Quad-Motor hybrid powertrain: A modern engineering marvel

Bugatti just dropped the Tourbillon, a hybrid hypercar that blends wild performance with modern tech.
Revealed in June 2024, it pairs a naturally aspirated V16 engine with an 800-volt electric motor—so you get both classic horsepower and future-friendly efficiency.

TL;DR

Bugatti's hybrid hypercar offers 1,973hp

The Tourbillon's setup delivers 1,973hp in total, thanks to its V16 engine and three electric motors (including two up front that spin up to 24,000rpm).
Its T-shaped battery lets you drive up to 60km on pure electric power.
By ditching the old W16 engine and slimming down components, Bugatti made this beast lighter and more agile—without sacrificing any of that signature speed.
