The automotive industry is volatile. Emerging technologies, changing government regulations, tariffs, and fickle consumer trends make planning for the next model year a Herculean effort of hope and stress. It’s why so many automakers play it safe with their products, but there are outliers, like Bugatti. Demand for the brand’s newest hypercars is so high that any potential buyers will have to wait years for their car, if they can order one at all. And that’s good for the bespoke automaker.

Bugatti’s design director, Frank Heyl, told CarBuzz that the brand has so many orders that it makes it easy for Bugatti to “plan ahead.” “It’s all set,” he said. Heyl told the publication that finishing up Bolide production and beginning to build the Tourbillon would keep it busy for the next four years and that it’s sold out until 2029.

“If you have this [financial stability] as a business owner, it works out very solid,” he said.

That gives Bugatti plenty of time to figure out what comes after the Tourbillon, a hybrid hypercar with three electric motors and an 8.4-liter V-16 engine. It makes 1,800 horsepower, which can propel the car to 60 miles per hour in just 2.0 seconds. It also costs around $4 million to start, but good luck getting one. 

If you have the cash for that kind of performance, and haven’t already placed your Tourbillon order, you’ll have to set a reminder for 2029 to see what Bugatti cooks up next. The company has plenty of time to figure it out, and we’re already excited to see it.
