The Bugatti EB 218 concept was one of the stars of the
1999 Geneva Motor Show. The concept was a creation of
Giorgetto Giugiaro and ItalDesign, who developed the EB
218 sedan concept from their Bugatti EB 118 coupe concept
displayed the previous year.

The 6.3 litre W18 engine of the EB 218
developed 555 horsepower. |

The Bugatti EB 218 concept was a luxury four-door sedan
with subtle, yet opulent styling and a innovative powerplant.
A lightweight aluminium space-frame was used for the chassis
and body. The exterior was finished in a pearlescent paint
called "Blu Notte Perlato".
The interior of the Bugatti EB 218 concept was, as expected,
a nice place to find yourself. It was trimmed in the finest
silk-finish leather and light walnut wood. The combination
of neutral colors and exquisite materials oozed a sense
of lavish indulgence.
Under the bodywork of the Bugatti EB 218 was a highly
advanced drivetrain which included a permanent four-wheel-drive
system, and a 6.3 litre W18 engine formed from three V6
engines mounted side-by-side in parallel. This unit produced
555 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque.
