Translated from German:
A Bugatti for 50.000 euro
Of Germany strong stuermer Boxster and Z4 get competition: The small Bugatti from the house VOLKSWAGEN could become a direct hit.

A case for the fairy tale uncle? By no means. This time Volkswagen company head wants to make Bernd Pischetsrieder Ernst and to finally carry out its dream of the lightweight construction central engine haven car. Not, as originally planned, first for the mark VOLKSWAGEN, but in the first stage as over fliers, substitute symbols and trendsetters for Bugatti. The objective is clear: That becomes a racer against BMW (Z4), AUDI (TT) and Porsche (Boxster). Pikant: AUDI belongs directly to the company, and Porsche sits with its boss Wendelin Wiedeking in the Volkswagen supervisory board.
The car with the development numbers BG913 (Coupé) and BG914 (roadster) uses the company component system and is with a four-cylinder turbo engine to be equipped. Really meaningfully is the whole however only, if the entire family profits from it. Thus additional variants with VOLKSWAGEN, Audi and Seat. But why straight Bugatti is to play the role of the pioneer? Does a four-cylinder fit at all the mark? Can development and selling lift this project? Which technical contents correspond to the high requirement of Bugatti? Many questions, on which there are many answers.

⢠perfectly independent body, extremely rigid aluminum composite construction with innovative safety features
⢠consistently individual Interieur, minimalistic cockpit with painted sheet metal, hammered light alloy, leather, wood no
⢠typical Bugatti Versatzstuecke such as grill, wheels, color does not interpret - a Retro Design new
⢠modular electronics platform from the company shelf, but also again-arranged surface/terminals
⢠new technique components: Front axle, rear axle, steering element, brake. No compromises, no already existing components
⢠DSGtransmission with seven instead of six courses
⢠Four-cylinderturbo, basis gulf GTI/Audi S3, 2.0 litres capacity, but with changed rating. First stage with 280 HP, second stage starting from 2015 with 320 HP
⢠Time track 2010 to 2020, first roadster, then Coupé
