In an interview with Emirates Business 24/7, Bugatti spokesman Julius Kruta had confirmed Bugatti will build another car, more expensive and better than the supercar Veyron. Since then, the company might have changed its mind.
According to Motor Trend, the company has cancelled the project as it would have been redundant with the current Veyron. Dubbed Lydia, the project was rumoured to be another supercar powered by a 1175bhp engine costing £1.9 million and built at 70 units.
However, the plan to expand the lineup hasn’t been ruled out as the company is seriously considering building a super saloon which would be powered by the Veyron’s engine. It is rumoured that the price would top the £3 million mark and the future saloon would be a full bespoke model.
