A true one-off Bugatti Chiron will go under the hammer on Feb. 1 at an RM Sotheby\u2019s auction in Paris, with a percentage of the proceeds to be donated to charity.<\/p>\n
Called the Chiron Profil\u00e9e, the car is a pre-production model not included in the planned 500-unit run of Chirons<\/a>.<\/p>\n It was developed in response to customer demand for a tamer, more elegant version of the hardcore, track-focused Chiron Pur Sport<\/a> launched in early 2020. However, higher than expected demand for the Chiron in general meant all 500 build slots for the hypercar were already accounted for before the Chiron Profil\u00e9e could be brought to market.<\/p>\n “It is, in every sense, a unique piece in Bugatti\u2019s history and a true collector\u2019s item,\u201d Christophe Piochon, Bugatti’s president, said in a statement. \u201cAnd we wanted to give a fair chance to any devotee of the Bugatti brand to acquire this unique car, so we decided to partner with RM Sotheby\u2019s to auction it.”<\/p>\n
