Does a V16 car exist?
In june 2024, bugatti unveiled the tourbillon, the successor to the chiron, marking a modern revival of the v16 configuration. The tourbillon features an 8. L (506 cu in) naturally aspirated v16 engine co-developed with cosworth. The dubai-based company claimed the sixteen would be powered by a 12. v16 engine producing 5,000 horsepower! For context, the bugatti chiron makes about 1,500 hp, and even the wildest koenigsegg creations are in the 1,600–1,800 hp range. Devel was talking about more than tripling that output.The Bugatti WR16 is a quad-turbocharged, W16 engine, manufactured under the high-performance luxury sports car marque Bugatti, since 2005.
