New Bugatti Tourbillon Makes Private Debut in Dubai with Hybrid V16

ABU DHABI : There will be only 250 units available for sale globally, with deliveries scheduled to begin in 2026.

Bugatti has unveiled the all-new Tourbillon hypercar. The Tourbillon replaces Chiron, and has a V16 hybrid setup and unmatched craftsmanship.

Private Preview in Dubai

Bugatti recently invited some selected guests to a closed-door session in Dubai to get up close with the all-new Tourbillon.

This was more than a mere reveal. It was a chance to see the prototype in person, which is very rare. The event gave us a first look at the fine updates on design and materials used.

From the front, it retains the iconic horseshoe grille. To add sharpness, there were the redesigned headlamps, while the rear had a sweeping full-width LED bar that gives it a modern touch.

Power and Performance Redefined

The most dramatic change is in its engine bay. The Chiron’s W16 is gone, and they replaced it with a newly developed powertrain.

Specification	Detail
Engine	8.3L Naturally Aspirated V16 (by Cosworth)
Electric motors	Three (hybrid setup)
Total power output	1,800 horsepower
0–100 kph	2.0 seconds
Top speed (limited)	380 kph
Top speed (speed key)	445 kph
Electric range	60 km (city mode)

The hybrid system gives it brutal acceleration with quiet, city-friendly electric mode when need arises.

Craftsmanship Meets Innovation

The name "Tourbillon" itself is to pay a tribute to Swiss watchmaking. The cabin lives up to it. The interior, which is inspired by traditional luxury, is unlike any other supercar. Some of the highlights of the cabin:

• Analogue dials mounted on a floating glass display.
• Real metal finishes and clear surfaces.
• A layout focused on beauty and balance.

During the Dubai preview, the fit and finish were flawless, even in the prototype. It proves that, beyond speed, Bugatti pays more attention to detail.
