Bugatti recently marked 115 years of automotive brilliance at the prestigious Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille event, hosted at the Château de Chantilly in France. With over 20,000 attendees, the event celebrated a century of Bugatti’s innovative engineering and racing heritage, blending the past with the future through stunning displays of classic and modern models.
One of the standout moments of the weekend was Bugatti’s unveiling of a new Tourbillon timepiece, created in collaboration with luxury watchmaker Jacob & Co. Drawing inspiration from Bugatti’s iconic models like the Type 57SC Atlantic and Type 35, the Tourbillon combines the artistry of horology with the spirit of Bugatti’s hypercars. This new timepiece reflects Bugatti’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of both automotive and watchmaking excellence.
In addition to the Tourbillon, attendees were treated to a showcase of Bugatti’s legendary models. Historic vehicles such as the Bugatti Type 35 were on display, celebrating the brand’s strong racing legacy. These classic models were complemented by the Bolide 100-year anniversary edition, demonstrating Bugatti’s continued dedication to motorsport innovation. The display highlighted the evolution of the brand, from its early racing days to the cutting-edge hypercars of today.
The event also featured a Supercars Rally, which included the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport, allowing guests to experience the power and elegance of Bugatti’s modern lineup. The weekend concluded with a vibrant celebration at the Château, capping off a remarkable tribute to the brand’s 115-year journey of automotive excellence.
