Bugatti Chiron Super Sport ‘57 One of One’ | A Timeless Tribute to an Automotive Icon
In the fast-paced world of luxury sports cars, Bugatti continues to captivate enthusiasts with its latest creation, the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport ‘57 One of One.’ This exceptional vehicle, a tribute to the timeless Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic, seamlessly blends history, artistry, and cutting-edge automotive engineering. Let’s dive into the exquisite details that make this bespoke masterpiece stand out in the elite realm of hypersports cars.
The Chiron Super Sport ‘57 One of One’ draws inspiration from the iconic Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic, a masterpiece crafted nearly 90 years ago by the legendary Jean Bugatti. The exterior design pays homage to the original, with a silver-tinted blue hue meticulously recreated from the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, where the original Atlantic was showcased. The car also features a redesigned grille with polished vertical lines and a thicker center spine, embodying Bugatti’s ‘Form Follows Performance’ philosophy, a hand-drawn silhouette of the Atlantic on the underside of the rear wing, and a ‘57’ and ‘One of One’ lettering. The five-spoke Super Sport wheels, a combination of polished chrome and the original blue, complete the overall aesthetic, creating a modern interpretation that remains faithful to the Atlantic’s aesthetic.
The ‘57 One of One’ interior features a Gaucho brown leather-clad upholstery that accentuates the exterior’s design. The Atlantic’s silhouette is masterfully hand-stitched in ‘Lightning Blue’ on the door panels, while the center console proudly displays a custom inlay proclaiming ’57 One of One.’ The interior further pays tribute to Bugatti’s rich heritage with the delicate embroidery of the iconic ‘Dancing Elephant’ sculpture of Rembrandt Bugatti on the headrests. Signatures of Jean Bugatti and Rembrandt adorn the doorsills, creating a cohesive and artistic interior that reflects the passion and respect for Bugatti’s legacy.
Under the sleek surface, the Chiron Super Sport ‘57 One of One’ houses the formidable 8.0-liter 16-cylinder engine, delivering a staggering 1,578 hp that allows this Chiron to go from zero to 60 mph in just over two seconds and a claimed top speed of over 260 mph. Bugatti’s commitment to performance remains unwavering, making the ‘57 One of One’ not just a work of art but a high-performance marvel on the road.
As the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport ‘57 One of One’ owner gets to enjoy the driving experience, details on the pricing of this bespoke creation remain undisclosed, it’s safe to say that such exclusivity and craftsmanship come at a price befitting its status as a one-of-a-kind luxury sports car.
