Bugatti Unveils the Beastly New 1,577 HP Mistral
The W16 Mistral is a car of superlatives. At a price of $5 million (4.519.000 Euros) and a production run of only 99 examples, (Already sold out) there’s no denying it’s exclusive, and it’s powered by an equally exotic motor. As its name suggests, it’s powered by a quad-turbo W16 engine like all the other Chiron-derived Bugatti’s. What its name doesn’t let on, though, is that it will be the last W16-powered Bugatti ever. Nevertheless, the powerplant makes a monstrous 1,578 hp (1,600 PS / 1,177 kW) and 1,180 lb-ft (1,600 Nm) of torque, rocketing the Mistral to a top speed of 261 mph (420 km/h). And seeing as it’s a roadster, that can be accomplished with the wind blowing through your hair. Not a bad way to send off the W16.
