With the Veyron’s production cycle ending in 2012, Bugatti will have a slot to fill in their high dollar über performance segment (which is, of course, their only segment). They’re currently gauging interest of the four door category with the unveiling of this, the Galibier 16C concept. With Saab like headlights, side profile reminiscent of the new Aston Martin Rapide and a rear-end with hints of Porsche Panamera, it looks pretty good.
Power will come from the same 16 cylinder engine as the Veyron, only this time around it will be equipped with twin superchargers instead of four turbochargers. The body panels will be a combination of carbon fibre and aluminum to keep weight down, and will be styled after the Bugatti Type 57 Atlantique from the early 30’s. This means that you can now haul four people over 320 km/h instead of just two – simply marvelous.
