W16 Mistral - the art of bringing Bugatti’s ultimate roadster to life

Bugatti’s rich lineage of open-top performance icons is revered the world over.

Influenced by a standard of engineering that pushes established boundaries, challenges design norms and sets new benchmarks, the development of the W16 Mistral opens a new chapter in the brand’s unmatched roadster legacy.

The W16 Mistral is the first Bugatti roadster since the Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse which premiered in 2012.

The W16 Mistral is the last road-going Bugatti model that will be powered by the brand’s legendary W16 engine.

Crafted around the definitive 1,600 PS incarnation of Bugatti’s W16 engine, the W16 Mistral offers exquisite craftsmanship and luxury that is unlike any other open top car.

Intricate woven leather is used on newly designed door panels, which has been meticulously tested and produced to Bugatti’s highest quality standards.

The doors of the W16 Mistral are designed to absorb an exceptional amount of energy in the event of a side impact, thus keeping driver and passenger safe and secure.

Each component is designed not just to set new standards for beauty, but to also play a role in achieving completely new levels of performance for a roadster.

The soundscape inside the W16 Mistral is not limited to the visceral signature presence of the W16 engine; it is accompanied by a high-end sound system specially developed for the roadster.

Staying true to its roadster roots, the W16 Mistral is a perfect matrix of flawless engineering attributes fusing performance, comfort, safety, dynamics, handling and drivability.
