According to the latest scenes from Bugatti, the French hypercar manufacturer will no longer use the 8.0L W16 engine that was first introduced on the Veyron in September 2005, and continued to be used on the Chiron from March 2016.

Specifically, in the latest teaser, Bugatti has shown the image of the all-new V16 engine. The automaker said that after 8 years of launching the Chiron, this engine will “set a new peak in the automotive industry”. Accompanying this engine is the slogan “Pour l’éternité” (for eternity).
Some sources say this is an 8.3L naturally aspirated V16 engine manufactured by Cosworth. Others say that this V16 engine will be combined with 3 independent electric motors, producing more than 1,800 horsepower. Bugatti has not confirmed any information about this mechanism.

The Bugatti Rimac joint venture will officially launch this new model in June 2024. However, the delivery time may start from 2026, as current models such as the W16 Mistral and Bolide are in the production and delivery phase to customers.
