The Bolide, which made its public debut at Le Mans earlier this year, is without a doubt the most hardcore Bugatti hypercar yet. The model was designed to be the kind vehicle you can set a new personal record in each time you take it out on the track. A lot of this is due to a thunderously loud W16 that pumps out 1,578 hp and 1,180. It’s also light, tipping the scales at just 3,197 lbs, meaning it has a shocking weight-to-power ratio of close to 2 lb/hp. Add in a brash and angular design—especially by Bugatti’s usual standards—and you have the kind of car that’s sure to sell out despite not being street-legal.
