2. Bugatti La Voiture Noire: $18,700,000
In 2019, Bugatti made a brilliant branding decision when rolling out their latest supercar. Instead of a flashy introduction and name geared to thrill, the French manufacturer opted for a restrained, minimalistic, and instantly iconic title: La Voiture Noire. The Black Car.
No other description necessary.
Although, going into details doesn’t interrupt the awe of this gorgeous vehicle with a sky-high price: It’s got a carbon-fibre shell that’s sculpted by hand, a quad-turbo W16 8.10L engine that produces 1500 horsepower, and an acceleration of 0-100kph (0-60mph) in 2.4 seconds.
Its top speed is 420 kph (260 mph), and its overall performance is precision-engineered by an auto house famous for producing the most powerful cars in the world for decades on end.
In 2019, it was the most expensive new car available for purchase. Two years have elapsed, and no one has yet released an expensive luxury car geared to knock La Voiture Noire off that high pedestal. It wins over the price for the most expensive modern car on our list for the second year in a row..
