Bugatti : Six automobiles, one legend

In the late 1920s, Ettore Bugatti conceived the unthinkable: creating the world's most prestigious car. Thus the Bugatti Royale was born - a colossal project intended for kings and the elite, of which only six examples were ever produced. To this day, these extraordinary automobiles captivate with their elegance, power, and unique history. Each of the six Royales possesses an identity, a destiny, and an aura that transcend the realm of the automobile to enter the realm of legend.

Through this richly illustrated volume, immerse yourself in the exclusive world of the Bugatti Royale: their origins, technical secrets, owners, and the historic moments that defined their existence. An exceptional book for discovering, understanding, and admiring these six absolute automotive masterpieces..

Review

Relatively thin book on the Bugatti Royale, and not very expensive. I bought it at the Bugatti Festival in Molsheim, on September 6, 2026.

As one might expect, there is not so much new info on the Royale's and the new photographs are modern ones. However, for those not yet familiar with the Royale and it's history, or the history of each individual car, this is a fine book.
