However, with the launch of the Divo a few months
ago, Bugatti took a leap into a slightly more hardcore and focused segment of
the hypercar market, currently occupied by the likes of Koenigsegg and Pagani.
These renderings imagine a Bugatti even more extreme than the Divo.
Dubbed the Bugatti Type 100, the vehicle is the work
of Hao Hu and takes design inspiration from the Chiron. However, rather than
simply taking a Chiron and adding new aero parts, Hao has created a bespoke
body for the vehicle that incorporates some of the most important Bugatti
design traits.
The front of the vehicle is pretty wild and includes
a small Bugatti horseshoe grille, a pair of thin LED headlights, a carbon fiber
splitter, and an array of huge air intakes. The roof and windows are also very
low, helping to create a vehicle even more streamlined than the Chiron.
As head-turning as the front is, it is perhaps the
rear that’s even more impressive. Instead of a window, there’s a big piece of
carbon fiber that includes a wide roof scoop and a small sharkfin to help with
aerodynamics. Much of the rear is also exposed, allowing for air to exit out of
the fascia after it’s passed under and through the body of the car. Reports claim that Bugatti is
working a series of new Chiron-based vehicles in the vein of the Divo – and we
can’t wait to see them.
