The French company released a short video that previews a mysterious new model on its social media channels, but the 12-second teaser film asks more questions than it answers.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s start with what we see: The video zooms in on four horizontal LED strips that look like they&#8217;re either a headlight or part of one. If we&#8217;re indeed looking at a headlight, the new model seemingly steers clear of borrowing styling cues from the Chiron, which wears horizontal units. Deciphering the various hashtags isn&#8217;t much help. Bugatti titled the video &#8220;Unlock an Icon&#8221; and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/watch\/?v=797280894801709\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:1;\">hinted<\/a> that it&#8217;s &#8220;#OpeningUpNewHorizons.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">UNLOCK AN ICON<br \/> 19 AUGUST 2022 | 10:20 PST (17:20 GMT)<br \/> THE QUAIL, A MOTORSPORTS GATHERING<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BUGATTI?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:2;\">#BUGATTI<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/MontereyCarWeek?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:3;\">#MontereyCarWeek<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TheQuail?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:4;\">#TheQuail<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheQuailEvents?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:5;\">@TheQuailEvents<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NP0v0AF2CS\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:6;\">pic.twitter.com\/NP0v0AF2CS<\/a><\/p>\n<p> \u2014 Bugatti (@Bugatti)<br \/>\n <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Bugatti\/status\/1559178098570137600?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:7;\">August 15, 2022<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p\/>\n<p>As for the rest, well &#8230; your guess is as good as ours.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever we&#8217;re looking at, it will be the first new Bugatti model since Croatia-based Rimac <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2021\/07\/05\/bugatti-rimac-deal\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:8;\">took over the brand<\/a> in June 2021.
