Australian-Maltese entrepreneur and billionaire Adrian Portelli, widely known as “Mr Lambo”, has announced the acquisition of a Bugatti Tourbillon, one of only 250 units set to be produced worldwide.
Valued at approximately €3.8 million, the hypercar is the successor to the Bugatti Chiron.
Unveiled in June 2024, the Bugatti Tourbillon features a naturally aspirated 8.3-litre V16 engine paired with three electric motors, delivering a combined output of around 1,800 horsepower. This advanced hybrid system allows the car to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in under two seconds and reach a top speed of over 440km/h.

On Instagram, where he shared the news alongside photographs of the car, Mr Portelli teased followers with the caption: “What colour’s your Bugatti? Top secret. Tourbillon loading…”
