Las Vegas has hosted its fair share of automotive spectacles, but this one, from earlier this week, is one of the most significant. In the early morning light, rows of Bugatti Veyrons and Chirons gleamed under the Nevada sky, framed by the Wynn’s manicured lawns and the unmistakable red glow of the Sphere in the background.
More than 60 Bugattis gathered for the Las Vegas Concours (October 31 – November 2), making it the largest Bugatti gathering in history. Among them, 49 Veyrons and dozens of W16-powered successors and special editions, all assembled to mark the 20th anniversary of the Veyron 16.4, the car that rewrote the rules of supercars and exotic cars back in the mid-2000s.
Last year, Bugatti brought similar energy to the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix, hosting an ultra-luxury owners’ experience that saw clients drive on the F1 circuit under the lights, while also venturing out into the Nevada desert. That same blend of performance and exclusivity carried over into this year’s Concours event, where an unprecedented fleet of Bugattis, Veyrons, Chirons, Divos, Centodiecis, Mistrals, and Bolides lined up in perfect symmetry on the grass.
Every car gathered here tells part of the story that began in 2005, when the Veyron famously debuted with 1,001 horsepower and a verified top speed of 253 mph, dethroning the McLaren F1’s long-held record to become the fastest production car in the world. That historic top speed run at Volkswagen’s Ehra-Lessien test track, with factory driver Andy Wallace behind the wheel, marked the beginning of Bugatti’s modern age.
Under Ferdinand Piëch’s leadership, the now iconic quad-turbo W16 became the foundation of an era defined by innovation. From the Veyron Super Sport to the Chiron, each new model refined the same 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged masterpiece. Now, with the Rimac-led Tourbillon set to debut with an all-new V16 hybrid powertrain, this gathering was both a celebration and a farewell.
The Las Vegas Concours d’Elegance at the Wynn has quickly evolved into one of America’s most exclusive automotive events. Set against the opulent backdrop of the Strip, it brings together historic icons, coachbuilt masterpieces, and contemporary legends in one place. For Bugatti, it was the ideal stage to honor two decades of engineering excellence.
With just 450 Veyrons and 500 Chirons ever produced, this stunning lineup of 60+ Bugatti hypercars in Nevada represented a once-in-a-lifetime view of the entire W16 bloodline and 90,000+ horsepower, gathered in one single place. For Miller Motorcars and Bugatti Greenwich, which has long played a role in the sale and upkeep of many of these vehicles, this event marked a celebration of a two-decade-long relationship with the French marque and its clientele.
