specification
The Tourbillon is powered by a naturally aspirated 8.3 L V16 engine co-developed with Cosworth, combined with 3 electric motors, with 2 at the front axle and 1 at the rear. The engine produces 1,000 PS (735 kW; 986 hp) and 900 N⋅m (664 lb⋅ft) of torque, while the electric motors produce a combined 800 PS (588 kW; 789 hp), for a total of 1,800 PS (1,324 kW; 1,775 hp).Bugatti says that the choice to replace the quad turbocharger setup of the Chiron with a naturally aspirated engine was to make the experience "more emotional" and allow for higher rpms, with the V16 redlining at 9,000 rpm. The Tourbillon uses an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission mounted longitudinally at the back of the engine, in contrast to the Chiron where it was mounted in front. The battery is a 25 kWh unit mounted in front of the engine in the central tunnel, which allows for a full electric range of around 60 km (37 mi).
Multiple alternative engine options were considered for the Tourbillon, including a fully electric powertrain, as well as a naturally aspirated version of the outgoing W16 engine.
