Exclusive! Next one-off Bugatti to be inspired by the original Veyron

If you have been following us, you might be aware that a new one-off Bugatti is set to debut next month. It will be the second model under the Solitaire programme after the Brouillard. As per our sources, it is scheduled to be officially revealed on January 22, 2026.

The Brouillard is essentially a coupe version of the world’s fastest open-top production car, the Mistral. Similarly, the new one-off will also be inspired by a legendary model. It is said to be an homage to the original Bugatti Veyron 16.4 chassis no. 001.

The very first Veyron was finished in a two-tone red and black paint scheme – a classic configuration. The upcoming Solitaire one-off is also likely to sport a similar theme.

The Veyron was the most advanced road car of its time. The engine powering it was equally legendary. Initially, the quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W16 generated 1000 hp. It has been updated over the years, and the latest iteration makes 1600 hp. This same engine will power the new Veyron-inspired one-off.

It’s been 20 years since the Veyron went into production, which also makes it the perfect time to celebrate this automotive legend.
