Most Expensive New Car Ever Sold – The Bugatti La Voiture Noire had a price tag of $18.7 million (including taxes), making it the most expensive new car ever sold at the time of its release in 2019.

A Tribute to the Lost Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic – The name "La Voiture Noire" (French for "The Black Car") is a tribute to Jean Bugatti’s legendary Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic, which mysteriously disappeared during World War II.

One-of-a-Kind Hypercar – Bugatti only produced one unit of La Voiture Noire, making it one of the rarest and most exclusive cars in automotive history.

Massive Quad-Turbo W16 Engine – The car is powered by a quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W16 engine, producing 1,479 hp (1,500 PS) and 1,600 Nm of torque, the same as the Bugatti Chiron.

0-100 km/h in Just 2.4 Seconds – Despite its luxurious grand touring focus, La Voiture Noire accelerates from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 2.4 seconds, thanks to its Chiron-based drivetrain.

Custom Carbon Fiber Body – Unlike other Bugatti models, La Voiture Noire features a unique, handcrafted carbon fiber body, with a sleek, flowing design inspired by the original Type 57 SC Atlantic.

Six Exhaust Pipes for a Distinctive Look – The car’s rear end features six exhaust pipes, an engineering and design statement that pays homage to Bugatti’s past while emphasizing its extreme performance.

Ultra-Luxurious Interior – Though Bugatti hasn’t revealed much of its interior, it is expected to feature the finest leather, aluminum, and carbon fiber, offering unparalleled comfort and craftsmanship.

Longer and More Elegant Than the Chiron – While based on the Bugatti Chiron, La Voiture Noire has an extended wheelbase and a sleeker, more flowing design, making it a true hyper-GT rather than just a hypercar.

Owner’s Identity Remains a Mystery – The car was sold to an anonymous Bugatti collector, with speculation that it might have been purchased by Cristiano Ronaldo or Ferdinand Piëch (former VW Group chairman), though this has never been confirmed.
