2014 Bugatti 12.4 Atlantique Concept car by Alan Guerzoni, visualizing the future of Bugatti cars, if it had been still in Italy.
This is the designer’s explanation:
Bugatti Veyron in an amazing supercar and technically could one of best of in the World, but in my opinion there’s a lack of passion. My question is: what if, 15 years ago, just after the EB110, Bugatti Automobili has been rested in Italy? This is the result, a future projected car inspired to an important ancestor: 1935 Type 57sc Atlantic coupe
This is a coupe inspired to 1930s streamline design, so has suicide doors, fenders separated from body, a very long bonnet, a low and aerodinamic tail, bi-color livery and a chrome line that splits the full body in two symmetrical halves. Lights use led technology. Third stop light is mounted on a fin on the roof. On top of each front fender is mounted a chromed fin: frontally it hosts signal lights, at the opposite a rear view camera that replaces side view mirrors. Materials used for cockpit are top quality leather, mahogany, aluminum and carbon fiber. In renderings you can see two different exterior trims:
- “Sport”, with 8 spokes rims inspired to Bugatti type 35
- “Classic” with full chrome rims inspired to Bugatti type 41 Royale, and rear wheels streamlined.

This car looks like it would have been designed for na na na na na na na na na.. BATMAN!
Just awesome!
This car looks amazing! Definantly looks better than the veyron which is a great looking high powered car for its time. But the atlantic concept definantily has more style and luxury I have had the honer of sitting in a 1937 type 57 atlantic which is pretty confortable for a 1930s french suppercar. They should bring this car into production if they did it would have a limited production lets say ten or less and would cost two to four times more than the veyron. They should throw in a V16 in the production version.
This is one badass car
