French hypercar producer Bugatti announced that they will introduce Buggati Divo in "The Qual" on August 24, 2018 to come, and reportedly that they only made 40 units. In a press release from Bugatti stating that Buggati Divo as a model is lightweight, agile and more fun to drive."

With Divo, we want to please many people around the world," said Stephan Winkelmann, president of Bugatti. Where, Divo's name was taken from a French racing driver, Albert Divo who won the Targa Florio title for Bugatti.

"Happiness is not around the corner. It is the corner. The Divo is made for corners," Winkelmann added. It's a different concept with the Bugatti Veyron, or Chiron which is known to be heavy and more precisely invited to explore at very (very) high speed.

But, Bugatti did not mention clearly whether Divo was a derivative model of the Chiron hypercar. Or a separate model. They just explained that Divo refers to Bugatti's "coachbuilding" tradition since the 1920s. It could be, Bugatti uses Chiron's chassis and powertrain as a base, then is given a number of improvements. Almost similar with the Ferrari one-off program, or Rolls-Royce Sweptail.

For those of you who are interested and curious about this car, Bugatti will present their Divo at the automotive fan gathering, "The Quail" which will take place in California on August 24, 2018.. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | BUGATTI | MONEY | AUTOEVOLUTION]
