We have always known Bugatti cars to be the epitome of engineering perfection. The hypercar brand has now achieved another feat. Bugatti has revealed the Chiron Super Sport Golden Era – a one-off bespoke creation that transcends automotive engineering. The Chiron Super Sport Golden Era symbolises the pinnacle of hand-crafted luxury and artwork with 400 hours of master craftsmanship.
This project represents a remarkable collaboration between Bugatti’s design team and a passionate collector. The masterpiece is a result of Bugatti’s Sur Mesure philosophy, where boundless customization possibilities become a reality for its customers. The one-off Bugatti Chiron Super Sport Golden Era was crafted over two years and pays homage to Bugatti’s rich history and engineering prowess.
How Was The Artwork Drawn?
The Bugatti design team utilized the same pencils typically employed for sketching on paper, directly applying them to the car’s surface. This innovative approach ensured that the sketches retained an authentic and genuine appearance, avoiding any artificial or low-quality results.
Golden Era Exterior Art Details
The one-off hypercar involves 45 meticulously hand-drawn sketches of Bugatti’s most iconic vehicles directly onto the car’s exterior. Starting off with the beautiful-looking bespoke colour named ‘Doré’ subtly fading into a special metallic variant of ‘Nocturne Black’.
Moving to the artwork, on the driver’s side, 19 sketches celebrate the modern era, featuring the trailblazing EB110, the game-changing Veyron, and the awe-inspiring Chiron. While on the passenger side, the car features 26 historic cars from the brand including the Type 41 Royale, the elegantly sculpted Type 57 SC Atlantic and more. The underside of the rear spoiler has the word ‘Golden Era’ painted on it.
Golden Era Interior Art Details
The interior of the Chiron Super Sport Golden Era continues the celebration, with hand-painted Bugatti icons adorning the door panels.
Entering the car from the driver’s side, the first thing you notice is a doorsill that says ‘1987 – 2003’. This is a homage to the rebirth and enduring success of Bugatti since 1987. Looking at the driver’s door from the inside, you can spot sketches of three Bugatti cars: the EB110, Veyron and the Chiron.
Coming to the passenger’s side, the doorsill has ‘1909 – 1959’ written that pays tribute to the times of Ettore, Jean and Roland Bugatti. The passenger door panel has the Type 35, the Type 57 SC Atlantic and the Type 41 Royale painted on it.
- Headrests have the word ‘Golden Era’ embroidered on them.
- The Center console has the word ‘One of One’ painted on a piece of carbon fibre.
