Bugatti is giving a glimpse of its future beyond the Veyron with this W16-powered four-seat limousine.

Like its two-seat stablemate, the 16C Galibier aims to be the ultimate: the fastest, most powerful, most elegant and expensive car in the world.

Officially it’s a concept car, but Bugatti has started showing the Galibier to customers and opinion-makers, last weekend in Molsheim.

The Galibier’s design masters the challenge of uniting sportiness with the comfort and elegance of a modern four-door saloon.

The basic architecture picks up on the torpedo-like character of the Type 35, which was already revived in the Veyron, and reinterprets it.
