This is the world’s most expensive new car

Meet the Bugatti La Voiture Noire. It's a tribute to the iconic Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic and the most expensive new car in the world.

As for the price, Bugatti claims its new La Voiture Noire costs €11 million, which translates into around R176 143 139 million. 

Based on the already ultra-luxurious Bugatti Chiron, the La Voiture Noire features a handcrafted carbon fibre body. It is powered by the same quad-turbo 8.0-litre W16 engine with 1 500 hp (1 118 kW) and 1 600 Nm. 

According to Bugatti boss, Stephan Winkelmann, the car is a one-off and has already been sold to a collector.
