So refreshing to see a CEO of a big car company like Bugatti showing his appreciation for the work Christian von Koenigsegg is doing, and Gordon Murray with the T50. Mate just seems like a really nice, genuine guy.
A few years ago I was at The Quail during Monterey Car Week and I was at the Bugatti booth. I turn around and see Mate sitting alone. I walk over and introduce myself, and we end up having a 10 minute conversation about cars in general. He is so nice and and down to earth. We are the same age and he makes me proud to represent my generation taking over the auto industry.
For sure. He may have gotten famous with his electric cars but i feel like he really gets car people and appreciates things that are mechanical and analog. Not like that other guy who just loves putting down gasoline engines and always just brags 0-100 times like thats the only thing car people cares about lol
@@briankim6148that other guy sees cars as something that should just take you from point A to B , which is correct for over 90% of the population except so called petrolheads. He has better things to talk about like A.I robots, or Rocket Engineering.
Dear lord, the replies to your simple date error…people are unkind in their corrections. How about the Veyron, the car that brought Bugatti back? 2005…19 years ago!
Sensational CEO! During the interview, he repeatedly emphasised the contribution of the whole team and the work of the many people responsible for the various elements of the car. At the same time, he never even once attributed success to himself, always the whole team. People with such an approach to managing people can create a great atmosphere that stimulates creativity and provides incredible working comfort, ultimately leading to spectacular results.
Normal, il sais très bien qu’il a nullement rien apporté a ce projet, c’est un cancre, l’Union européenne lui a donné des millions pour racheter bugatti c’est tout.
Over the last 15 years, I have followed Mate's journey from the EV homebuilder forums where as a student he showed his CAD drawings for his garage built BMW328 to the formation of RIMAC...and now to CEO of BUGATTI!!! This makes me happy in a way that I can't explain.
This is the first interview of Mate Rimac I've seen... I now get why they pulled in the "electric car guy" to head up Bugatti. Such a refreshing change to have a CEO who is actually passionate about his work like back in the old days.
@@regulus6936 did you watch the video? all the controls and the dials are analogue, obviously it isn't possible to make a road legal car without electronics now.
The fact that Mate said that it was wrong for Bugatti to go all electric really shows how much of a car guy he really is and likes both electric and ICE. The car community could take some notes from him liking both.
it's because he's not Italian or American. He also had come from a ground-up background. It's good to be prideful but if that's all you are, then you're worth nothing. You gotta be able to back up that pride. Mate is humble because he's not at a stage where he answers to people but he only answers to himself and people buy it. Others are enslaved to their investors' pockets.
I love how Mate Rimac speaks about his competitors with nothing but respect and adoration (Starting @ 20:41). They all make cars in the same space but there are different philosophies among them, it's so nice to hear respect and admiration, opposed to hostility in todays world.
I have to say when I heard mate was going to be in control of the next bugatti, I feared for the brand. But he has completely understood it and pushed it in just the right direction. The tourbillon is a masterpiece. Fascinating, innovative but also a homage to the type 35 in the nose, all at the same time. Amazing. Well done mate.
Bugatti X Rimac has to be the best motoring combo in years. Hands down to Matte Rimac for keeping Bugatti’s iconic 16-cylinder engine and creating a marvel of a machine. The Tourbillon is a work of art.
@@MNchees They both (Koeningsegg and Rimac) share passion for cars. They have highly vertically integrated manufacturing in their cars (they self make most of their cars). But in this case with Bugatti they went to the Aston Martin philosophy with the Valkyrie: define the critical elements of the car architecture and then order each non self made component to the best manufacturers in the market.
I have never been really that interested in Bugatti's but this thing is a work of art. Just look at the beautiful swiss made analog watch instrument cluster. Good job Mate, a chefs kiss to that. And its already one of the fastest cars in the world with a 1000hp naturally aspirated v16... imagine if someone put a pair of turbos on top off that. 🤯
I wouldn't thought I would say it but that might be my favorite Bugatti to date. It looks phenomenal, has a fantastic dash. Incredible performance all around. Have the "Emotion" V16 Engine.
That is BEAUTIFUL. They say it's narrower than Chiron but that front view looks WAY wider and it makes it more muscular and O.M.G than rear diffuser...!!!
A V16 is a HUGE MIDDLE FINGER to the electric car non-sense! Besides this, the car is an absolute MASTERPIECE and I don't use this word very often! BIG BIG RESPECT TO MATE! He is now a legend!

Didnt even realise the video was 30 minutes 🤯 the way he explained everything had me captivated the whole time lol. Also never ever been excited for a bugatti before. Truly an art and engineering marvel
This was beyond my expectations.. I was hesitant it would just be a Rimac in disguise. This is one of the most beautiful cars ever created, this colour spec is also phenomenal and elegant
Great to see a visionary petrolhead who gives credit to his team and respects his competitors. When he said that only Koenigsegg is more crazy than him - that’s when my respect turned into admiration. The mechanic works of art that Rimac, Murray and Koenigsegg have created inspire me to do the same in my field. That’s why we need these extraordinary marvels of engineering. Even if only a lucky few can experience them. Thanks, Mate and the team!
@@rt_zentrue, you never hear car companies acknowledge competitors let alone praise them, you can tell Mate loves cars in general and his passion shows in what he delivered
This is such a masterpiece. A true no-compromises car. Ferdinand Piëch would be so proud of how Mate Rimac took on his Bugatti reborn with the Veyron and brought it to a completely new level again. In other news, Chiron owners are reported to be "quite sad".
Mate is a hero of mine: he’s a true car guy irrespective of what propulsion method’s used. Hearing his explanation of the Tourbillon is almost as exciting as the car itself. WOW, I really need to win the lotto soon 🥵
When you thought Elon Musk opened to the public as a genius engineer with charisma and good ideas.... this guy comes outta nowhere (Rimac allowing) and he glows, taking it to the next level. Natural behaviour person, fluent speaker, charismatic, genius.... Bugatti just took the company to the next level. I bet croatians are very proud of their guy.
Some are proud but some are sour since his father was in politics and managed to steal tens of millions of euros so that his son gets to play with cars. I mean at least the kid does something positive with it and doesnt blow his father money stolen from taxpayers on hookers and cocaine.
@@thisisnotreal01234 as a non croatian I never knew about these details. There's always more and nothing is ever only black or white.... thank you for feedback and info
@@Broncstale Yeah, skeletons are present in everyones closet. He still achieved a lot and has a potential to achieve even more. But this is a lesson for everyone. Don't be evil, because if you take from another it will always come back and bite you in the ass.
When a car enthusiast is put in charge. Just wow. 1st Bugatti I have ever been impressed by. Bang on for going NA with the ICE, it will have some emotion when it screams. What a timeless interior, like a Pagani.
@@steven_taylor_ To end up just like everyone else? Pretty sad to think that both AM and "Bugatti" couldn't/didn't want to make their own engine (Murray didn't have the resources, so they are excused).
@@regulus6936 I'm not sure if you realize how long it takes to design an engine from the ground up. Unless you're a specialist like Cosworth, it can take a decade. Even then, it basically took them 4+ years. The easy thing would be to just stuff the W16 in there and add electric motors, or borrow a V12//V10 from Lambo, but they did it the hard way. NA V16... unparalleled.
@@regulus6936 Everyone else? If the engine has more emotional value nobody would remember if it's similar to someone else's engine. AM has their own V12 and Bugatti definitely could have made a new engine but Cosworth is the real deal right now for such high revving NA engines.
@@regulus6936 as he said in the video, Bugatti isnt focussed on 100% originality like Koenigsegg for example, they are using brembo brakes because they are the best and have gone to cosworth for an engine for the very same reason
Mate is going be a legend in this industry when its all done. Its incredible how the Tourbillon's design immediately makes the Chiron look outdated. Its such a leap forward.
@@LaSombraaI’m stunned that you say “titan” and go straight to Horacio completely bypassing Gordon Murray, Adrian Newey and Colin Chapman (sorry to the other titans I’ve not mentioned), this may be a controversial opinion but I see Horacio as more of a jewellery designer
I feel like we've gone back in time when I see Mate presenting a new product like this. Being someone that's started his own car company and now heading up one of the greatest brands in the world it shows through amount of passion and enthusiasm that he exudes. He is on a level that no one besides a car creator could be. VW Group nailed it when they brought him on board, in my humble opinion. You can see he really understands every aspect of car design and engineering and and it's satisfying to watch somebody present a car with so much pride and joy and enthusiasm. It's as if we're watching someone like Bugatti himself presenting the car himself, this car has got every part of him in it and I can only hope that based on his enthusiasm and his energy, that he's an absolute pleasure to work, because he really represents all departments with respect and pride. Its not scripted because he knows his shit. It's a joy to watch.
i must say I‘ve really enjoyed listening to Mr Rimac, he seems like a very very intelligent and passionate person, taking his time to explain every last detail in great extent and you can just tell how proud he is of what’s been created it is awesome to see how well endowed he is at his young age
They've got nothing to fear, Pagani has its own unique style that works for them and only for them. I have seen some irl and they're just magnificient, videos and photos cannot hope to compare. I have also seen some pretty good imitations, let's say, but they didn't hold up at all. They're at a level where they can get beaten only of theylose Horacio and stop pushing the envelope.
Thank you.... Thank you for the NA V16, Thank you for keeping the weight so low, thank you for adding in those beautiful titanium and aluminium parts and most importantly thank you for getting rid of the blasted infotainment screens. Hopefully more companies see this and switch back to buttons and dials.
@@AzathothsAlarmClock it's a large engine,1000hp V16 and a relatively large hybrid system with decent range ( much larger than the SF90 296 Artura systems) so yes the weight is low relative to all the systems it's carrying.... Also Remacs electric cars are quite heavy if I remember correctly.
What an ultra amazing job Rimac did to Bugatti..... I lost my mind..... Every peace is a miracle on that car...... I don't find a tiny thing that I don't like........ First time I feel so impressed since EB110 in Athens Motorshow 1994. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Rimac has a true respect for Bugatti. He’s intelligent, he can use the well known name and image, as a platform to grow the company and his company’s image. He will push his company’s development renown to a new level. You can tell he likes Bugatti and wanted to respect the history and name, he understands the importance. I’m glad he took possession of the company. Ensuring its future.
What a time to be alive An 8300cc V16 that makes 1000ps and revs to 9000rpm, and the interior is gorgeous, the steering wheel is awesome, the analog gouges are perfect, what a Masterpiece Rimac+Bugatti+Cosworth+Czinger = one amazing thing Congratulations Rimac/Bugatti.
In a world were even hyper cars have become a commodity, the Bugatti Tourbillon recreates the exclusive spirit of supercars from the 60s and 70s. The attention to each and every detail is absolutely mind boggling. When we are good at what we do we succeed, however in order to shine we need passion, and Mr. Rimac represents the embodiment of passion.
Mate I really have to congratulate you. This interview was not only about marketing a new entry, but a real interview between 2 car obsessed people. What a passion you have and really achieved such a difficult task like outdone a car lineage like the ones in Bugatti.
Total masterpiece 👌🏻 Really have become a fan of Mate & whole bugatti team. 3 things that catched my very attention : 1. The mechanical watch like meter console 2. The way the infotainment screen comes out if needed 3. The way the wiper is positioned at the center of the windcreen to match the whole bodyline of the car Just phenomenal 👌🏻 What an art 💯
From the sounds of it the previous administration would have done Bugatti a huge disservice. Mate has pushed them in an incredible direction. I have huge respect for the guy. He has achieved amazing things!
I love that Bugatti combines timeless beauty with really radical tech. Just thinking that the same team could possibly create some really hardcore machines for regular people and maybe even the planet as a whole. Maybe I'm gushing... but I think this team has something special going on internally.
The gauge cluster is the best one I’ve ever seen in a car, the way the steering wheel moves, the 8.3 n/an engine with an electric power train is awesome!! That, is class if I’ve ever seen it
Is cool to see how Mate Rimac recognizes the koenigsegg's work (his direct competitor) without the dumb censorship that most CEOs aply when talking about their brands 20:48
Just the thought of having a 16 cylinder that can rev like a Honda and sound way better than a ferrari is truly amazing and the fact that it is naturally aspirated, makes it more exciting for the future of that engine and the brand cause what if they slap 2 turbos on it I wonder how much powerful it would be. Great respect to Mate Rimac for being such gentleman and not choosing to go full electric with the brand that has always been known to be one of a kind yet elegant on their own rights.
Very humble of Mate, he always recognises the efforts of his colleagues which i am sure have put a lot of efforts into delivering the perfectly made Tourbillon.
My man's just living every petrol head's dream: buying Bugatti and chatting up Cosworth to make a bloody V16 (!!!) in order to produce this absolute masterpiece. Well done, Mate, well done! I just LOVE his enthusiasm and I just believe him being involved in every little step of the whole process. Could listen to him talk about it all damn day!
Mate and his team did just an amazing job, this is Bugatti as it should be - art, craftmanship, and mechanical engineering at its highest. Just awesome what they did with Tourbillon
Interesting: Mate Rimac is a pioneer in high-speed electric sports cars. He is now the director of Bugatti, a brand that grew up with huge gasoline engines.
One thing I like about Mate Rimac is that he's a car guy and not an electric everything obsessed. He understands the traits and heritage of Bugatti, glad to see they still working on Combustion Engines, pushing forward with this V16.
I recently watched MKBHD's interview with Tim Cook, and then soon after Louis Rossman's video calling out all of the nonsense. Then I come to another video between an influencer and a CEO, except this time questions are asked, and questions are answered. The CEO's enthusiasm comes through the screen to the point where influencer whose job it is to talk has to cut him off sometimes. He has the guts to call one of the best looking design choices I've seen in years a, "party trick," and constantly names specific people or groups of people where credit is due. Hats off to you, Mate Rimac. You are the CEO I hope to one day be. P.S. Oh yeah, the car is amazing. Love both ICE and electric, and this car has the best of both, to no-one's surprise.
I usually yawn at each release of yet another irrelevent hypercar. But this... is probably the most exciting and significant car this century. A landmark. Bravo Mate !
Bugatti definitely does make insane straight line speed demons, would be cool to see them make one that could maybe not go as gast in a line but actual handle a little bit
Reminiscent of high-grade mechanical watches as well as the interiors of Paganis. Not in my budget this year but impressive none the less and definitely something to contemplate.
So, what do you think of the Chiron’s successor?
Yes!
HAVE to say it,,,the nose is ugly.
I APPROVE! I'll take four thanks
eat the rich
They definitely stepped it up several notches. But of course we’d expect nothing less from Bugatti. Can’t wait to see it out on the track!
Having the hour needle show RPMs and the minute needle show speed is one of the best ideas they could have
Is the dash digital or an actual analog movement?

So refreshing to see a CEO of a big car company like Bugatti showing his appreciation for the work Christian von Koenigsegg is doing, and Gordon Murray with the T50. Mate just seems like a really nice, genuine guy.
He is not just CEO. He is owner of the company. Rimac owns Bugatti.
It’s because he started out like koenigsegg and pagani, built from scratch with a dream, and you can tell

Its the exact same design , idk why this guy got offended.
@@MrTheErnie
Citroen is also supercool on its own right. At least it continuously existed in the past 120 yrs
@@anemeth9281Unlike Bugatti who had to be revived several times in its history.
This was beyond my expectations.. I was hesitant it would just be a Rimac in disguise. This is one of the most beautiful cars ever created, this colour spec is also phenomenal and elegant
Its how a Bugatti shoudl be - both power and style in equal measure. Finally they have it again.
Mate gets it. He understands it. he's one of us, just with the power of Bugatti. Phenomenal. So refreshing to hear and see.
Great to see a visionary petrolhead who gives credit to his team and respects his competitors. When he said that only Koenigsegg is more crazy than him - that’s when my respect turned into admiration.
The mechanic works of art that Rimac, Murray and Koenigsegg have created inspire me to do the same in my field. That’s why we need these extraordinary marvels of engineering. Even if only a lucky few can experience them. Thanks, Mate and the team!
Love how Mate is truly passionate and excited about his new product. You can’t fake that. It’s a beautiful piece.
Yep, and him talking about Cosworth and Koenigsegg in such a tone of admiration really drives his passion home
@@rt_zentrue, you never hear car companies acknowledge competitors let alone praise them, you can tell Mate loves cars in general and his passion shows in what he delivered
@@AbeYousef Yep, he wants to see progress, regardless of who achieves it
I had smile on my face during the entire video. It’s clear when you get enthusiastic CEO you get the best out of it.
This is such a masterpiece. A true no-compromises car. Ferdinand Piëch would be so proud of how Mate Rimac took on his Bugatti reborn with the Veyron and brought it to a completely new level again.
In other news, Chiron owners are reported to be "quite sad".
The last part of your coment 😂
Mate is a hero of mine: he’s a true car guy irrespective of what propulsion method’s used. Hearing his explanation of the Tourbillon is almost as exciting as the car itself. WOW, I really need to win the lotto soon 🥵
When you thought Elon Musk opened to the public as a genius engineer with charisma and good ideas.... this guy comes outta nowhere (Rimac allowing) and he glows, taking it to the next level.
Natural behaviour person, fluent speaker, charismatic, genius.... Bugatti just took the company to the next level.
I bet croatians are very proud of their guy.
Some are proud but some are sour since his father was in politics and managed to steal tens of millions of euros so that his son gets to play with cars.
I mean at least the kid does something positive with it and doesnt blow his father money stolen from taxpayers on hookers and cocaine.
@@thisisnotreal01234 as a non croatian I never knew about these details. There's always more and nothing is ever only black or white.... thank you for feedback and info
@@Broncstale Yeah, skeletons are present in everyones closet. He still achieved a lot and has a potential to achieve even more. But this is a lesson for everyone. Don't be evil, because if you take from another it will always come back and bite you in the ass.
Elon Musk has charisma ??
He hides that very well!
When a car enthusiast is put in charge. Just wow. 1st Bugatti I have ever been impressed by. Bang on for going NA with the ICE, it will have some emotion when it screams. What a timeless interior, like a Pagani.
Never been that big of a fan of either the Chiron or the Veyron, but this thing looks absolutely amazing.
Wow
Same, switching to a naturally aspirated engine is just bonkers and I love it.
Another hypercar with a magnificent Cosworth engine, they've had a good few years!
Pagani missed a trick by not using a Cosworth NA V12 for the Utopia. They should have an made agreement with Cosworth instead of AMG.
@@steven_taylor_ To end up just like everyone else? Pretty sad to think that both AM and "Bugatti" couldn't/didn't want to make their own engine (Murray didn't have the resources, so they are excused).
@@regulus6936 I'm not sure if you realize how long it takes to design an engine from the ground up. Unless you're a specialist like Cosworth, it can take a decade. Even then, it basically took them 4+ years. The easy thing would be to just stuff the W16 in there and add electric motors, or borrow a V12//V10 from Lambo, but they did it the hard way. NA V16... unparalleled.
@@regulus6936 Everyone else? If the engine has more emotional value nobody would remember if it's similar to someone else's engine. AM has their own V12 and Bugatti definitely could have made a new engine but Cosworth is the real deal right now for such high revving NA engines.
@@regulus6936 as he said in the video, Bugatti isnt focussed on 100% originality like Koenigsegg for example, they are using brembo brakes because they are the best and have gone to cosworth for an engine for the very same reason
props to Mate for really incapsulating Bugatti's brand DnA. This car is spectacular, a true beauty and beast.
Mate is going be a legend in this industry when its all done.
Its incredible how the Tourbillon's design immediately makes the Chiron look outdated. Its such a leap forward.
For sure. Definitely working his way up the ladder to stand with titans like Horacio
@@LaSombraaI’m stunned that you say “titan” and go straight to Horacio completely bypassing Gordon Murray, Adrian Newey and Colin Chapman (sorry to the other titans I’ve not mentioned), this may be a controversial opinion but I see Horacio as more of a jewellery designer
I feel like we've gone back in time when I see Mate presenting a new product like this. Being someone that's started his own car company and now heading up one of the greatest brands in the world it shows through amount of passion and enthusiasm that he exudes. He is on a level that no one besides a car creator could be. VW Group nailed it when they brought him on board, in my humble opinion.
You can see he really understands every aspect of car design and engineering and and it's satisfying to watch somebody present a car with so much pride and joy and enthusiasm.
It's as if we're watching someone like Bugatti himself presenting the car himself, this car has got every part of him in it and I can only hope that based on his enthusiasm and his energy, that he's an absolute pleasure to work, because he really represents all departments with respect and pride. Its not scripted because he knows his shit. It's a joy to watch.
Love Mate, that man is living his dream right now. His passion just pours out of him when he talks.
i must say I‘ve really enjoyed listening to Mr Rimac, he seems like a very very intelligent and passionate person, taking his time to explain every last detail in great extent and you can just tell how proud he is of what’s been created it is awesome to see how well endowed he is at his young age
Gotta admit I was never a huge fan of Bugatti but this Mate is extremely pleasant as a brand representative, what a fantastic car
Horacio Pagani - “Oh crap, now Bugatti are making gorgeous interiors as well”.
lol why, they are legit just copying him at this point.
Chiron was great to but this is art
@@Kinskiii "Art" doesn't mean "better". They are a different take of the Chiron ones, which were a modernization of those on the original Veyron.
They've got nothing to fear, Pagani has its own unique style that works for them and only for them. I have seen some irl and they're just magnificient, videos and photos cannot hope to compare. I have also seen some pretty good imitations, let's say, but they didn't hold up at all.
They're at a level where they can get beaten only of theylose Horacio and stop pushing the envelope.
More like: "Finally, someone who understands my taste for car interior..."
I love how Mate always uses metric units and English goes brrrrrrrr
As he should, the metric system is the best in the world and should be adapted everywhere for ease of use
Americans should learn metric!
@@LaurensiusAdiKun Trying rn and uhhhhh doing decent-ish
@@myusername3689 If you can count to 10, you know metric. It's really simple, that's the beauty of it.
@@LaurensiusAdiKun We have and wait for the knuckle draggers in our ranks (Congress) to join to make it official.
Thank you.... Thank you for the NA V16, Thank you for keeping the weight so low, thank you for adding in those beautiful titanium and aluminium parts and most importantly thank you for getting rid of the blasted infotainment screens. Hopefully more companies see this and switch back to buttons and dials.
@@AzathothsAlarmClock it's a large engine,1000hp V16 and a relatively large hybrid system with decent range ( much larger than the SF90 296 Artura systems) so yes the weight is low relative to all the systems it's carrying.... Also
Remacs electric cars are quite heavy if I remember correctly.
That gauge cluster is a work of pure mechanical art.
He really added the Croatian beauty, Bugatti finally has the looks and sound to show for it
What an ultra amazing job Rimac did to Bugatti..... I lost my mind..... Every peace is a miracle on that car...... I don't find a tiny thing that I don't like........ First time I feel so impressed since EB110 in Athens Motorshow 1994. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Rimac has a true respect for Bugatti. He’s intelligent, he can use the well known name and image, as a platform to grow the company and his company’s image. He will push his company’s development renown to a new level. You can tell he likes Bugatti and wanted to respect the history and name, he understands the importance. I’m glad he took possession of the company. Ensuring its future.
They are all like a big Family!Everybody works for different brands!Rimac helps Porsche for example!
What a time to be alive
An 8300cc V16 that makes 1000ps and revs to 9000rpm, and the interior is gorgeous, the steering wheel is awesome, the analog gouges are perfect, what a Masterpiece
Rimac+Bugatti+Cosworth+Czinger
= one amazing thing
Congratulations Rimac/Bugatti.
It's amazing to see how Rimac has changed the way we normally see hypercars. Thank God is looking promising. Well done Bugatti👊💨🏁
In a world were even hyper cars have become a commodity, the Bugatti Tourbillon recreates the exclusive spirit of supercars from the 60s and 70s. The attention to each and every detail is absolutely mind boggling. When we are good at what we do we succeed, however in order to shine we need passion, and Mr. Rimac represents the embodiment of passion.
Mate I really have to congratulate you. This interview was not only about marketing a new entry, but a real interview between 2 car obsessed people. What a passion you have and really achieved such a difficult task like outdone a car lineage like the ones in Bugatti.
Rimac is a car guy through and through. He's produced something great here ... just beautiful!!
I was worried Mate would just put a Bugatti skin on the rimac. This is impressive! Gained a lot of respect for him.
The name given to this hypercar, Tourbillon, comes from mechanical watches. I'm blown away by the engineering of this new Bugatti Hypercar 🎉
Outstanding craftsmanship. Ettore would be amazed and proud.
Total masterpiece 👌🏻
Really have become a fan of Mate & whole bugatti team.
3 things that catched my very attention :
1. The mechanical watch like meter console
2. The way the infotainment screen comes out if needed
3. The way the wiper is positioned at the center of the windcreen to match the whole bodyline of the car
Just phenomenal 👌🏻 What an art 💯
It’s such a pleasure listening to Mate speak about his creation. His enthusiasm and passion really comes through.
From the sounds of it the previous administration would have done Bugatti a huge disservice. Mate has pushed them in an incredible direction. I have huge respect for the guy. He has achieved amazing things!
I love that Bugatti combines timeless beauty with really radical tech. Just thinking that the same team could possibly create some really hardcore machines for regular people and maybe even the planet as a whole. Maybe I'm gushing... but I think this team has something special going on internally.
Matē Rimac and Christian von Koenigsegg are the two most incredible car guys. Their amazing knowledge and attention to detail blow my mind 😮
Rest easy Ettore, your legacy's in safe hands.
Love this guy, much respect to him. Love to see a real engineer instead of a fake polished salesman
The gauge cluster is the best one I’ve ever seen in a car, the way the steering wheel moves, the 8.3 n/an engine with an electric power train is awesome!! That, is class if I’ve ever seen it
I don’t understand anything but nodding my head and smiling at the same time.😂.
So proud to be working for the company that will be making the engine valve springs for this!!!
Is cool to see how Mate Rimac recognizes the koenigsegg's work (his direct competitor) without the dumb censorship that most CEOs aply when talking about their brands 20:48
,,Like a citroen c4 picasso"" THAT LINE KILLED ME
Using the windshield wiper as a continuation of the classic Bugatti rivetted spine is such an inspired idea. Genius.
Yes inspired frm bugatti sur bassur
Literally every tuned Golf GTI in Germany had that in the 90's 😂
Just the thought of having a 16 cylinder that can rev like a Honda and sound way better than a ferrari is truly amazing and the fact that it is naturally aspirated, makes it more exciting for the future of that engine and the brand cause what if they slap 2 turbos on it I wonder how much powerful it would be. Great respect to Mate Rimac for being such gentleman and not choosing to go full electric with the brand that has always been known to be one of a kind yet elegant on their own rights.
cant believe the CEO of this kind of a company is such a chill and friendly guy.
This is already my car of the decade. Just incredible stuff. The way Mate talks about this makes me know he was absolutely the right man for the job.
Very humble of Mate, he always recognises the efforts of his colleagues which i am sure have put a lot of efforts into delivering the perfectly made Tourbillon.
My man's just living every petrol head's dream: buying Bugatti and chatting up Cosworth to make a bloody V16 (!!!) in order to produce this absolute masterpiece. Well done, Mate, well done! I just LOVE his enthusiasm and I just believe him being involved in every little step of the whole process. Could listen to him talk about it all damn day!
Sickest car to date. The tourbillon dials on the steering wheel are insane looking.
The CEO drawing inspiration from luxury timepieces and turning to his customers for feedback is brilliant. User and market research is so important!
Mate and his team did just an amazing job, this is Bugatti as it should be - art, craftmanship, and mechanical engineering at its highest. Just awesome what they did with Tourbillon
Citroen must be really happy about that steering😂
Not only a hypercar but also a luxurious high-end masterpiece 🔥its literally piece of art
For that price should expect nothing less, lol.
Interesting: Mate Rimac is a pioneer in high-speed electric sports cars. He is now the director of Bugatti, a brand that grew up with huge gasoline engines.
Their best looking car since the Veyron.
I like smooth/rounded flowing lines a lot more on a Bugatti than a more aggressive, angular look.
He was handed the keys to a legendary brand and I think he is doing great. Can't wait to hear it run.
One thing I like about Mate Rimac is that he's a car guy and not an electric everything obsessed. He understands the traits and heritage of Bugatti, glad to see they still working on Combustion Engines, pushing forward with this V16.
I love how mate is so cool... and not stiff on talking about the competition
I recently watched MKBHD's interview with Tim Cook, and then soon after Louis Rossman's video calling out all of the nonsense.
Then I come to another video between an influencer and a CEO, except this time questions are asked, and questions are answered. The CEO's enthusiasm comes through the screen to the point where influencer whose job it is to talk has to cut him off sometimes. He has the guts to call one of the best looking design choices I've seen in years a, "party trick," and constantly names specific people or groups of people where credit is due.
Hats off to you, Mate Rimac. You are the CEO I hope to one day be.
P.S. Oh yeah, the car is amazing. Love both ICE and electric, and this car has the best of both, to no-one's surprise.
I am happy that new model is here, old chiron model will be more affordable for average people now..
lol yeah will be my next car after my Toyota gives up
Bruh
I usually yawn at each release of yet another irrelevent hypercar.
But this... is probably the most exciting and significant car this century. A landmark. Bravo Mate !
easily the most enthusiast driven designed hypercar that's come out since the P1. Aggressive but gorgeous
Porsche, Aston Martin, Ferrari pay attention to the gauge cluster! If we are paying over 125k+ for your cars we don't want some cheap ass screen.
Stupid comment
Hmmn.. The price difference is quite considerable to say the least.
@@sonicstep I'm not saying copy this obviously.
@@Random415510yes you was. 😂.
Tht intro was amazing..tht gauge cluster is a work of art
Bugatti definitely does make insane straight line speed demons, would be cool to see them make one that could maybe not go as gast in a line but actual handle a little bit
Reminiscent of high-grade mechanical watches as well as the interiors of Paganis.
Not in my budget this year but impressive none the less and definitely something to contemplate.
