Known for making the world's fastest production car Bugatti now to go the hybrid with its new Galibier
Started in 1909 by Ettore Bugatti, it has not just seen success in the production world but also in the racing biz. The German automobile manufacturing company does not just produce cars. Bugatti’s production lines also see creation of airplanes and on few occasions even railcars.
One thing that the Bugatti cars have always been renowned for is its high-performance fast automobiles. This did not change even though its management changed over the years, its ambition to produce performance cars has not died. They took this to another level after they produced the Bugatti Veyron and the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport.
Needless to say that the Galibier is going to be exclusive and expensive with the W16 engine with its dual-clutch gearbox from the Veyron the car will definitely be worth looking at. The Galibier will also be seen in a hybrid version.
The Galibier Concept was unveiled in 2009 and was described as the ‘most exclusive, elegant and powerful four-door automobile in the world’. The only difference that the Galibier has over the Veyron (except of course the design) is that it has two superchargers instead of the four turbochargers in the Veyron.
The project is still in its early stages, Volkswagen hopes to produce ten times the number of Veyrons it produces annually with an approximate figure of 3000. As the car is still taking shape, no official word of the launch and the pricing is yet to be heard from the German engineers.
