Bugatti launches one‑off ‘Blanc Éternel’ hypercar with hand‑painted porcelain lines
Bugatti’s W16 Mistral ‘Blanc Éternel’ is a one‑of‑one, porcelain‑white hypercar created in partnership with the Königliche Porzellan‑Manufaktur (KPM) in Berlin. The car’s bodywork is hand‑painted with fine black lines that trace the hidden geometry of its fully digital NURBS design, turning the underlying 3D model into a visible graphic composition. The porcelain material is also used for the EB emblem, fuel and oil caps, engine‑cover inlays, and various interior touchpoints such as speaker covers, kneepad inlays, gear‑shift shells, and window‑lifter buttons. Only 99 examples of the W16 Mistral were planned; the ‘Blanc Éternel’ edition has already been allocated to its owners and was priced at €5.95 million before tax. As the final road‑going model powered by Bugatti’s 8.0‑liter quad‑turbo W16 engine, the car blends ultra‑luxury craftsmanship with the digital design process that defines modern hypercars.
