Every Bugatti leaving Molsheim undergoes a strict quality control process, and the track-only Bolide is no exception. Before reaching its owner, each Bolide faces an intensive final inspection and circuit testing to ensure absolute perfection.
With 1,600 horsepower and a lightweight carbon fiber chassis, the Bolide is the most extreme expression of Bugatti’s DNA.

Its final validation takes place at Circuit de Mirecourt, where Bugatti’s expert team rigorously tests its performance under controlled conditions.
The shakedown process involves a dedicated team of specialists and is divided into two phases. The first focuses on precision, with gradual braking tests, steering validation, and system checks at increasing speeds.
The second phase pushes the car to its limits, including high-speed laps up to 300 km/h, launch control activations, and extreme braking forces of -2.5G with temperatures reaching 1,000°C.
Using advanced telemetry and expert human assessment, Bugatti ensures every Bolide meets its exacting standards.
Customers will experience this track masterpiece firsthand at Bugatti’s exclusive ‘Feeling the Track’ events, with the next gathering set for Circuit of the Americas in May.
