    Bugatti is bringing a V16 engine to their lineup, with more details to be released later in 2024. The Bugatti Chiron successor will sport a V16 hybrid powertrain, with rumors that it's a Cosworth 8.3L naturally aspirated V16, producing 1,000 horsepower and revving to 9,000 RPM. If the rumors are to be believed, it will also be paired with three 250kW electric motors, for a potent AWD system with blistering acceleration.
    But, who cares about rumors, right? What are the facts? In this video, we'll dive into the images shared by Bugatti, to get a deeper understanding of the engineering behind this V16 combustion engine. We'll talk torque curves, firing intervals, firing order, V-angles, crossplane vs flatplane, balance, and see how the rumors hold up to a little math.

    The crank and camshaft harmonics would be an interesting thing to see as well. An engine that long is sure to pose some challenges with torsional vibration and I'd love to see what they did.
    Also, exhaust manifold pics please. Eliminating blowdown interference and meeting emissions don't typically happen at the same time on crossplane V8s, so it will be cool to see how they did it (I mean, they could use 8 cat converters on cylinder pairs with a 270 degree firing separation, but that would be the easy way).

    That's pretty sweet. I have wanted to build a paired V8 V16 out of Ford 460s for a while now, just something about a 15L V16 that's appealing. It's interesting that they are doing this this way, my first choice plan was to run the front one in standard rotation but the rear one in reverse rotation, butted together, with the power going aft via a shaft slung underneath from the flywheel end.
    Hopefully they aren't going to have too much of an issue with crankshaft flex in that, or with block shifting.

    In 1938, Cadillac completely re-engineered the V-16, brought out a flathead design on a 135-degree plan. It was nearly an opposed 16, gave much lower silhouette, put most accessories on top. Two downright carbs helped give 185 hp. Only 514 L-head V16s were sold. A V-12 wasn't made during this time, and Cadillac dropped this 431-inch V-16 completely by end of 1940.

      @@EngineeringExplained I had posted a follow-up, but it contained a link to another comment on Facebook, which might be why UA-cam mods (or even you) deleted it.
      Anyway, the gist of it was that Mate Rimac seems to be very stingy with responding to comments on his posts, and the response I had linked was one confirming the engine is N/A with a simple "Yep." to one of the commenters in an earlier post Rimac had made. The only other direct response he gave to commenters about any of this was along the lines of "all shall be revealed in due time".
      This all leads me to believe that the commenter you pointed out (Heinz Schenk) was onto something, and the snarky sarcastic handwave was probably a misdirection attempt. I can't be sure about the electric engine(s) power figure(s), but I do think you're just about correct; something tells me Bugatti-Rimac didn't go through the trouble of designing such an elaborate ICE powertrain just to have it play second fiddle to the electric subsystem - I doubt they'd want it overshadowed by the electric motors.
      @randomnik70 :: I doubt Jason overestimated the engine power, given how simple the intake manifolds and the valvetrain look; to get much more efficiency without traditional forced induction, they'd have to have an elaborate variable valve timing and duration system with some huge valves/ports and also probably rammed air (scooped from the front and inducted into the manifolds), as what Jason proposes is already pushing it in terms of volumetric efficiency.
