Bugatti, a maker of rapidly-moving motor carriages targeted at people who could also afford to buy, say, , revealed, via an interview with their president, Stephan Winkelmann, that an upcoming next Bugatti would have a body style that’s “” What the hell could he be talking about?

The interview was with , and the full quote is

“It’s clear that when you think about the second [Bugatti] model you always have to see what [the body style could be]. Believe me, we really looked into every detail of the body style and I think that there is one that is very promising for a company like Bugatti. [It’s a body style] which is not today on the market.”

A body style not on the market today? That’s an exciting idea. It’s tricky to figure out what this could possibly mean, too. I try to think about new body styles all the time, and it’s not easy, especially for the target market that Bugatti operates in.

Could they be ? Probably not.? Almost certainly not. A car where ? I doubt it.

What’s not currently on the market that Bugatti could possibly try? My one sort-of plausible guess is perhaps something like a one-box supercar, sort of like an even more high-end and outlandish Renault Aventime.

I don’t believe there are any premium one-box coupés on the market today, so maybe Bugatti could be planning some ultra-luxo thing like that.

But who the hell knows? This is Bugatti—they basically have more resources than God’s Night Manager’s rich grandpa, so they could be planning almost anything.

A Bugatti supercar-camper? A car ? A seven-wheeler? A gyro-balanced car with four wheels, but all in a line like a rollerblade? Something spherical?

I have no idea, but I think we should guess. Guess wildly. And then if one of us comes up with what it is, we can all enjoy a chuckle as Bugatti gets all pissed and cranky, like how they did when , uh, stupid.
