Bugatti offers precious few details about the power source for its Vision Gran Turismo concept, saying only that there’s a W-16 engine.

It could be driven on a racetrack, but it doesn’t meet any safety regulations, so it’s not street legal. The result of intensive testing and product development, the sub-brand N builds on Hyundai Motor’s successful motorsport experiences and technology capability to drive future performance-oriented and race-track-capable models forward and bring “the most thrilling winding road” fun to customers who truly love cars. A purely conceptual extrapolation comes via the N 2025 Vision Gran Turismo, which joins the expanding list of carmaker-created superfast racers for Sony’s Playstation game.

Bugatti’s Veyron series, limited to just 450 vehicles with a starting price of over a million euros, have now all been sold. Bugatti engineers calculate that the Bugatti Gran Turismo will run at a maximum speed of over 400 km/hr (250 mph) on the straights. While the first Hyundai “N” auto is likely to be spun from the Euro-spec i20 – a super-mini one size below our Accent model, there’s still no word on when or if we’ll see the N sub-brand make its debut here in America.

“We didn’t want to create just some kind of fantasy or science fiction project which is quite normal in that category”. It’s a smart bit of consumer outreach: If only a fraction of virtual Bugatti drivers turn into actual owners, the Vision Gran Turismo will have been very good for business.

It has state-of-the-art aerodynamics and drag reduction system.
