The Chiron Super Sport ‘Hommage T50S,’ a custom design from Bugatti’s Sur Mesure division, was unveiled recently. This hypercar, which is all black, honors the racing heritage of the renowned 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Honoring Bugatti’s storied motorsport heritage, the ‘Hommage T50S recalls the triumphs of the Type 50S in 1931 and the iconic Type 57G Tank’s victory at Le Mans in 1937. However, the centerpiece of Bugatti’s racing lineage, the Type 35, takes center stage this year as it celebrates its centenary.
The Type 35’s unparalleled achievements include clinching the Grand Prix World Championship in 1926 and securing victory in the Targa Florio five consecutive times. With over 1,000 race wins and 47 records, the Bugatti Type 35 remains an enduring symbol of racing excellence.
While the ‘Hommage T50S’ pays tribute to Bugatti’s illustrious past, it also hints at the brand’s future aspirations, blending heritage with innovation in the realm of bespoke automotive craftsmanship.
