Bugatti Tourbillon's $240K Exhaust Package Costs More Than a Whole Maybach
Read the full story on Modern Car Collector Bugatti's yet-to-be-unveiled Tourbillon hypercar is already making waves, with leaked renderings showcasing an ultra-exclusive option that costs more than a Mercedes-Maybach S-Class. Dubbed the Equipe Pur Sang package, this $240,000 add-on enhances the Tourbillon's design while solidifying its place as one of the most extravagant hypercars ever built. For those willing to spend beyond the car's estimated $4 million base price, the Equipe Pur Sang package brings several distinctive styling upgrades. The front bumper receives a redesign, while the air intakes and diffuser feature a restyled look with new body-colored fins. The most striking addition, however, is the hypercar's radical eight-pipe exhaust system—four on each side—setting a record for the most exhaust outlets ever fitted to a production vehicle. Bugatti enthusiasts will also notice exclusive Equipe Pur Sang badging, prominently displayed on the headrests, dashboard, and exterior, including the horseshoe grille and the rear customizable wing. The hypercar shown in leaked configurator images sports a Matt Vermillion finish with exposed Matt Red carbon fiber, as well as newly developed Aeorlithe upholstery with contrasting stitching. While the package focuses on aesthetics rather than performance, the Tourbillon remains a technological marvel. The hypercar is expected to feature an 8.3-liter naturally aspirated V16 developed with Cosworth, supplemented by two rear-mounted electric motors. The hybrid setup is projected to deliver a staggering 1,755 horsepower, enabling a 0-60 mph sprint in approximately 1.9 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 8.8 seconds, and a top speed of 236 mph.
