Bugatti 16C Galibier: Sporty Sedan Concept with 16-Cylinder Engine Breaks Cover

Revealed at a private event to customers and what Bugatti refers to as "opinion-makers" this past weekend at the firm's home in Molsheim, the 16 C Galibier is a conceptual proposal for a four-door, four seat sedan that could very well go into production in the next couple of years. According to Bugatti's current president, Dr. Ing. Franz-Josef Paefgen, the Galibier is one of several concept studies with which the company is considering for the future of the marque.

For those wondering, "Galibier" was named after one of the most difficult alpine passes along the Tour de France. Bugatti also used the name in the past on a special version of the four door Type 57.

Surprisingly for a car of our age where automotive designers usually try their hardest to create products that stand out of the crowd with distinctively repulsive styling traits, the Galibier 16 C features an uncluttered and straightforward design without any unnecessary gimmicks - okay, sans the.... eight tail pipes at the rear.

Echoing the styling of the famous Type 57 Atlantique, the Galibier 16 C combines a liftback bodystyle with the typical Bugatti radiator grille, large round LED headlights and the distinctive clamshell running the length of the vehicle.

The body of the concept car is constructed of handmade carbon fibre parts colored dark blue while the wings and doors are made out of polished aluminum.

The same straightforward design is also found in the interior. The dash panel elements been reduced to the bare essentials with two centrally located main gauges, a small instrument panel in front of the driver and a large LCD screen on the lower center console.

Underneath the bonnet, which folds back from both sides, there's a 16-cylinder, 8-litre, flex-fuel engine with two stage supercharging that can run on ethanol. Like all high-end VW Group products, the Galibier 16 C comes equipped with a four-wheel drive system.

It remains to be seen if Bugatti will bring its sedan concept car at the Frankfurt gathering as the company's press release did not say whether or not it will introduce the car at the show.

Bugatti Veyron Sang Bleu: One-Off Special Commemorates Brand's 100th Anniversary

Lately, it seems like wherever there's a show, there's a special edition version of the Veyron. Launched at this past weekend's annual Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegeance in California, the Sang Blue is an exclusive, one-off Grand Sport that once again honors the marque's 100th anniversary. What's special about the open-top Veyron Sang Blue is that even though the vehicle might look like it features a simple two-tone paint job, the blue colored parts are actually made out of carbon fibre while the shiny silver is polished aluminum.

In addition, the rear airscoops of the Gran Sport are tinted in a nightblue hue while the alloy-wheels are highlighted in a Midnight Blue and Diamond Cut two tone finish. Finally, the Sang Blue's interior is trimmed in a newly developed Gaucho leather.

Other than that, the one-off special retains the same mechanicals as the standard Grand Sport meaning that it's powered by an 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged 16-cylinder engine producing a mind-blowing 1,001 horsepower good enough to offer the supercar a top speed of 253 mph or 406 km/h.

Bugatti Teasing New Model in Frankfurt Show Invitation Card?

Could the vehicle pictured in this scanned photo from an official Bugatti invitation to a special event at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September be depicting the firm's long-rumored four-door sports sedan? Well, the only thing we can be certain of is that it isn't the Veyron - or at least not the current generation model.

Internet rumors, which have not been confirmed in any way by Bugatti or the VW Group for that matter, say that it may be a close-to-production concept study for a new uber-luxurious sedan heavily based on the underpinnings of the forthcoming Bentley Arnage replacement known as the 'Grand Bentley'.

For the time being and until we discover something new, we'll just keep this in the 'Rumorville' department.

VIDEO: Salesperson Takes Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport for a Quick Spin

If you're looking for a salesman going "slideways" or 200mph on the highway with a $2 million supercar, then sorry to say, you'll be disappointed. This video of the topless Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport was created by Adrian Hill, client advisor at St. Louis Motorsports located in Missouri. Apparently Adrian has found a different way to pitch the dealership's products by creating a string of videos that are somewhat goofy, yet charming due to their simplicity and his personal down-to-earth attitude.

Can't say if this particular video actually reaches the right clientele, but watching it makes you feel no different than if you visited a pal of yours who works at a ritzy dealership and he took you for a quick spin in a uber-expensive supercar.
