The History of Bugatti

The history of Bugatti cars go way back to 1900, when Ettore became inspired by the new petrol-engines and decided to build his own vehicle. A year later, he built his own and the first ‘Bugatti’ car was made. In 1910, the first machines for the Bugatti plant had been delivered. Therefore, the company soon began production of vehicles. A total of five cars were built that year, all of which were sold. The same year, Ernest Fredrich (Ettore Bugatti’s Assistant) participated in numerous races. This marked the beginning of a successful car company on the racing circuit.

Jumping to late 1900's and early 2000's In 1987, Romano Artioli an Italian entrepreneur, acquired the Bugatti brand and renamed it to ‘Bugatti Automobili SpA’. Two years later, plans for a new Bugatti car were presented by designers of the Lamborghini Countach and Lamborghini Miura concepts. The new company then introduced their first production vehicle, the Bugatti EB 110 GT, in 1992.Currently, Bugatti is one of the top French automobile manufacturers and operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Volkswagen AG presented as a luxury top class brand. Additionally, the company has two subsidiaries of its own, namely Bugatti Engineering GmbH and Bugatti International S.A.
