Bugatti Unveils New Atelier In Molsheim Ahead Of Tourbillon Production
Bugatti doesn't just build cars - it builds temples to speed, craftsmanship, and engineering theater. And now, nestled in the historic grounds of Château Saint Jean, the French marque has unveiled its latest monument: a new, world-class production facility designed to usher in the age of the isn't just an upgrade. It's a statement. The new atelier blends contemporary architecture with Bugatti's natural surroundings in Molsheim, Alsace, where the brand has operated for over a century. Stretching 132 meters in length and cloaked in wild grass that crawls over 30% of its sloping roof, the building seems to rise gently from the landscape, mirroring the restraint and purpose behind Bugatti's latest hypercars - especially the newly revealed Bugatti Tourbillon. The workshop's sleek exterior - darkened walls paired with glowing glass panels - hides an interior designed with equal precision. Expansive eastern windows draw in the morning sun, while ceiling skylights flood the hall with daylight throughout the day. The result is more than just a pleasant workplace. It's an environment that inspires the roughly 50 craftspeople who will assemble some of the most complex machines on Earth. Inside, the new atelier doubles Bugatti's previous production capacity. The company has brought more of the manufacturing process in-house, streamlining everything from sub-component construction to final body-chassis integration. It's the most advanced setup in the company's 116-year history - and that history is front of mind as Bugatti transitions from the final, celebratory Chiron to the future-forward Tourbillon. While the new facility focuses on engineering excellence, the former Macaron-shaped atelier has found a new calling: guest experience. The old building will become a showcase of Bugatti's legacy, offering visitors a glimpse into cabin assembly and design detail - a uniquely Bugatti blend of luxury hospitality and hypercar a fitting tribute to a space that helped birth record-breakers like the Chiron Super Sport and Mistral, the latter of which recently reclaimed the title of world's fastest convertible. "We are currently steering the biggest Bentley design revolution in our history," says Frederic Daul, Director of Operations at Bugatti - although to be fair, this is more than just a revolution. It's a redefinition. With the Tourbillon's mix of 1,000-hp V16 combustion and 800-hp electric assistance, and with production set to begin later this year, Bugatti is building both the car and the facility worthy of its next brick and pane of glass in this atelier is part of that story. A new chapter in Molsheim is being written - one where timeless craftsmanship and cutting-edge tech collide under one beautifully sloped roof. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc.

Daily Horoscope for July 19, 2025
General Daily Insight for July 19, 2025 Pride may hinder progress today. The intuitive Moon clashes with rational Mercury, making it tough to express ourselves clearly — frustration may follow. Later, the Sun challenges wounded healer Chiron, suggesting ego could block healing if we're not careful. Fortunately, the Moon aligns with bold Mars, empowering us to speak our truth and find inner courage. Bottling things up won't help, while releasing pride and embracing vulnerability can move us forward. We should not be forcing ourselves to keep everything inside. Aries March 21 – April 19 You may feel tempted to downplay your achievements to preserve someone else's pride. If you're holding back to protect their ego, consider whether they truly made you feel this way or if you assumed it yourself. True friends celebrate each other's successes. If they can't be happy for you, it's worth asking whether they genuinely support you. Honoring your own growth shouldn't diminish theirs. Share your wins without guilt — you've earned them, and the right people will cheer you on. Taurus April 20 – May 20 You might be guarding a secret that your ego wants to share. Though the urge to reveal it for validation is strong, doing so could spark jealousy or disrupt your progress. Some things are better kept private for now. You don't need external praise to feel proud. By keeping this moment close to your heart, you protect its integrity. Quiet celebration can be just as powerful (plus, no one else can ruin what they don't know about). Let your success speak silently. Gemini May 21 – June 20 Stability might finally be settling in, and it could be helping more than just you. After a stretch of highs and lows, you're hesitant to acknowledge the calm, fearing it might vanish. But those who care about you may be hoping for exactly such news. Sharing your progress shouldn't jinx it. In fact, it can bring relief and connection. Let others know you're finding your footing, because even if it's temporary, it's real. You deserve to feel supported in moments of both chaos and peace. Cancer June 21 – July 22 Putting yourself first might stir old insecurities. Someone in your past may have made you feel selfish for doing so, but that belief no longer serves you. Balance is essential, since you can't care for others if you're constantly drained. Taking care of yourself isn't selfish; it's necessary. Remember, your needs matter just as much as anyone else's, so fill your cup before pouring into others' vessels. This is your reminder that prioritizing your well-being is not only valid, but deeply important. Leo July 23 – August 22 What you're learning now is best kept private. Someone may be confiding in you, and while the temptation to share with others (especially curious pals) is strong, doing so risks breaking trust. Even well-meant disclosures can lead to misunderstandings or damaged relationships. Protecting a secret shows integrity. If someone wants their truth known, it's theirs to tell. In contrast, your role is to listen and honor their vulnerability. Trust is fragile! Handle it with care, and you'll prove yourself worthy of it. Virgo August 23 – September 22 Needing to be in charge could get you in hot water. You may feel that you would be the best person to lead right now, but other people might not agree with you. When trying to lead a group, you must consider everyone's wants and needs. Be open to sharing the reins with other people at present, or you could be seen as bossy or demanding when the situation does not require it. It's important to pick your battles, so choose very wisely. Libra September 23 – October 22 You might be craving deeper connection. Perhaps your current circle doesn't fully understand or reflect who you are. Remind yourself that it's okay to explore friendships that align more with your values and interests. Broadening your social world doesn't mean abandoning old friends, it simply means making space for people who truly get you. Shared passions can lead to meaningful bonds and help you feel more fulfilled. Stay open to connection by letting yourself be seen for who you truly are. Scorpio October 23 – November 21 You're unlearning outdated beliefs about connection. In the past, you may have told yourself that solitude was safer, or that withholding parts of your life kept you from getting hurt. But protecting yourself this way may also be keeping you from meaningful bonds. Vulnerability is risky, but it's also the gateway to closeness. If you want deeper relationships, you'll need to open up. Bolster your courage by keeping in mind all the rewards of real connections. Give a little — gain a lot. Sagittarius November 22 – December 21 You're learning to respect your emotions. In the past, you may have brushed off your feelings — or someone else's — to keep things light or protect egos. But ignoring your emotions doesn't make them disappear, it only leaves them unresolved. Humor is helpful, but it's not a cure-all. Take your feelings seriously before trying to laugh them off. Once you've processed them, you can look for a joke. Your emotions deserve space to be felt — not just dismissed for the sake of comfort. Capricorn December 22 – January 19 Someone else's ego may be guiding your actions more than you realize. You might justify it by thinking you're the more mature one, always stepping in to help them avoid consequences. But over time, this may lead to resentment — and you being taken for granted. Just because you can handle their chaos doesn't mean you should have to! Letting them face their own issues can be the most compassionate act. Protect your energy and set boundaries. You're not responsible for fixing everything. Aquarius January 20 – February 18 You may feel misunderstood when expressing your emotions. Maybe others have criticized the way you communicate, making you question whether you're doing it wrong. Now's a good time to reflect: Are you truly being unclear, or are you surrounded by people who don't want to understand? Improving your communication is valuable, but so is being around those who accept you as you are. You deserve space to express yourself! Find the people who get it, or start making room for new ones who do. Pisces February 19 – March 20 You may be chasing drama for the thrill. If boredom has set in, you might be tempted to stir things up just to feel alive again — but be careful. Acting on impulse for excitement's sake can lead to emotional fallout, both for yourself and others. Make sure you're not creating chaos just to escape stillness. There are healthier ways to bring passion back into your life. Choose adventures that lift you up — not ones that leave you cleaning up the mess.

Plenty of rain and no roof! We drive the £5.2mil Bugatti Mistral
Comparing a Bugatti to a 'normal' car is probably like comparing Concorde and a paper aeroplane. The Mistral – on behalf of all W16-era models – represents a place and time in humanity's engineering journey that broke boundaries and pushed the limits of what a road car could be. Yet what's most incredible is how easy the Mistral is to use, and how beautifully polished its driving experience is. Advertisement - Article continues below Few modern brands command as much reverence as Bugatti. This iconic manufacturer of ultra-luxury cars has always seemed to operate in a vacuum, building the most exquisite and finely formed cars, irrespective of cost. This isn't just in terms of the quality of leather used on the seats or its carbon-fibre body work, but the otherworldly engineering that goes into every single nut and bolt. It's always a privilege to drive a Bugatti, but to drive the Mistral – which is the last, and one of the most expensive, of this generation – well, that's bucket list stuff. But what is the Mistral? Named after a strong wind in southern France, its limited-run of 99 units is a celebration of the Chiron era, fitted with a completely bespoke open-top body and a powertrain derived from the wild, record-breaking Chiron Super Sport 300+. In fact, to call it a powertrain is probably something of a disservice, because it's arguably better likened to the propulsion units of steampunk locomotives – something that isn't without precedent, given that Bugatti's pre-war straight-eight did power high-speed trains during the second world war. Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below View e-208 View 500L View Stonic The Mistral's W16, though, is far more sophisticated than anything connected to rail tracks, with eight litres of swept capacity and four turbochargers providing incredible thrust without any electronic assistance. Power is rated at 1,577bhp, with 1,600Nm of torque driving all four wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. These figures might lack genuine shock and awe in the age of electric hypercars, but as we'll come to, the ability to generate such performance through purely mechanical means is quite a different experience. Advertisement - Article continues below An acceleration time almost seems arbitrary, but the 0-62mph time of 2.5 seconds is still impressive. Yet like all modern Bugattis, this hypercar is more about ultimate speed and this is where the Mistral blows the competition into the weeds. Most customer models like the one we're driving today are limited to 260mph, but Bugatti was able to hit an astounding 282.03mph with a one-off customer car painted in the iconic carbon and orange livery that goes with all its record-breaking models. Being macabre for a second, I can't help but wonder what would happen if you were to put your hand up into the airstream at 280mph. Of course there's so much more detail to drink in, such as the exquisite exposed carbon-fibre body or the timeless interior, but our time is limited and we're here to drive it. Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below Walking towards the Mistral from a distance, you notice just how tightly packaged a modern Bugatti is. Yes, the engine is roughly four times the size of the average ICE engine, and it comes with four times as many turbos, but sitting within the compact two-seater carbon-fibre chassis, the car feels no bigger or more intimidating to drive than an Audi TT. Those early comparisons from back when the Veyron was new have stuck, it seems, but even after the engine has whumped into life and you're under way, it might even be easier to drive than a TT. That's because it instantly feels approachable. There's a lot of moving parts only centimetres away from you, but the twin-clutch box slurs its gears effortlessly, and there's no gnashing of driveline components or suspension parts despite their need to withstand speeds four times higher than the UK's national speed limit. Advertisement - Article continues below Yet what keeps it from feeling a little too easy or benign is the incredible noise coming from behind you. A W16 isn't as inherently musical as a V12, but there is a unique combination of deep, guttural sounds that you feel as much as hear. This is overlaid by a symphony of whooshes from the turbochargers, reiterating that steampunk overtone. Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below By now we're out on bigger roads, and rain that's threatened all morning is now falling. As any convertible driver knows, driving faster stops you from getting wet, right? So that's what I do. Push the throttle pedal down into its travel and you can sense that there's a whole array of components working in harmony to deliver performance. Given the highly turbocharged nature of the engine, torque swells at low revs, and does so more than quickly enough to require your full concentration, even with four driven wheels to share it. At around 4,500rpm, though, the quite old-fashioned manner in which the turbochargers spool comes to light, because you can actually hear a solenoid switch the airflow from just feeding two turbochargers into all four. Now, the Mistral is capable of firing you down the road without any care for such things like physics. The feeling is completely different to the 2,000bhp electric hypercars that achieve their performance – impressive though it is – without much in the way of pomp and circumstance. Advertisement - Article continues below It's totally addictive, and even though I'm ensuring I measure out my inputs because it's now raining torrentially (to the point that streams of water enter the cabin over the top of the windscreen and side windows) it's thrilling to the point of exasperation. No wonder dictators find it so hard to give up access to state-owned militaries; this type of power at the hands of one person is something quite incredible. When the roads eventually dry out a little, the next discovery is just how wonderfully agile and finely honed the ride and handling package is alongside that incredible engine. Costing over £5.2m, the Mistral was always going to be made up from only the best components, but there's a sophistication and polish to all the driving elements that really takes me by surprise. Whether it be the steering, the ride quality over rough roads, or the oily slickness of the drivetrain itself, the Bugatti reeks of quality like no other car. Unfortunately time, weather and the local road laws prevent me from digging deeper into extraordinary car's talents, but even with this small level of exposure, it makes perfect sense how and why Bugatti has been able to convince its customers to part with literally millions of pounds for the past 20 years in its modern era. So while £5.2m is a lot for a car, the Mistral doesn't really feel like just a car. Instead, it's an example of humanity's debonair creativity that can only be unlocked when those sorts of numbers are involved. But as one chapter closes with the Mistral and its iconic W16 engine, so will the door open to another with the new Bugatti Tourbillion – we can't even begin to fathom what it has in store.

Your Horoscope This Week: 13th To 19th July
Cosmic beings, this is the week to slow down, not speed up. Retrograde season officially kicks into high gear as Saturn, the Planet of Responsibility, begins its retrograde in Aries on 13th July. With Neptune, Planet of Fantasy, already retrograde in Pisces since the 4th and Mercury about to join the club on the 18th, the vibe is less 'go time' and more 'review time.' Think of this as the moment where you sit with your inner clipboard and ask: What was I trying to prove? Who was I trying to be? And what am I actually ready to focus on now? Saturn in Aries is here to check our impulses, our leadership patterns, and our core sense of responsibility. This is the first Saturn retrograde in Aries of the 21st Century, so for many of us, we've never navigated this flavour of cosmic accountability before. It's not just about what we're doing, it's about why we're doing it. The moon enters Pisces as the week begins, encouraging rest, imagination, and nonlinear growth. If your goals have felt fuzzy or far away, that's okay… you're being invited to trust the mist. And by midweek, the moon shifts into Aries, linking up with retrograde Saturn and potentially sparking a major 'a-ha' moment about what you actually want to pour your energy into for the rest of the year. Think back to January: What did you say you were going to do? What fire did you want to build, and what has quietly fizzled out? This retrograde gives us the discipline (and humility) to recommit to the right things and release what's not aligned. Mercury retrograde in Leo enters the chat on the 18th, and things might start to feel loud. Leo rules pride, ego, attention, and expression — and Mercury retrograde here can bring up miscommunications, power struggles, performative apologies, and ego flares that look like self-love but feel like drama. So here's the assignment: stay in your own lane. Protect your energy and don't take the bait. Be extra clear in your words and even clearer in your intentions. When things feel tense, remember that putting yourself first doesn't mean bulldozing others… it means honouring your truth without dimming or dominating. This retrograde is not about playing small or playing saviour. It's about being real. Then comes the beauty of the Taurus Moon on Friday. This is the first time the moon has returned to Taurus since Uranus exited the sign, which means it's gonna feel softer, safer, slower. Less electric. Less unpredictable. It's a perfect weekend to touch grass, cook real food, spend time with the people who know your middle name and your favourite candle scent. You don't have to be 'on.' You don't have to be optimising. You just have to be present. Taurus reminds us that pleasure is not frivolous — it's foundational. Let yourself ground. With Saturn, Neptune, and now Mercury all retrograde, and Chiron prepping to retrograde in Aries at the end of the month, remember this: you don't have to win every battle. You don't have to defend every idea. You don't have to chase every opportunity. All signs are being asked to move more mindfully, speak more carefully, and fight only for what's worth fighting for. Everything else? Let it go with grace. Let this be the week you remember that slowing down isn't falling behind. It's how you catch up to your soul. Aries Sun & Rising: Aries, are you ready for a complete internal rewiring? This week on the 13th, Saturn, planet of responsibility, begins its retrograde in your sign, marking a profound checkpoint in your personal journey. For the past few months, you've been scripting a new version of yourself — testing boundaries, stepping into leadership, finding your voice — but Saturn's backward dance is a reminder that growth isn't just about momentum, it's about integration. This retrograde asks: What kind of authority are you becoming in your own life? Where are you still outsourcing your power, or rushing your transformation? With Neptune also retrograde in your sign and Chiron about to follow, this is deep soul excavation time. You're not the person you were at the start of 2025, now it's about catching up to who you're becoming. Midweek brings a second retrograde punch. Mercury slows down in Leo, in your sector of creativity, passion, and romantic expression. If you've been moving fast in matters of the heart, or launching creative ideas without fully reflecting on the why, Mercury's slowdown offers a chance to refine your message. A past love, muse, or artistic vision may reappear, not to confuse you, but to help you remember your why. What lights you up without draining you? What forms of joy are you ready to return to, or finally protect? With both of these fire-sign retrogrades activating you, you're learning that your power doesn't come from pushing; it comes from remembering what truly matters. Taurus Sun & Rising: Taurus, are you ready to finally trust your intuition again? Saturn begins its retrograde in Aries on 13th July, activating your sector of spirituality, healing, and closure. This is one of the most internal transits of your chart, and now with both Saturn and Neptune retrograde here (and Chiron joining soon), you're being guided to slow all the way down and listen to what's unspoken. You may be shedding old grief, subconscious fears, or stories about your worth that were never yours to carry. Saturn is helping you close a karmic chapter, but not through rushing or reasoning… through stillness and softness. The more time you spend offline, resting, reflecting, journaling, meditating — the more clarity you'll receive about what your soul is really ready to step into in 2025 and beyond. Then Mercury begins its retrograde in Leo on the 18th, lighting up your sector of home, family, and emotional security. You may feel pulled to reconnect with the past, especially your roots. Old conversations with family, childhood friends, or even former versions of yourself could rise to the surface. But this retrograde isn't just nostalgic, it's clarifying. You're being asked: What does safety mean to me now? Where have I been sacrificing comfort for control, or routine for someone else's expectations? This week is about making peace with your foundation and rewriting the emotional contracts that no longer serve you. The healing begins within. Gemini, are you ready to rethink your long-term vision? Saturn begins its retrograde in Aries on 13th July, activating your sector of friendships, community, and future plans. With Neptune already retrograde here and Chiron soon to follow, you're being called to get serious about what you actually want your future to look like, and who you want to build it with. This isn't just about goals on paper … it's about energetic alignment. Who do you feel safe to dream with? Which collaborations are draining, and which ones are nourishing? This retrograde is your cosmic editing session: keep what supports your highest evolution, release what no longer resonates. Midweek, your ruler Mercury stations retrograde in Leo in your communication sector, and the vibe could get a little messy. You might feel misunderstood, interrupted, or like your brilliance isn't landing. That's okay… it's temporary. This retrograde is asking you to reflect before reacting and to clarify your message before you hit send. Revisit past writing, pitches, or content: there's gold in what you've already said. And if someone from the past reaches out, ask yourself if it's for closure or curiosity. Not every message needs a reply. But every moment is an invitation to refine how you speak your truth. Cancer Sun & Rising: Cancer, are you ready to redefine what success looks like for you? Saturn begins its retrograde in Aries on 13th July, lighting up your sector of career, legacy, and reputation. With Neptune already retrograde in this house, and Chiron about to follow, this is a turning point in how you show up in the world. Maybe you've felt pressure to perform, achieve, or maintain a version of success that no longer feels aligned. This Saturn retrograde asks: What are you actually working toward, and why? What parts of your ambition need restructuring so you don't burn out on the way to becoming? This retrograde isn't about quitting… It's about recommitting to what matters most. As Mercury turns retrograde in Leo on the 18th, your sector of finances and self-worth is activated, adding another layer of reflection. This transit invites you to revisit your relationship with money, your voice, and your value. Are you charging what you're worth? Are you undervaluing your time, your talents, or your truth? This retrograde may bring financial lessons, unexpected delays, or old money patterns to the surface. Don't panic, just pause. You're being asked to strengthen your foundation, not abandon your dreams. Real confidence comes from clarity. Take your time. Leo Sun & Rising: Leo, are you ready to let go of the pressure to have it all figured out? Saturn begins its retrograde in Aries on 13th July, activating your sector of belief, expansion, and higher learning. This is your moment to get radically honest with yourself about what you believe, why you believe it, and how those beliefs are shaping your life. With Neptune already retrograde here and Chiron joining later this month, you're on a deep quest for truth — and not just the intellectual kind. This retrograde invites you to reassess your spiritual, philosophical, or educational commitments. Maybe it's time to step back from something that once inspired you, or finally return to a path you thought you left behind. Trust your own evolution. And then, plot twist: Mercury stations retrograde in your sign on 18th July. So yeah, it might feel like the spotlight dims a little. You might second-guess your voice, your direction, or your image. But this isn't a crisis… It's a recalibration. You're being asked to reconnect with the most authentic version of yourself. Not the one who performs, impresses, or perfects, but the one who's real, raw, and rooted. Use this time to review your messaging, your brand, your self-talk. What are you putting out into the world, and how is it reflecting back to you? You don't have to be the loudest to be the clearest. Take the mic back, gently. Virgo, are you ready to renegotiate your relationship with power? Saturn begins its retrograde in Aries on 13th July, activating your sector of intimacy, trust, and transformation. This is deep work, Virgo: the kind that requires vulnerability, patience, and some serious shadow acknowledgment. With Neptune already retrograde here and Chiron about to join, you're in a portal of emotional healing. Maybe you're letting go of old debts (financial or energetic), confronting fears of abandonment, or learning how to share without losing yourself. Saturn's retrograde asks: Where have I been over-giving? Where have I been too guarded? This is your season of emotional discernment. Then Mercury, your planetary ruler, shifts retrograde in Leo on the 18th, in your sector of the subconscious and closure. You might feel a bit foggy, sleepier than usual, or like the past is resurfacing in strange ways (dreams, memories, unexpected messages). Don't fight it. This is your time to retreat inward, reflect, and unplug. If you're dealing with burnout, guilt, or anxiety, this retrograde invites you to address the why instead of just pushing through. Rest is not laziness, and silence is not weakness. Take the time you need… You're shedding a layer of yourself you've outgrown. Libra Sun & Rising: Libra, are you ready to redefine what partnership means to you? Saturn begins its retrograde in Aries on 13th July, lighting up your sector of relationships, commitments, and long-term bonds. With Neptune already retrograde here and Chiron soon to follow, you're being asked to slow down and check in: Are the relationships in your life helping you evolve, or holding you in a loop? Whether romantic, business, or even your relationship to your own reflection, this retrograde is here to help you discern the difference between commitment and codependency. You may revisit past promises, rework how you show up for others, and realise that your standards are shifting… and that's a good thing. Mercury then begins its retrograde in Leo on the 18th, stirring reflection in your sector of community, friendship, and future vision. You might find yourself questioning who you're walking with, and why. Maybe old friend groups resurface, a collaboration fizzles, or a plan you were excited about needs to be paused. Don't see it as rejection… see it as redirection. You're meant to align with the people who get your evolution, not the ones who are stuck in your past. Use this retrograde to reimagine your long-term goals and recommit to the dream, but only with those who can build it with you from a place of mutual respect. Scorpio Sun & Rising: Scorpio, are you ready to reclaim your energy? Saturn retrograde begins in Aries on 13th July, activating your sector of health, wellness, work, and rituals. With Neptune already retrograde here and Chiron next in line, this transit is a full-body reminder that your current systems are either supporting your healing, or draining it. If burnout has crept in, or if you've been stuck in 'overperform mode,' Saturn is now gently but firmly asking you to restructure. You don't need to grind your way to wholeness. You need rhythm, boundaries, clarity. This week, pay attention to what your body is trying to say. You're not lazy… you're being rerouted back to sustainable flow. Then Mercury shifts retrograde in Leo on the 18th, activating your career and public image zone. People might have opinions about how you show up, but this retrograde is your cue to zoom out. What do you want to be known for? Are you working for legacy or applause? Use this retrograde to refine your mission, revisit old projects, and quiet the noise of outside expectations. You may be in the middle of a professional plot twist, but that doesn't mean you're lost. It means you're evolving. Slow down and listen to the strategy your soul's been trying to share with you. Sag, are you ready to fall back in love with your life, but on your own terms this time?
