| In 2021 Volkswagen struck a deal that saw control of the Bugatti brand pass to Croatia’s Rimac, which now owns 55% of a joint venture with Porsche as the minority owner. The first new model since Rimac took over is the Bugatti Tourbillon. Two electric motors and two inverters feed 600 horsepower to the front wheels. In the rear is another 200-horsepower electric motor and a V-16 internal combustion engine. The 64-valve, naturally aspirated 8.3-liter engine uses four throttle bodies and is rated at 1,000 horsepower. 0-60 mph is 2 seconds flat. Top speed is a tire destroying 277 mph. |  |
