A second teaser image of Bugatti's upcoming Bordeaux super sedan has surfaced.
Like the first teaser, that we brought you earlier this week, the new picture shows the rear end of Bugatti's highly anticipated sedan. While we can't make out a lot of details, it is clear the Bordeaux features a distinctive design thanks to two horizontal horseshoe taillights and a large vertical center taillight which suggests the car may have a split rear window. Below the unique lighting display, we can see twin sets of quad tailpipes.
While details are scarce, the Veyron's quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W16 engine is expected to see duty in the new sedan. This likely means the Bordeaux will boast 1001 hp and 1250 Nm of torque, which should earn it the title of being the fastest and most powerful sedan ever created.
Despite costing an estimated several hundred thousand dollars more than the new Bentley "Grand", the Bordeaux will likely borrow much of its underpinnings from the Arnage successor.
The picture reportedly comes from an invitation to an event which takes place during the Frankfurt Motor Show, so expect a concept version of the Bordeaux to debut in September.

No question at all this car has a split rear window and also a ridge running along its length down the centre line in the style of the Bugatti Atlantic; also a theme picked up on the Bugatti EB112 concept:

As you will see, this car later went into production and was renamed the Porsche Panamera... ;-)

Bet it will look like a R8!!!!
i wonder if they put out a eco-version. they could f.e. combine two v12 tdi engines of the q7, make it a w24 tdi and put a nox kat on it. would be nice.

Why they didn't put 3 in each side and the other 2 in front of the rear tire just like the SLR instead of putting all of them together?
This car will look terrible, but will still obviously be sold out before it's even built. It's fine to make a mid-engined hypercar look brash and ridiculous, but for Bugatti to do the same to a luxury saloon, that's just tasteless...
