It's that whale hump again.

Is this the future of automotive design?!?

I like the front and side. Rear is clearly from the VW Phaeton concept a decade ago...poorly done like the Panamera

Didn't like it with a Porsche emblem and I don't like it with a Bugatti emblem...

So I assume the hatchback is making a comeback. Mediocre at best.

i like the ridge in the middle

pays homeage to the classic Bugatti T57S Atlantic



but the rear still needs to be better executed...
interior is clean and sexy though, very luxurious without unneeded fuss

perhaps they were going for 1 exhaust per cylinder? lol

out of all the fastback/hatch/wagon luxury cars, this is one of the least offensive.

The audi sportback looks the best.

This fits the rounded bubbly cockroach design theme of Bugatti though.
