$10.7m Bugatti Chiron Profilée, The Most Valuable New Car Ever Sold At Auction, Delivered To Its Owner
$10.7 million Bugatti Chiron Profilée, the most valuable new car ever sold at auction, delivered to its owner.
Unnamed buyer personally collected the one and only Bugatti Chiron Profilée at the home of the French hypercar maker.
Bugatti Chiron Profilée was originally planned to be positioned between the Chiron Sport and the Chiron Pur Sport.
But the Chiron Profilée never made it into production as all 500 build slots for the limited-allocation Chiron had sold out.
The one-off Bugatti Chiron Profilée, the most valuable new car ever sold at auction, is finally united with its owner, who personally collected the truly remarkable automotive solitaire at the home of the French hypercar maker.
Sharing moments the exclusive one-of-one Chiron Profilée drove off from its home in Molsheim in a convoy of Centodieci, Bugatti said :
“Driving it away from Molsheim is surely a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will live on forever.”
“The CHIRON Profilée is timeless in every respect having been the focus of purposeful engineering and unparalleled craftsmanship from the dedicated BUGATTI teams.”
The first and only Bugatti Chiron Profilée secured its place in automotive history in February after an unnamed buyer paid record-breaking price of €9,792,500 ($10.7 million) to own it at an RM Sotheby’s auction in Paris.

Announcing the sales on his official Facebook page, Bugatti CEO Mate Rimac, said :
“World record for most expensive new car at auction – 9.7M € (+ VAT will be about 12M). Congrats to the whole Bugatti team! Thank you RM Sotheby’s! And congrats to the new owner.”
First unveiled in December 2022, the exclusive one-of-one Bugatti Chiron Profilée was originally planned to be positioned between the Chiron Sport and the Chiron Pur Sport.
But the Chiron Profilée never made it into production as all 500 build slots for the limited-allocation Bugatti Chiron had sold out faster than expected before its development was completed.
Profilée uses Bugatti’s 1,500 horsepower 8.0-liter W16 engine, allowing it to accelerate to 60 mph in 2.3 seconds and up to a top speed of 380 km/h, compared with the Chiron Pur Sport’s 350 km/h.
