Since its world premiere in August 2018, the Bugatti Divo has been amongst the world’s most extraordinary hyper sports cars. Now the first of a total of only 40 Divo are being handed over to customers from the Atelier in the Alsatian town of Molsheim - at a net unit price of €5 million. This marks the end of a challenging development process lasting almost two years.
"The Divo marks a milestone in Bugatti’s history spanning over 110 years. The Divo will now enter our history books alongside the cutting-edge Veyron and Chiron hyper sports cars," said Stephan Winkelmann, President of Bugatti. "The Divo starts a new era at Bugatti - the era of modern coachbuilding. With the Divo we have created a highly customised masterpiece of automotive craftsmanship that is a must-have for any Bugatti collection."
The new hyper sports car has been named after Albert Divo, a French pilot and racing driver who was also a Bugatti works driver for quite some time. In a period spanning 20 years, Divo claimed many victories, amongst others winning six Grand Prix races and two Targa Florio.
Unsurprisingly, the Divo uses the 8.0-liters W16 engine of the Chiron, with four turbocharges that give it a staggering torque curb, 1,600 Nm at 2,000-6,000 rpm and 1,479 hp at 6,700 rpm. The Divo takes 2.4 seconds to sprint to 100 km/h and its top speed has been limited to 380 km/h. It also returns 6.7/15.5/10.5 mpg in city/highway/combined on the WLTP cycle.
