The 2010 Bugatti C 16 Galibier
>> Sunday, April 11, 2010
Review from:http://www.topspeed.com/cars/bugatti/index21.html, told us the history of the 2010 Bugatti 16 C Galibier, below is the review:
This past March at the Geneva Motor Show, the Swedish super car company Keonigsegg revealed the NLV Quant electric sedan. Well now it is the exotic Italian coachbuilder Bugatti’s turn, and Ettore’s original brand has done quite an impressive job on the all new Bugatti 16 C Galibier concept that was unveiled this past weekend in Molsheim. According to the automaker the upcoming super car will become "the most exclusive, elegant, and powerful four door automobile in the world."
The Galibier’s design is based on the Bugatti Type 35, a model that also inspired the 1001 HP Bugatti Veyron super car. The 16 C concept features the traditional Bugatti radiator complimented by big round LED lit headlamps and the clamshell running the length of the vehicle which became synonymous with the brand identity under Jean Bugatti in the Type 57.
Under the bonnet, the 16 C concept can stand up to the almighty Veyron, becasue Bugatti has placed a 8.0 Liter 16 cylinder engine boosted with a two stage supercharging system, that features an ethanol mode. The Galiber was designed with smooth lines that will allow it to slipstream past the competition should it ever go into production. The concept also features a four wheel drive, a purpose built performance suspension and very exotic ceramic brakes to ensure that the 16 C Galiber can handle the speeds the pair of blowers up front are going to generate.
The interior of the 16 C Galiber concept reflects the pure and simple design of the exterior, because after all there is something beautiful about being basic. The dash been reduced to include only the essential. Two centrally located dials keep even the rear passengers up to speed about the details of their experience. There is even an Aston Martin rivaling timepiece that has been integrated into the super car concept. Parmigiani, the Swiss maker of fine watches, created the removable Reverso Tourbillon clock for the Galibier, which may be worn on the wrist thanks to a cleverly designed leather strap.
We can know more from http://www.carsmagz.com/2010-bugatti-galibier-concept, that the new concept car is the Bugatti Galibier large grille design with Bugatti, Bugatti run large, round headlamps and LED Bugatti grabs. Find the sleek design, it is very interesting. Even using the Galibier Bugatti concept car engine, complemented by 16-cylinder, 8-liter engine with two-stage supercharging. Combination of art-design concept with Bugatti Galibier unusually rigid, but is also extremely light. And the wings and doors are made of aluminum.
The culmination of its centenary of ceremonies, presented Bugatti Automobiles SAS customers and opinion leaders of the Galibier Bugatti concept in the most exclusive, elegant and powerful car with four doors in the world last weekend in Molsheim are intended. At the historical site, where Ettore Bugatti once laid the groundwork for his company, Bugatti’s current president, Dr.-Ing. Franz-Josef Paefgen said that the Bugatti 16C Galibier is one of the studies, which draws the concept of the company concerned, the future of the brand Bugatti.
Art – molds – Engineering: these are the brand values that Ettore Bugatti and his son Jean-around more powerful engines and more precious body design for each new model that are unparalleled in quality-oriented, treatment, accelerating the development and refinement. In the process, she experimented again and again with new material without compromise, “said one of the first Bugatti manufacturer of aluminum parts for tools, machines and wheels used.
Art – molds – Engineering is the brand values that guided the design and engineering team of Bugatti Automobiles SAS in the development of the Bugatti Galibier. The new four-door concept car, Bugatti again takes a leading role in the use of new combinations of materials. The body is handmade from carbon parts dark blue color, so that when the lighting, the web structure shines through remarkably. Carbon is not only exceptionally rigid, but is also extremely light. The wings and doors are made of polished aluminum.
The review from http://www.bugattigalibier.us told us,after Bugatti unleashed their multi-million dollar W16 quad-turbo 1001hp Veyron, many gearheads wondered what possibly could Bugatti have up their sleeves next. Well… your answer is named Galibier. After a long period of teasers and speculation, Bugatti has finally taken the cloth off of their follow up to the supermanesque Veyron.
The new Bugatti Galibier, which was previously reffered to as the Bordeaux, is a four-door supercar concept that shares the same powerplant as it’s counterpart Veyron. The Galibier is absolutely stunning, it carries some design cues from the Veyron but the materials used here are a bit more elegant and tasteful. Not to discount the Veyron in any way, but the dark blue carbon fiber weave is like nothing I have ever seen before. The polished aluminum shell over the doors and fenders that greets the blue carbon fiber is an absolutely stunning combination. The W16, unlike the Veyron, is mounted up front and redesigned to run off optional ethanol fuel. Bugatti claims a top speed of 217 mph for the Galibier, a bit shy of the Veyron’s top speed but you show me a four-door sedan capable of 200+ mph!! More details are to be revealed during the Frankfurt Autoshow.
This year is an important one for Bugatti. Not only does 2009 represent the centenary of the legendary marque but it also now marks the unveiling of a super sedan that may constitute the future plans of the company. One hundred years to the month since the company was founded by Ettore Bugatti, we now have our first look at Bugatti’s latest concept: the 2009 Bugatti Galibier 16C.
Speaking previously, Bugatti chief Franz-Josef Paefgen revealed that there are in fact three proposed designs for the next-gen Bugatti. This news mates well with what Bugatti officials told TheCarConnection in July, which is that the Galibier 16C is in fact a design model being shown to clients and dealers.
According to a new report, the concept may go into production once the run of Veyron’s have come to an end, expected to be sometime in 2012.
The Galibier 16C is constructed from a mix of aluminum and carbon-fiber, which will ensure that it is the lightest car in its class. The body itself is made of polished aluminum and dark blue carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP), and LED lights flank each end.
Another review From http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z14732/Bugatti-16-C-Galibier-Concept.aspx, descripting that,as the climax of its centenary celebration ceremonies, Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. presented customers and opinion-makers with the Bugatti 16 C Galibier concept, intended to be the most exclusive, elegant, and powerful four door automobile in the world last weekend in Molsheim. At the historic site where Ettore Bugatti once laid the cornerstone of his company, Bugatti's current president, Dr. Ing. Franz-Josef Paefgen emphasised that the Galibier is one of several concept studies with which the company is considering for the future of the Bugatti marque.
Art - Form - Technique: those are the brand values to which Ettore Bugatti and his son Jean oriented themselves in order to develop even more powerful engines and even more noble body designs for each new model, which were without equal in quality, handling, speed and elegance. In the process, they experimented again and again without compromise with new materials; thus was Bugatti one of the first manufacturers to use aluminium parts for bodies, engine blocks and wheels.
Art - Form - Technique are also the brand values to which the design and engineering team of Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. oriented themselves in the development of the Galibier. With this new four-door concept car, Bugatti assumes anew a leading role in the use of new material combinations. Thus the body is constructed of handmade carbon fibre parts coloured dark blue so that, when illuminated, the woven structure shimmers through strikingly. Carbon fibre not only possesses unusually great rigidity but is also especially light. The wings and doors are out of polished aluminium.
The Galibier's design masters the challenge of uniting sportiness with the comfort and elegance of a modern four-door saloon. The basic architecture picks up on the torpedo-like character of the Type 35, which was already revived in the Veyron, and reinterprets it. With the typical Bugatti radiator grille, big round LED headlights and the clamshell running the length of the vehicle which became synonymous with the brand identity under Jean Bugatti in the Type 57, this car transports the Bugatti genes into the modern world.
Beneath the bonnet, which folds back from both sides, there resides a 16-cylinder, 8-litre engine with two stage supercharging. What makes this engine special is that it was developed as a flex-fuel engine and can optionally be run on ethanol. Four-wheel drive specially developed ceramic brakes and a new suspension design enable the agile, always-sure handling of a saloon of this size.
The interior reflects the elemental design of the exterior. The dash panel has been reduced to the essential; two centrally located main instruments keep even the rear passengers constantly informed of the actual speed and previous performance Parmigiani, the Swiss maker of fine watches, created the removable Reverso Tourbillon clock for the Galibier, which may be worn on the wrist thanks to a cleverly designed leather strap.
'Galibier' is not just the name of one of the most difficult alpine passes along the Tour de France but, in its time, was a version of the four door Type 57 unequalled in sportiness and elegance.
