There were only 250 Model S cars and 100 Model X SUVs produced, all of which included the Plaid powertrain and a number of handcrafted features that set them apart.

Bugatti Tourbillon Specs Cold Weather Testing Sweden
Engineers and drivers gathered at the Colmis Proving Ground in Arjeplog, northern Sweden, for a four-week endurance test of the new Bugatti Tourbillon hypercar under the worst winter conditions possible. As they arrived, the place was a winter paradise (or nightmare), with snow piled up everywhere and temps starting at -30 degrees.

Their mission was simple: ensure that every function in the automobile worked flawlessly regardless of the weather.

Evoluto 355 Ferrari F355 Restomod Top Gear Test Drive
Ferrari built the F355 in the 1990s as a pure driver’s machine with a screaming V8 and timeless lines. Evoluto took that foundation and refined every inch without losing the original character.
