Which Bugatti Bolide Version Should You Choose?
The Bugatti Bolide catalogue contains only one generation and one version, so there is no alternative engine, gearbox, body style, or model year range to compare. The sole choice is the 8.0 W16 AWD DSG, a Coupe produced from October 2020 with 1,850 hp, 1,850 Nm, an 8.0-litre-class Gasoline engine, a 7-speed Robotic gearbox, and AWD.
The Bugatti Bolide catalogue contains only one generation and one version, so there is no alternative engine, gearbox, body style, or model year range to compare.

It is therefore the version to choose if these specifications meet your requirements; the supplied data provides no lower-powered, lighter, differently driven, or differently bodied Bolide against which to balance price or performance. Price and sale information are not measured.
Bugatti Bolide generations and versions
The Bugatti Bolide has 1 generation in the catalogue. The 1 generation began in October 2020 and has no recorded end date. It is offered as a Coupe and contains 1 version: 8.0 W16 AWD DSG. No restyling or additional generation is listed.
Because the catalogue includes just one generation, there is no earlier Bolide to choose for a different engine or a later generation offering revised performance. There is also no numerical basis for saying that one generation changed power, weight, drivetrain, or acceleration compared with another. Buyers choosing from the supplied catalogue are selecting the specification itself rather than choosing between generations.
Bugatti Bolide engine and specs
| Version | Power | Torque | Displacement | Fuel | Cylinders | Layout | Boost | Gearbox | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8.0 W16 AWD DSG | 1,850 hp (1,360 kW) at 7,000 rpm | 1,850 Nm at 2,000 rpm | 7,993 cc | Gasoline, 95 | 16 | W-shaped | Turbo | 7-speed Robotic | AWD |
The 8.0 W16 AWD DSG uses a centrally located engine with Direct injection (direct). It has 4 valves per cylinder and an 86 × 86 bore-and-stroke measurement. Compression ratio is not measured.
Calculated from the catalogue figures, the engine produces approximately 231.5 hp per litre: 1,850 hp divided by 7.993 litres. Output is approximately 170.1 kW per litre, using the listed 1,360 kW and 7.993-litre displacement. Torque per litre is approximately 231.5 Nm, because the listed power in horsepower and torque in newton-metres are both 1,850.
These calculated values help explain what the only version offers, but they do not create a comparison with another Bolide. Engine weight, engine price, engine-bay dimensions, and a separate engine name are not measured.
Bugatti Bolide performance, acceleration, and economy
The 8.0 W16 AWD DSG accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.1 seconds. A 0–60 mph result is not measured, so the 0–100 km/h figure should not be relabelled as a 0–60 mph time.
Top speed is not measured. Consequently, the supplied data cannot answer how fast the Bugatti Bolide ultimately travels, despite the version’s listed 1,850 hp output. Estimating top speed from horsepower, weight, or acceleration would introduce a figure that is not present in the catalogue.
City fuel consumption is not measured. Highway fuel consumption is not measured, and combined fuel consumption is not measured. CO₂ emissions and ecological class are also not measured. The catalogue therefore provides no mpg or consumption-based reason to choose or reject this version.
Bugatti Bolide dimensions and weight
The 8.0 W16 AWD DSG has a kerb weight of 1,240 kg and ground clearance of 70 mm. Calculated from the listed weight and power, it carries approximately 0.67 kg per horsepower, or delivers approximately 1,492 hp per tonne. Using the listed metric output, the corresponding calculation is approximately 1.10 kg per kW.
Gross weight is not measured. Fuel-tank capacity is not measured, and wheel sizes are not measured. Overall length, width, height, wheelbase, steering-wheel dimensions, and engine weight are not measured. The available data therefore supports a kerb-weight comparison with engine output, but not a broader comparison of exterior size, load capacity, or fuel range.
The front suspension is Independent, spring, and the rear suspension is Independent, spring. Both the front and rear brakes are Ventilated disc. These are the only listed chassis configurations, so there is no alternative suspension or brake package to select.
Which Bugatti Bolide version should you buy?
Choose the 8.0 W16 AWD DSG if the deciding requirements are 1,850 hp, 1,850 Nm, AWD, a 7-speed Robotic gearbox, a 1,240 kg kerb weight, and 0–100 km/h acceleration in 2.1 seconds. Its calculated 231.5 hp per litre and 0.67 kg per horsepower summarize the relationship between its engine output and kerb weight.
There is no second version to recommend for a different priority. No less powerful version trades output for economy, no rear-wheel-drive version changes the drivetrain, and no alternative body style changes practicality within the supplied catalogue. Those are absences from the catalogue, not claims that such configurations could never exist.
Price is not measured, so it is not possible to explain what extra money buys or identify a better-value Bolide. Availability, cars for sale, street legality, reliability, problems, and ownership costs are also not measured. On the facts provided, the buying decision is simple: either the single 8.0 W16 AWD DSG specification fits the intended use, or this catalogue offers no alternative Bugatti Bolide version to compare against it.
