Global Concepts (Part 2)
Bugatti EB18/4 Veryon

The Bugatti EB18/4 Veryon is named after racing driver Pierre Veryon. As with the Frankfurt EB18/3 Chiron, the EB18/4 is based on the underpinnings of the Lamborghini Diablo, another marque in VW's stable, and powered by VW's W18 engine, which is three banks of six cylinders mounted on a common crankshaft. The 72-valve all-aluminum engine features six camshafts and variable valve timing and puts out 414 kW (555 hp) at 6800 rpm. The Veryon is clothed in a VW-designed two-seat body with very short overhangs.
