Today’s digital techniques and yesterday’s traditional methods rarely find common ground in creative expression, yet when they do, the result can be remarkable. Enter the new W16 Mistral “Blanc Éternel” hypercar: The 1,578 hp roadster is the latest one-off calling card from the French marque’s Sur Mesure division, which specializes in customization. In this case, it also shows off Bugatti’s encore collaboration with Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Berlin (KPM), an atelier that has produced porcelain masterworks since 1763.

Mesmerizing to look at, this singular Mistral stands out in a line already limited to only 99 examples and claimed to be the finale of street-legal models powered by the W16 mill. To that end, the “Blanc Éternel” carries the same power-train configuration as the others—Bugatti’s 8.0-liter, quad-turbo 16-cylinder heart paired with a seven-speed DSG dual-clutch gearbox. And the performance specs still equate to a zero-to-62 mph time of 2.4 seconds and a top speed of 273 mph.
