking about a Bugatti. For the moment, the French brand has not let anything slip about it, just a headline message reading “What if…?”, whose literal translation would be “what would happen if…?”, something that leaves many doubts hanging in the air.

In addition to this not very revealing message, we also find rear lights that faintly glow in the gloom. These take the shape of an X, resembling a spaceship more than a car, which leads us to our first assumption about the true identity of this mysterious Bugatti. Everything points to it possibly being a production variant of the Bugatti Vision Le Mans Concept.

This prototype previewed a future racing vehicle from the French brand, which intends to set it apart from the Chiron and all of its versions. However, everything suggests that the production model of this concept would continue to use the W16 engine that powers every single offspring of Bugatti, only tuned in such a way that it would become the most powerful model in the brand’s history.

And the fact that it is a vehicle designed solely and exclusively for the track allows Bugatti a great deal of freedom to play with it. This is reflected in considerable width, determined by the distance between the rear lights, and extreme aerodynamics that will have nothing to do with anything we have seen to date.

Be that as it may, Bugatti is preparing to once again make a statement with this creation, which could make its appearance before the end of October. With this premise, the French brand takes aim at all those that have track vehicles in an attempt to checkmate them.
