With V16 Engine Developed by Cosworth, Three Electric Motors and Total Power of 1,800 HP, the Tourbillon Redefines the Concept of Hypercar.

Bugatti has revealed to the world its new supercar, the Tourbillon. The model marks a new era in the brand’s engineering, combining tradition and innovation with a hybrid system that integrates a naturally aspirated V16 engine and three electric motors.

The set impresses with its numbers and technical choices.

Gross Power with New Architecture

At the heart of the Tourbillon is the new 8.3-liter V16 engine, developed in partnership with Cosworth. The engine is naturally aspirated and reaches 9,000 rpm, producing an impressive power on its own. Together with the electric motors, the car achieves a total of 1,800 horsepower.

The V16 represents a significant change from the quad-turbo W16 used in the brand’s previous models, such as the Veyron and Chiron.

The focus now is on a high-rev aspirated setup, which reinforces the emotional and sporty character of the car.

Unique Hybrid System

The electrification of the Tourbillon was done in collaboration with Rimac, a company known for its expertise with high-performance electric cars.

According to Mate Rimac, CEO of Bugatti Rimac, the electric motors do not replace the combustion engine. Instead, they complement it, allowing the V16 to operate at maximum performance and excitement.

There are three electric motors in total: two on the front axle and one at the rear. Together, they add 800 horsepower. The rear electric motor is capable of reaching up to 24,000 rpm and also contributes to torque vectoring, improving drivability.

Integrated Battery and Electric Range

The electrical system is powered by a T-shaped 24.8 kWh and 800-volt battery. This battery is integrated into the car’s carbon composite monocoque, which reduces the total weight of the structure. As a result, the Tourbillon can run more than 60 km in 100% electric mode.

The electric motors are also responsible for providing torque at low rpms, eliminating the typical lag in the response of the e ngine.

Additionally, the system acts as a starter motor and allows for energy regeneration during use, recharging the battery.

Lightness and Extreme Performance

Despite the complexity of the system, Bugatti has managed to keep the weight under control. The rear assembly, which includes the V16 engine, eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, and electric motor, weighs 430 kg. This represents a reduction compared to the previous system used in the Chiron.

The predicted top speed of the Tourbillon exceeds 444 km/h, reinforcing its status as a next-generation hypercar.

The Tourbillon is currently in the Prototype Validation (VP) phase. This means that about 90 to 95% of the development has already been completed.

The model has not yet hit the streets, but it represents the future of Bugatti by uniting traditional engineering with modern hybrid solutions.

Lightness and Extreme Performance

At just 14 years old, a boy creates a system without energy, using steel pipes buried in the ground, that irrigates seedlings with moisture from the air, to combat the water scarcity threatening reforestation in northern China.

Where there was only sand and wind at 40 degrees, China built a megacity of 500,000 inhabitants with farms, wineries, and universities in the middle of the desert using melted glacier water from hundreds of kilometers away.

At over 8,800 meters above sea level, the summit of Mount Everest is made up of rocks that originated at the bottom of an ocean about 500 million years ago and were pushed to the highest point on Earth by the collision of tectonic plates.

A couple builds a system to bring water from the spring to their land, climbs a hill with materials on their backs, and creates a simple, cheap, and sustainable solution to ensure their own water supply.

The end of total solar eclipses has a deadline: the Moon is moving away from the Earth at about 3.8 cm per year, and in approximately 600 million years, it will no longer completely cover the Sun, ending one of the rarest coincidences in the Solar System.

With 40% of all the gold on the planet buried in a single geological basin that is 2.7 billion years old in South Africa, the Witwatersrand still hides R$ 3 trillion in unreachable reserves.

In the depths of the African forest, these rare and terrifying native species dominate rivers, swamps, and treetops with venom, brute strength, lethal teeth, and behaviors that seem impossible in the heart of the wild.

The gigantic steel shell built to contain Chernobyl for a century has been pierced by a drone, exposing a critical system and creating a hole that could cost over 500 million euros to repair.

Brazilian Navy reaches a new level by taking over an airport with a 1,600-meter runway used by 1,800 military personnel and autonomous attack drone testing.

Home environment can influence the brain, mood, and well-being: studies indicate an increase of up to 15% in productivity, a reduction of 12% in stress with plants, and a direct impact of the circadian rhythm on the 24 hours of the day.

He sold his share for R$ 4 thousand, saw the company become a giant worth R$ 19 trillion, and missed the opportunity of a lifetime.

Elon Musk’s Starship megafrocket puts $8 billion at risk, raises alarms in the market, and could affect technology, mining, and space internet startups in the coming years.

With a 293.5 cm³ engine and a range of up to 400 km with a 14.1-liter tank, the Honda CB 300F Twister 2026 has up to 24.7 hp, an initial price of R$ 25,150, and already exceeds R$ 29,000 in the Fipe Table.

With a 1.3 engine, nearly 700 km of range, and Turbo 200, the Fiat model surpasses Polo, Tera HB20, and Onix, becoming the best-selling car in March; see the numbers for the Fiat Strada and others.

The Honda Fit has been discontinued for years, but the 2018 model is worth more today in the Fipe table than it cost brand new, proving that this used car, valued with a 1.5 i-VTEC engine and Magic Seat, only increases in price.
