The windscreen and top line of the windows give a real wraparound ‘visor’ effect, hiding the A-pillars and providing a modern interpretation of the ‘Grand Raid’ Type 57, a 1934 roadster bodied by Gangloff. The Grand Raid also provides the colour scheme for the first Mistral, which is a warm black with yellow accents. That’s a personal homage to Ettore Bugatti, who chose yellow and black for many of his own cars.
This leaves the air down the sides free for the oil coolers. The taillights take on an ‘X’ shaped motif, and the negative space between them is used to vent the side radiators. ‘We know the W16 Mistral will always have significance in the story of Bugatti, marking the last time that perhaps the greatest ever automotive powertrain is used in the roadgoing production car.’
‘Will a screen still work as well in 15 or 30 years?’ he asks. ‘Even a Bugatti made today needs to be able to sit on the lawn at Pebble Beach in 30 years and still work.’
