The Last Bugatti Veyron Will Be In Geneva

It’s been flying under the radar recently, but the Bugatti Veyron (still in the top 3 for the 'world’s fastest car' award) has been produced for 10 years now. From the start, the French manufacturer announced that they would only produce 450 cars – 300 coupes and 150 convertibles – with updates during the production run; while the ‘’regular’’ Veyron 16.4 could only muster a feeble 1,000 horsepower, the current Grand Sport Vitesse boasts 183 more ponies.

We recently reported that the fat French land missile was about to retire; all the planned coupes had been sold, and as of a few months ago there were only eight Grand Sport Vitesses available.

It seems that the Veyron’s saga is finally ending. According to the manufacturer, the last one has been sold. To mark the occasion, this final Veyron will be showcased at the Geneva Auto Show. We don’t know much about it yet, but we will soon be able to see exactly what the owner has selected as options for this particular car.

As for the future of Bugatti, the brand’s chief engineer points out that their production cycle doesn’t really follow the rest of the automotive industry; he compares his cars to pieces of art. However, he assures us that the next Bug will be superior to the Veyron in every way.
