When it comes to Bugatti\u2019s upcoming Tourbillon supercar, there is much to get excited about: V-16 engine, drool-inducing styling, 276-mph top speed, $4.3-million price tag. But the cabin is where a lucky few will interact with this amazing machine, and believe you us, it\u2019s worth its own individual flip-out. It\u2019s nicer, even, than the cabin of the Chiron it replaces. Why don\u2019t you open the scissor door, slip behind the wheel, and soak it all in?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Clockwork Tourbillon<\/h2>\n

As you settle behind the wheel, you\u2019ll find yourself surrounded by fine leather (doesn\u2019t it smell wonderful?), carbon fiber, metal, and a hundred elaborate details to catch your eye. Simple though the cabin is, at first glance, it\u2019s a bit overwhelming. \u201cTourbillon\u201d is a type of intricate wristwatch mechanism, and that\u2019s the theme: intricate details and clockwork precision.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s wristwatch, not smartwatch, and do you notice what you don’t<\/em> see? Yep, no screen. There is one, but it\u2019s hidden away in the center stack, only to be deployed when needed. \u201cScreens date an interior,\u201d Bugatti design director Frank Heyl said, and he\u2019s right. After all, which would you rather have, an antique wristwatch or an antique laptop?<\/p>\n

Everything Comes to You\u00a0<\/h2>\n

You\u2019re looking for the seat adjustment controls, aren\u2019t you? Sorry, Charlie, there aren\u2019t any. The seat is fixed to the floor; it\u2019s the pedals and steering column that move. This isn\u2019t some cheap-ass half-million-dollar Rolls-Royce, my friend; for $4 million, the mountain comes to you.<\/p>\n

As you adjust the steering wheel, give it a twitch, and you\u2019ll see one of the Tourbillon\u2019s coolest details: The wheel rotates around the steering column. Ettore Bugatti\u2019s magic initials on the hub always stay right-side up. What\u2019s that? Why yes, that\u2019s right, the 1958 Edsel did have the same feature, but that\u2019s not something we talk about in polite (or Bugatti\u2019s) company.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Instead, have a look at the gauge pod attached to the top of the column. All those little gear wheels aren\u2019t just there for show; they move as the gauges rotate, and they\u2019re milled to a precision that ensures instant response, which is no mean feat given the rev-happy V-16 behind you and how fast it\u2019ll twist that speedometer. Of course, at the speeds this baby can generate, you won\u2019t want to stare at the gauges any more than you have to. Nor will you want to take your hands off the wheel, which is why the drive-mode and hybrid control dials are on the column, as well.<\/p>\n

Instant Familiarization<\/h2>\n

But for now, while we\u2019re still stationary, take in that see-through center stack, detailed with sapphire glass. Here you are, with all of two minutes\u2019 time behind the Tourbillon\u2019s wheel, and you can figure out all the controls, can\u2019t you? Top dial for stereo, climate control below that, chassis and door controls, and the parking brake. Who says modern high-end cars need to be complex? The Tourbillon is as straightforward as that analog watch on your wrist.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Look at the pedal box. Accelerator, brake, footrest; small, simple, elegant, and beautiful. That\u2019s what this kind of money gets you\u2014attention to detail in the most unlikely places.<\/p>\n

Not that the Tourbillon\u2019s cabin is a throwback; not at all. Look over your shoulder at that lovely light bar that divides the interior. It\u2019s a modern-day homage to the dorsal fin of the classic Type 57S Atlantic. It\u2019s also a subtle reminder that there are drivers and there are passengers, and there is a divide. You\u2019re the driver, and this is your domain.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Enjoy It While You Can<\/h2>\n

Take it all in now, because once you press that starter button, the gods will start screaming in your ear, and sound and speed will be all you know. All your concentration will be on guiding this beautiful bullet down the road.<\/p>\n

Cars are, of course, meant to be driven, but Bugattis have always been more than just cars. They are rolling sculptures and a treat for the senses. If you\u2019re one of the 250 or so people fortunate enough to own a Tourbillon, of course you\u2019ll want to drive it. But if you spend just as much time here, sitting quietly behind the wheel and basking in the beauty of this exquisite cabin, we won\u2019t blame you at all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
