Bugatti’s $5.8 million ride Bugatti presented its latest model as a world premiere in late summer. With the Divo, the French luxury brand has developed a super sports car tuned for agility, nimbleness and optimum handling performance on winding roads. It is powered by Bugatti’s iconic eight-litre W16 engine with a power output of 1,500 PS. The aerodynamics of the model have been intensively fine-tuned, and the suspension and chassis settings have been modified. As a result, the Divo is 77 pounds lighter and has 198 pounds more downforce than the standard Chiron. The series only consists of 40 vehicles. Upon the start of presentations to selected customers, the strictly limited small series, with a net unit price of $5.8 million, sold out immediately.
