Two leading hypercar manufacturers now under one joint brand.
The Bugatti brand continues to prove itself as an industry leader with the help of its President Stephan Winklemann. Since 2018, Winklemann has led the hypercar manufacturers down a road of success with the expansion of the Chiron fleet and the redefined modern-day coachbuilding division. Bugatti is now proud to announce its joint partnership with the electric sports car professionals at Rimac Automobili of Nedelja, Croatia.
Stephan Winklemann expresses his love for the Bugatti brand and all of its milestone accomplishments during his time acting as President. With the new joint venture, Winklemann will be parting with the brand and focusing his efforts as Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. During the shift towards its partnership, Bugatti lead team members will receive new roles and take on new challenges to launch the Bugatti Rimac brand into the future of the automotive industry.
All Bugatti models will continue to be made by hand at the Molsheim Atelier. Therefore, the jobs located there remain secure for the long term. The Bugatti Rimac joint company will start with 435 employees, of whom 300 will work in Zagreb and 135 in Molsheim (France). In addition, there will be 180 employees from the Wolfsburg development site. Bugatti and Rimac will continue to act as independent brands and retain their production sites in Zagreb and Molsheim, as well as their respective sales channels. As independent brands, they will continue growing with separate and extraordinary vehicles. “For more than 110 years, Bugatti has been making the most exclusive and high-quality cars in the world,” says Christophe Piochon, President of Bugatti. This goal has not changed and will not change in the future. View all current Bugatti models available for sale on duPont REGISTRY by clicking the link below.
