Bloomberg: Bugatti 16C Galibier sedan approved for production by VW
According to two people familiar with the matter, Bugatti has won approval from parent Volkswagen AG to build the Bugatti 16C Galibier sedan (which looks like a station wagon/shooting brake). The move will add the brand’s first four-door model to its lineup.
The two people said that the production Bugatti 16C Galibier will cost around $1.4 million – no word on how many Bugatti plans on building and when they will see the light of day.
No this is not a April Fools joke.

Refresher: The Bugatti 16 C Galibier was one of the several concepts which the company is considering for a future model. Power comes from a 8.0L 16-cylinder engine that features two-stage supercharging. The engine is flex-fuel compatible, meaning it can run on ethanol. The Bugatti Galibier rides on a four-wheel-drive system and features ceramic brakes and a new suspension design that enables “agile, always-sure handling of a saloon of this size.”
