Bugatti intends to keep manufacturing internal combustion engines post-2035 and might offer artificial fuel to support this endeavor.
Smaller car manufacturers like Bugatti possess advantages in terms of adhering to regulations when compared to larger corporations.
Upcoming Bugatti models are expected to enhance their overall quality.
Bugatti is gearing up to introduce the successor to the Chiron in the next few weeks, equipped with its remarkable V16 Hybrid powertrain, and if you had concerns that this might mark the conclusion of combustion engine Bugattis, CEOMate Rimac is ready to allay those fears. As per Auto Express, Rimac shared some exciting revelations recently at the 2024 FT Future of the Car Summit in London regarding Bugatti’s future, echoing his recent statements about his eponymous brand.
Without a doubt, the primary issue is the emergence of the Euro 7 regulations that supposedly prohibit the production of internal combustion engines after 2035, but Rimac mentions that’s not a major concern. “I’ve reviewed the regulations and I fail to see any reason why it would be infeasible – the headlines declare the ban on combustion engines from 2035, but upon reading the fine print, there is no such mention – you can still manufacture them, albeit with possible penalties.”

The Euro 7 guidelines have recently been revised to permit the utilization of synthetic fuels post-2035, offering the company two avenues for further internal combustion engine production. If you’re able to afford a million-dollar hypercar, you’re probably willing to handle the additional costs associated with owning one, whether it be a substantial 50% tax or synthetic fuel priced at $50 per gallon. “You could even design some exquisite Bugatti fuel stations for the residences of owners, utilizing synthetic fuels,” he proposed to enhance the attractiveness of the deal.
These small automakers are granted more flexibility in terms of compliance. It will be intriguing to observe how the regulations pertaining to them evolve as the Euro regulations are reviewed every few years as we approach the deadline.

Detail Enhancement Planned for Future Models
Although the reputation of Bugattis for quality is generally positive, Rimac acknowledges that substantial improvements can be made. “People anticipate mass-produced car quality in a low-volume vehicle. The general perception is that if you pay 10 or 100 times more for a car, it should be superior, but that’s not always the case,” he remarked. “For a mainstream vehicle like a BMW 5 Series, for instance, billions are invested, more prototypes are used than the entire production volume of a low-volume car to achieve the desired quality.”

We’ll have to wait and see precisely how the company managed to elevate the quality in its new supercar that shares “not a single piece” with the Chiron. The debut of the vehicle is scheduled for June 20th at the brand’s headquarters in Molsheim, France.
