Many foreign media outlets have pointed out that Bugatti is ready to launch a new model even more expensive than the Veyron (though Bugatti is definitely unwilling to confirm this news). This top-tier Bugatti will be named "Royale." The reason it is called "Royale" is mainly because its design concept originates from the Type 41 Royale, which Bugatti introduced at the onset of the global economic depression in 1929.

It is understood that the powertrain for the Bugatti Royale will be developed from the existing 8.0-liter W16 engine, and it is expected that its performance in terms of power output will surpass that of the Veyron. In addition, Bugatti may also equip the Royale with a dual-clutch transmission to enhance its performance. However, the price is likely to reach an astonishing new level, making the Royale one of the most expensive top-tier four-door supercars in the world. The Royale will take things to the next level compared to the Veyron, which has successfully established itself among the world's top supercars.
