Matt Rimac and Christian Von Koenigsegg are my two favourite automobile brand CEO’s both of these guys seem like genuine people who know and love what they’re doing
@@VeriStrawberi I wonder what if these three gentlemen cooperate to make a single car. Horacio Pagani handles the look, while Matt Rimac and Christian Von Koenigsegg deal with the mechanics of the car
Mate Rimac deciding that an electric Bugatti would be the wrong move is unexpectedly wonderful to hear. He truly understands the pedigree and place that Bugatti has in the car world
Ettore Bugatti was of Italian origin but was naturalized French, lived then died in France. His son Jean who quickly succeeded him at the head of the family business and who designed the "Royale" then the "Atlantic" had full French citizenship.
To have Mate Rimac as the CEO of Bugatti was a stroke of genius. The man has genuine passion and engineering knowledge. He knows every little detail on this car and the reasoning behind it. Great video
Seeing a car CEO *THAT* excited about a car is, for lack of a better word, fun. You know that guy put his heart and soul into that car, and it certainly shows. Just... amazing.
Mate is such a gem of CEO. When asked about P1's back reference, he said it first and closed the argument. When compared to Pagani's finesse, he said that man is his hero and he's proud to be compared to him! No doubt this man is so successful, he's humble af.
I really appreciate the “digital detox” that he emphasizes. It truly adds to the driving experience retaining analog features. That gauge cluster itself is going to be amazing. I hope I can see one in person in my lifetime
I really appreciate how Mate Rimac is a CEO who is a genuine petrolhead and doesn't give an air of being a money grabber. He has a job to make a profit of course but he still gives the impression of being on the customer's side. The board of the VW Group made a great decision to appoint him to Bugatti.
@@Lemingtona-x5g Not exactly. He's the CEO of Bugatti Rimac "only". Porsche, Audi and Volkswagen have their own EV programmes though Bugatti Rimac may have some role of component supply. Mate himself has just over a third of the shares of Rimac, which has about just over half the shares of Bugatti within the merger.
@@mateonovakovic8261 Bugatti Rica Group is a joint venture with 55% Rimac ownership and 45% Porsche AG ownership. But Porsche AG also owns 24% of Rimac. So Germany still has a lot to do with Bugatti
cool ass CEO. It is like talking to some dude working inside his garage and really into the project he is working on and wants to share his journey with you

Mate Rimac is such a gem. A true car guy. He gives a nod to the McLaren P1 and recognizes Horacio Pagani as an inspiration. No false modesty or big ego with this guy. Bugatti is going to be an even better company. And profitable!
Mate is incredible, the design of bugatti were focusing on the bugattis like mistral, centodieci and chiron, but this man changed everything when he came, mostly people liked the chiron than the other models, so a new replica of chiron and interior was changed, and new clock design for the speedometer and it was magnificent, and more importantly the V16 engine (16 pistons) made it the chiron change, that’s how this beauty tourbillon was made, mate does really know what is the feelings of bugatti lovers and in the bugatti automotive world, this man is just on a another level!
@@carwow neither have I. My phone sensed a disturbance in the automotive force and sent me Carwow and carwow-ish TH-cam channels and said "take your pick". I guess I'll check the others after this 😂
Bugatti could not have hired a better CEO. This car is amazing, and it looks like Mate knows how to balance modern technology/requirements without compromising the purist aspects of a hypercar, much like Koenigsegg. Those organically designed suspension arms, and the overall curves of the body are just awesome. Such an exciting automobile.

Exactly and I was gettign sort of a Pagani vibe with that steering column setup also. This was just a prototype mock up but the real thing is probably gonna be made by swiss watchmakers and its gonna be awesome with super fine detailing.
Mate Rimac is a rare combination of humility and knowledge mixed as a petrolhead, explaining complex things very simple way....this guy will be a legend....credit to you Matt Watson for bringing this type of content to the public, you are one of the best in this buiseness....cheers🍻
Man, I was pretty skeptical back then when Bugatti was sold to Rimac i thought Bugatti was going full electric but then they dropped the V16 and now seeing the full package i'm stoked! That Rimac dude is a real Chad i love him! He made an even better Bugatti for petrolheads (i know, no Petrolhead is going to have this much money, so it is just a wet dream for us) N/A V16, switchable electric support or hybrid system, few screens because not attractive in 50 years XD Nice love this dude! Someone should give him a hug from me... I shouldn't have never been worried! Bugatti is in good Hands!
Its not really sold to Rimac but rather they merged. VW did not know what to do with Bugatti, this way they kept it in in VW Group but also in a way added Rimac to VW Group as independent hyper car section.
it combined the powerful V16 with the powerful Rimac battery, this car I thought was insane in terms of speed and electric torque, it was the strength of combustion cars, this car was a work of art
Wouldn’t end well for him. He’s the best in the position he is now. Can’t imagine a perfectionist like him in mass marketing shit ass vw‘s, skodas, cupras or other shit like that. As a ceo you‘d be forced to make compromises in terms of selling cars and that wouldn’t end up for good in his great vision (just my point, idk might be a hot take)
Never, he can only exercise his vision in small niche luxury car brands like this and bring us incredible products like this car and the Nevera. Mass marketing would be the end of him and his passion imo.
This car looks amazing! I love the lines of the body...elegant but yet it looks powerful too. Usually, those two are hard to incorporate together into an automobile. That interior is drop dead gorgeous! The steering wheel and dashboard symmetry has been masterfully designed. That analog dashboard is perfect (a nod to Pagani) for the interior's minimalism design. This car is a mechanical marvel but also a work of art.👍🏽
Oh My Goodness! Mate Rimac is a genuine, 100% genius. I'm thinking that if you were wealthy enough to own a Veyron, you would be unable to resist subsequent Bugatti models, and there is no way in hell that a Veyron owner could resist this Tourbillon. The lines of the body are even more beautiful. The interior with that watch mechanism instrument display are sublime. This is hands down the most beautiful car I have ever seen. I feel lucky to live a world that has Mate Rimac who creates automobile works of art that just happen to be as functional as they are stunningly good looking. Thank you Mate. You have made me happy to be alive.
Thank goodness Bugatti were smart enough to let Matte run the show... He truly gets how to design and make cars.. Even the smallest details he makes the right choice... And he's humble enough to admit mistakes which end ears him to all us car enthusiasts... Keep em coming Matte...
So proud of Mate Rimac. You can tell he’s very passionate about what he does and has such a deep understanding of both the engineering and the business. He and his team really know how to make engineering art. Doing Croatia, Bugatti, and all automotive enthusiasts true justice. Thank you Mate and Carwow
I can listen to this CEO all day all along about his knowledge of cars and expertise, there aren't any CEOs like Mate who will ever have a vision like he has for Bugatti.
The fact that he decided to go again from zero for this car instead of taking the chassis of the Chiron or the Nevera is truly incredible. Hats off to Mate Rimac
It is respectable how Mate Rimac doesn't overshadow Bugatti. He has his own Hypersport car brand that competes with Bugatti, but he focuses equally on both Bugatti and Rimac. Beautiful car, well done Bugatti!
Brilliant move hiring him as the CEO, and you can already see the improvement. Gotta love his honesty too when mentioning other brands. I'm so happy about all the analog stuff and the naturally aspirated engine. Let's go!
"This car will be around for longer than we are, so in 50yrs, in 100yrs, this has to be interesting and beautiful. And screens won't " - Mate Rimac *Mic drop 🎤 *

Meanwhile Porsche: Goes electric > Still keeps the turbo without going n/a (easier to cope with regulations) You're right, petrolheads and car enthusiasts are not in charge of motorsport companies anymore. They're just rather all in for numbers and marketing
@@Anti-FreedomD.P.R.ofSouthKoreaPorsche is a high volume production brand. Mate even said that the volume and mileage will be so low on these cars that it wouldn't even matter.
Mate is actually one of the coolest guys ever! Every company should dream of such CEO - lovely, humble, smart AF and the biggest fan of his own product. Love that guy. This world needs more Mates.
Two things are clear to me, Bugatti doesn’t design cars, it designs art in motion and the other is that right now this is the best car channel on TH-cam
Absolutely fantastic. Mate has the design mentality of Horacio Pagani, and the engineering mentality of Koenigsegg. Can't wait to see this car in action
I can't lie, that car is drop dead gorgeous, and one of the few times, I've watched a hypercar reveal and thought, If I had the money, this car would be worth every penny and I'd need to have one in my garage. Also Mate is a real one, who genuinely gets it.
@@hansihinterweltler1198 I made my previous comment before I watched the video & now that I have seen it, I get it but it's still too OTT for a Bugatti imo.
No disrespect, but not really. You get 800+hp from Ferrari v12's and 1000hp from Aston Martin Valkerie V12, and both are around 2L displacement less-and ofc 4 cylinders less. If anything, I guess they probably de-tuned that v16 for more reliability
Detuned ICE and detuned the E motors as well (battery limited). It's a win-win. Surely some owners would unlock its full potential and remove the limiters.
Maybe one of the rare human auto ceos that doesn’t speak like a PR robot. Love this guy. Bugatti as always the absolute pinnacle of beauty and engineering.
Rimac seems like such a good and genuine figure in the car scene. Wow. I've never been more impressed by someone being so passionate about the customer and creation of a car worthy for them.
@@bekeneel I think the fact that it's unique is why they're not putting a turbo charger in there. I'm not an engineering expert so I might be wrong here, but from what I've seen, usually cars (besides F1) with naturally aspirated engine can rev higher than cars with forced induction, at least for cars that are on similar level, like 911 GT3 RS vs 911 GT2 RS. The fact that we have a Bugatti with an engine that massive and can rev higher than a 911 GT3 RS is what makes it special.
@@kyro1313 guess you can think of the EV motors as a quicker replacement for the turbos, instant on tap power boost vs spooling up.. so why have turbos? anyhow that's how I see it..
This guy is such an enthusiast, it’s great to see people with this passion in charge of this type of art. What a nice guy, can’t wait to see this thing drive.
this is incredible, this guy comes from an EV background and he still had the intellectual wherewithal to recognize the beauty and power of ICE! Absolute gigasigmachad
What are your qualifications to make you somebody educated and knowledgeable enough to have some actual validity in your statement? "this car will be talked about in 50 - 100 years!" How old are you? "Pure engineering." Uhm, allow me rephrase that. How. Old. Are. You? "Pure engineering" What does a clown like you know about that?? Who says "pure engineering" anyway??
Mate is the only person in the world capable of leading Bugatti's development in this new era of motor engineering. what an amazing down to earth guy the car looks amazing
That "NA" V 16 is a freaking freak of nature!!! The natural aspiration has it sounding like nothing I've ever heard of..You can't get that kind of sounding engine with turbos. Hats off to everyone that brought this beast to life.
Still unbelievable, that the T50 weighs only half as much as the Bugatti, revs to 13k rpm, has 3 seats and a lot more luggage space and still goes 400kph and all that for half the price 😱
@@davidherene6365 it absolutely would with the right gearing. It’s simple math: it has a better engine than the F1 (more hp, rpm and about the same torque) the F1 did 392kph so the T50 would go well over 400. But like Gordon Murray said, this car isn’t build for top speed. Why so toxic, can’t handle someone who has a different opinion?

And he’s also fraud
Same also to Panoz.
yeh he also EV guy
@@crysis3ify you are mom
20:17 that's some crazy honesty from the CEO there!
Mate Rimac is a rare combination of humility and knowledge mixed as a petrolhead, explaining complex things very simple way....this guy will be a legend....credit to you Matt Watson for bringing this type of content to the public, you are one of the best in this buiseness....cheers🍻
Man, I was pretty skeptical back then when Bugatti was sold to Rimac i thought Bugatti was going full electric but then they dropped the V16 and now seeing the full package i'm stoked!
That Rimac dude is a real Chad i love him!
He made an even better Bugatti for petrolheads (i know, no Petrolhead is going to have this much money, so it is just a wet dream for us) N/A V16, switchable electric support or hybrid system, few screens because not attractive in 50 years XD
Nice love this dude! Someone should give him a hug from me...
I shouldn't have never been worried!
Bugatti is in good Hands!
Its not really sold to Rimac but rather they merged. VW did not know what to do with Bugatti, this way they kept it in in VW Group but also in a way added Rimac to VW Group as independent hyper car section.
it combined the powerful V16 with the powerful Rimac battery, this car I thought was insane in terms of speed and electric torque, it was the strength of combustion cars, this car was a work of art
I hope Mate ends up as a CEO for the whole VAG group …he is a petrolhead and he did the Bugatti justice !
Wouldn’t end well for him. He’s the best in the position he is now. Can’t imagine a perfectionist like him in mass marketing shit ass vw‘s, skodas, cupras or other shit like that. As a ceo you‘d be forced to make compromises in terms of selling cars and that wouldn’t end up for good in his great vision (just my point, idk might be a hot take)
Never, he can only exercise his vision in small niche luxury car brands like this and bring us incredible products like this car and the Nevera. Mass marketing would be the end of him and his passion imo.
@@Max-lz5ymthat's a completely fair point tbh
@@Max-lz5ymYou seem to forget that Piëch was perfectionist as well and he is responsible for what VW achieved.
glad he will turn all the range EV soon
This car looks amazing! I love the lines of the body...elegant but yet it looks powerful too. Usually, those two are hard to incorporate together into an automobile. That interior is drop dead gorgeous! The steering wheel and dashboard symmetry has been masterfully designed. That analog dashboard is perfect (a nod to Pagani) for the interior's minimalism design. This car is a mechanical marvel but also a work of art.👍🏽
Oh My Goodness! Mate Rimac is a genuine, 100% genius. I'm thinking that if you were wealthy enough to own a Veyron, you would be unable to resist subsequent Bugatti models, and there is no way in hell that a Veyron owner could resist this Tourbillon. The lines of the body are even more beautiful. The interior with that watch mechanism instrument display are sublime. This is hands down the most beautiful car I have ever seen. I feel lucky to live a world that has Mate Rimac who creates automobile works of art that just happen to be as functional as they are stunningly good looking. Thank you Mate. You have made me happy to be alive.
Thank goodness Bugatti were smart enough to let Matte run the show... He truly gets how to design and make cars.. Even the smallest details he makes the right choice... And he's humble enough to admit mistakes which end ears him to all us car enthusiasts... Keep em coming Matte...
Mate*
So proud of Mate Rimac. You can tell he’s very passionate about what he does and has such a deep understanding of both the engineering and the business. He and his team really know how to make engineering art.
Doing Croatia, Bugatti, and all automotive enthusiasts true justice.
Thank you Mate and Carwow
I can listen to this CEO all day all along about his knowledge of cars and expertise, there aren't any CEOs like Mate who will ever have a vision like he has for Bugatti.
Mate Rimac is the Tony Stark of the people 😂
What about space karen? 🤡🚀
@@larryc1616Elon doesn't have the charisma
YOU BEAT ME TO IT!!!
Musk is Edison, Rimac is Iron Man himself.
@@Nice_Person7379Nah dude, dont do Edison like that. Edison was a cool dude fr.
@@jjosa52i mean, both were crude businessmen who took credit from others. At least they accomplished alot so I cant throw too much shade at them.
The fact that he decided to go again from zero for this car instead of taking the chassis of the Chiron or the Nevera is truly incredible. Hats off to Mate Rimac
It is respectable how Mate Rimac doesn't overshadow Bugatti.
He has his own Hypersport car brand that competes with Bugatti, but he focuses equally on both Bugatti and Rimac.
Beautiful car, well done Bugatti!
Brilliant move hiring him as the CEO, and you can already see the improvement. Gotta love his honesty too when mentioning other brands. I'm so happy about all the analog stuff and the naturally aspirated engine. Let's go!
"This car will be around for longer than we are, so in 50yrs, in 100yrs, this has to be interesting and beautiful. And screens won't " - Mate Rimac
*Mic drop 🎤 *
Mate Rimac is such a petrolhead. He just loves cars and you can feel it in the way how he speaks about the design process. Awesome
Not a petrolhead, he's a car guy. He knows when to sling an EV like the nevera and when to sling something like this.
i thought he is EV expert
@@Lemingtona-x5g He is also that.
@@thedumbconspirator4956 Actually, he told me that himself when I visited their factory many years ago
he is the first to make Bugatti plug in hybrid
I love how he is bringing analog back into the car. Having this old school idea in a futuristic style. Beautiful car
I feel like, Mate Rimac is the perfect Person to keep both Companies alive in their own way. Rimac as the crazy Stuff Company, and Bugatti as the Company, which does great Carftsmanship. Absolutely enjoing this car. Thanks Mate!❤❤❤
New favourite company CEO. what a ledgend.
Him and koenigsegg are definitely the top 2. Which is where is up to you.
yeh he gonna bring out more EV
The amount of research and engineering that goes into the Bugatti's is insane. This Croatian man is just icing on the cake.
Mate is one of the coolest CEO and car enthusiast i've ever seen. Bro is so glad and happy explaining each and everything to Mat. Bugatti has a great future ahead!!
An incredible piece of machinery and art. I can’t say enough about Mate Rimac. He’s an absolutely brilliant young man who’s a car guy at heart. Such a bright future ahead.
He is 36 years old.
Just think about that.... What a talented young man!
What a legend.
Don't make start thinking what I'm doing with my life please😂
yeh all he does is make electric vehicles
@@Adelade500do more then. Literally anyone can do amazing things. Stop consuming content 100%. Go to zero content. No movies, tv shows, social media.

Getting actual petrolheads as CEOs that understand what every billionaire's garage and every kid's wallpaper requires is epic.
Meanwhile Porsche: Goes electric > Still keeps the turbo without going n/a (easier to cope with regulations)
You're right, petrolheads and car enthusiasts are not in charge of motorsport companies anymore. They're just rather all in for numbers and marketing
@@Anti-FreedomD.P.R.ofSouthKoreaPorsche is a high volume production brand. Mate even said that the volume and mileage will be so low on these cars that it wouldn't even matter.

@@Lemingtona-x5g he IS NOT EV guy!!! Educate yourself on a guy first....
Mate is actually one of the coolest guys ever! Every company should dream of such CEO - lovely, humble, smart AF and the biggest fan of his own product. Love that guy. This world needs more Mates.
The Aussies agree with you mate
he will be the main guy to push EV
@@Lemingtona-x5g And that will be awesome! More EVs is better.
That CEO really has a good grasp and really understands the product
Two things are clear to me, Bugatti doesn’t design cars, it designs art in motion and the other is that right now this is the best car channel on TH-cam
I clicked for the Bugatti, stayed for Mate and Matt's wonderful chemistry
Absolutely fantastic. Mate has the design mentality of Horacio Pagani, and the engineering mentality of Koenigsegg. Can't wait to see this car in action
I absolutely love this comment. Exactly what I was thinking!
@@thehabeeeeeb great EV battery pack on the car
Probably the most beautiful car I have ever seen, and the fastest WOW Totally Breathtaking ❤
I can't lie, that car is drop dead gorgeous, and one of the few times, I've watched a hypercar reveal and thought, If I had the money, this car would be worth every penny and I'd need to have one in my garage.
Also Mate is a real one, who genuinely gets it.
Totally the opposite here. The design is underwhelming to me overall & over done at the rear😕
@@omerta2002 yes the rear looks ugly
@@hansihinterweltler1198 I made my previous comment before I watched the video & now that I have seen it, I get it but it's still too OTT for a Bugatti imo.
great to see its plug in hybrid 3 electric motors
@@omerta2002rear looks so aggressive it’s looks great .
I think this is the only CEO that can explain everything from building to selling cars. He's very intelligent man. What a gifted human being🥰
Naturaly aspirated 1000hp v16??? Holy shit this man is actually insane
No disrespect, but not really. You get 800+hp from Ferrari v12's and 1000hp from Aston Martin Valkerie V12, and both are around 2L displacement less-and ofc 4 cylinders less. If anything, I guess they probably de-tuned that v16 for more reliability
Gordon Murray V12 has 170 bhp per litre. The bugatti 120.
Feels like a batman spec
The reason is reliability it can definitely push more than just that
Detuned ICE and detuned the E motors as well (battery limited). It's a win-win. Surely some owners would unlock its full potential and remove the limiters.
That CEO just set a massive standard on how to CEO properly
I can sense he’s only getting started. Good job
Maybe one of the rare human auto ceos that doesn’t speak like a PR robot. Love this guy. Bugatti as always the absolute pinnacle of beauty and engineering.
Rimac seems like such a good and genuine figure in the car scene. Wow. I've never been more impressed by someone being so passionate about the customer and creation of a car worthy for them.
Bugatti delivered! NA, Analog Speedometer, nice looking car. dayum
But why not put turbos on that unique V16? Cuz the EV needs space & weight too instead..
@@bekeneel I think the fact that it's unique is why they're not putting a turbo charger in there. I'm not an engineering expert so I might be wrong here, but from what I've seen, usually cars (besides F1) with naturally aspirated engine can rev higher than cars with forced induction, at least for cars that are on similar level, like 911 GT3 RS vs 911 GT2 RS. The fact that we have a Bugatti with an engine that massive and can rev higher than a 911 GT3 RS is what makes it special.
@@bekeneelYou can't fit the turbos and ev motors and a battery at the same time
@@bekeneel To offer naturally aspirated experience if you want it? Can't exactly disable turbos, while you can do that with EV motors.
@@kyro1313 guess you can think of the EV motors as a quicker replacement for the turbos, instant on tap power boost vs spooling up.. so why have turbos? anyhow that's how I see it..
This guy is such an enthusiast, it’s great to see people with this passion in charge of this type of art. What a nice guy, can’t wait to see this thing drive.
These two guy's standing on their knees on tile floor for like an hours is amazing just to talk about the interior of a car

He is a living legend

Wow! This CEO guy is amazingly enthusiastic, smart and respectable to the brand and customers.
To say I'm impressed with Bugatti is a COMPLETE UNDERSTATEMENT
Man the ceo looks so excited to tell everything about this piece of art.
2:57 I love his response on not going for electric and just push the the limits on the engine for the car and going for a V16, love it.
That "NA" V 16 is a freaking freak of nature!!! The natural aspiration has it sounding like nothing I've ever heard of..You can't get that kind of sounding engine with turbos. Hats off to everyone that brought this beast to life.
"How much space do yiu have in the front bonnet?" Mate: "I don't know." Lol, legend.
favorite bit
best bit plug in hybrid with 3 motors
Matt is such a good interviewer, it was so enjoyable to listen to the two of them just talk about the car
Putting Mate in charge has to be one of the best personnel decisions in the automotive industry of the last decade.
17:44 forgot about these doors 🚜🔥🔥
Just when I thought I'd never want a car more than the T.50...Bugatti unveils this. Incredible design and engineering.
Still unbelievable, that the T50 weighs only half as much as the Bugatti, revs to 13k rpm, has 3 seats and a lot more luggage space and still goes 400kph and all that for half the price 😱
t.50 is ugly
@@Captain_bl_007 no it doesnt lol nice cheapskate move though
@@davidherene6365 all that battery adds weight to this Bugatti
@@davidherene6365 it absolutely would with the right gearing. It’s simple math: it has a better engine than the F1 (more hp, rpm and about the same torque) the F1 did 392kph so the T50 would go well over 400. But like Gordon Murray said, this car isn’t build for top speed.
Why so toxic, can’t handle someone who has a different opinion?
He knows this car inside out! I'm genuinely impressed watching this
Mate Rimac Christian von Koenigsegg and Horacio Pagani are the goats of the automotive world
Don’t forget Gordon Murray!

holy shit that steering wheel + the instrument "panel" are fucking AWESOME
