When you are arguably the best soccer player in the world and have a lot of money, you cannot simply buy a Hellcat and call it okay. Since Cristiano Ronaldo recently purchased a Bugatti La Voiture Noire, it appears that this is indeed the case.
With a price tag of roughly $18.9 mιllιon, it is the most expensive new car ever produced. Ronaldo was the main candidate mentioned in rumors about potential buyers, and it turned out that he did buy it.
Yes, we realize that’s an absurd sum of money, but the 1,500-horsepower hypercar is still a very spectacular vehicle. Every La Voiture Noire is built by Bugatti using a coachbuilding methodology based on the Chiron. The fact that there is just one raises the price of a car significantly, as we frequently point out.
Perhaps Ronaldo is actually afraid that he will show up at a party and discover that another man has just pulled up in the same car as him. Being in such awkward circumstance as such a renowned athlete must keep him up at night. And no, we have no sympathy for him whatsoever and don’t think he’s concerned.
To return to the car, numerous design cues make mention of the legendary Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic. The exposed central spine of the new car may stand out among these characteristics the most. We always like retro characteristics in modern cars because it’s important to keep the past in mind. And we like driving old cars.
This La Voiture Noire will never be mistaken for a conventional Chiron, as that would be a humiliating error. The front fascia of the one-of-a-kind hypercar is entirely unique, especially in terms of the headlamp arrangement.
The quad-turbo 16-cylinder engine has been modified to 1,500 horsepower, much like the Bugatti Chiron. The vehicle has six exhaust pipes, which serve to emphasize its distinctiveness even more. It seems that the French believe that an automobile’s speed or price will increase according to the number of tailpipes it has.
