All car companies have announced their long-term plans, or will announce them, about what we can expect in the future when it comes to the current offer as well as new models. In an interview with Automobilwoche, Mate Rimac talked about the ten-year plan for Bugatti.

The demand for SUV cars is expanding. Many manufacturers such as Aston Martin, Bentley and Rolls Royce have joined Porsche, BMW, Mercedes and other car manufacturers that have had SUVs in their range for many years. Some have resisted it for a long time, like McLaren and Ferrari, but they too will soon introduce their SUVs. One of the few brands that still successfully resists this trend is Bugatti.

In the interview, Rimac said that Bugatti will not produce an SUV in the near future, but that they will not produce a fully electric Bugatti either. At least not in the next ten years. “A purely electric version is not included in our 10-year plan for Bugatti. There will also be no SUV,” said Mate Rimac. This does not mean that Bugatti is completely rejecting electrification, as it aims to produce a car with an electric range of 31 miles (50 km).

Bugatti recently unveiled its new model, the Bugatti Mistral, the last to be powered by the W16 petrol engine. It is a limited edition based on the Chiron. It costs 5 million euros, and all 99 cars have already been sold.
