Why it matters

The Profilée is a single Chiron variant positioned between the Chiron Sport and the hard-edged Pur Sport, and it was one of the last W16 Bugattis offered directly from the Molsheim Atelier. Because the Chiron's 500 production slots were already allocated, it remained a one-of-one.

History

Development began in autumn 2020, after customers asked for a Pur Sport with less radical character. The car kept the Pur Sport's 1,500 PS W16, with gearing 15 per cent shorter and springs ten per cent stiffer than the Chiron Sport, but replaced the large fixed rear wing with a sweeping fixed tail, allowing a 380 km/h top speed. By the time it was completed every Chiron slot had been assigned, so Bugatti sold the single car through RM Sotheby's in Paris on 1 February 2023, with part of the proceeds going to charity. The name refers back to the Type 46 created by Jean Bugatti.

Identification guide

How to tell an original from a replica or later conversion.

The car is identified by its Argent Atlantique paint, developed exclusively for it, over exposed Bleu Royal Carbon lower bodywork; a sweeping fixed rear tail with two tunnels through the carbon wing that draw hot air from the engine bay; wider front air inlets, an enlarged horseshoe grille and revised splitter; unique wheels in a Le Patron shade; and an interior with woven leather strips (the first Chiron so trimmed) and a black anodised inlay carrying the Profilée signature.
