The Bugatti W16 Mistral has arrived in Tokyo, Japan as part of its world tour. Tokyo, known for its cutting-edge technology, rich culture and vast heritage, is an ideal city for demonstrating an excellent hypercar.





Bugatti takes over in 2021 Croatian startup Rimac, which marked the beginning of the car transition French brand for electric vehicles "rails". And it's not about that everyone is now concerned about environmental issues and protecting the atmosphere from exhaust gases of internal combustion engines! Just further the development of traditional aggregates the history of supercars, as it is in its time made the 1000-horsepower Bugatti Veyron no longer rewritten. As It would not sound regrettable, the future belongs to silent dynamics electric vehicles. Fortunately, this will not happen tomorrow! However, in 2022 year, Bugatti decided to pompously say goodbye to gasoline engines and introduced a limited version of the Chiron hypercar called W16 Mistral.





All copies from the planned series of 99 cars were sold long before the premiere! Is it a joke, the last petrol Bugatti?! Is not car as an investment. Clients who parted ways for Mistral since 5 million euros, will receive cars no earlier than 2024 ...



Bugatti designers were inspired, among other things, by the classic roadster 1934 Bugatti Type 57 Grand Raid. But this is only noticeable in interior and only in terms of the color scheme of the finish - they have changed a lot cars from the 30s of the last century. In the cabin, generally identical Chiron, you can find an exclusive transmission selector machined from solid piece of aluminum with an amber insert, inside which the sculpture "Elephant in the Circus" - a copy of the work of Rembrandt's brother Ettore Bugatti. Looks no worse than the "rose" on the gearshift lever of my grandfather's "Six" ...



Technically, the Bugatti W16 Mistral is identical to the Chiron modification. Super Sport 300+ i.e. here is an 8-liter W16 with 1,600 horsepower (!), seven-speed gearbox and four-wheel drive. Automobile extremely serious! Because it's a roadster, top speed treacherously limited at the level of 420 km / h ... Nevertheless, this is the most fastest production roadster by far, wig glue needed very high quality...



These excellent photos were taken in Japan, where the Bugatti W16 Mistral brought in as part of a world tour. People who paid their hard-earned money have the right to see the delivery of what they are waiting for.
