AutoExec Summary
Bugatti is replacing the W16 engine in its new hypercar with a more powerful V16, making it a hybrid. The successor to the Chiron will exceed its capabilities, with a release date set for June. The new car will be the last from retiring Design Director Achim Anscheidt, who also designed the Veyron and Chiron. The hybrid powertrain may also be a strategic move to avoid low-emission zone charges in Europe.
