The last W16-powered car to be produced from the Atelier, Bugatti Chiron Profilée has sold for an incredible price of 9,792,500 Euros at auction. This sale at the RM SOTHEBY’s auction which took place in Paris on February 1st makes the Chiron Profilée the most valuable new car ever sold at auction.
The auction of the Chiron Profilée is the last opportunity to buy a new Bugatti powered by the legendary W16 engine since all production Chiron models, the W16 Mistral, and the Bolide are completely sold out.

The sale of the Chiron Profilée was one of the most anticipated moments of the whole auction, with enormous global interest in the car, the Profilée attracted considerable attention at the auction among bidders and curious viewers who had visited to have a glimpse of this unique car. With numerous bidders in the room and on the telephones, there was a real sense of history being made, and we congratulate the new custodian of the Chiron Profilée on their extremely special acquisition.”
