Default Bugatti Type 12-2 Streamliner: 2+2 GT Concept Design




To ourknowledge, Bugatti’s near-future plans don’t include the addition of an all-new model and in particular a GT. But lets say owner VW Group wanted to create a 2+2 seater to take on the likes of the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti; what do you think it would look like? 31-year-old freelance designer Reuben Zammit from Malta has an idea as he penned a four seater Bugatti with a front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout. Zammit’s Streamline Type 12-2 design concept was created to fit the VW Group’s twin-turbo W12 engine (hence the name Type 12-2). Check all the renderings right after the jump.

Looks very good to me! The front fascia particularly is 1001x better than the Veyron

Too predictable? It's not a good design or speculation.

not a good design, they should ask Wiesmann to design one for them

Nah. That's like saying that Esprits look like Gallardos because they're flat-ish

the front profile of the cars are what strike me as similar: the outer corners of the hood tapering from the corners of the windshield down to a single narrow grille, two vertical oval headlights, and a short front overhang. either way they still should drop that two tone theme

I like it. Need to be cleaned up around the edges but not a bad looking concept.
