Historical Background:
Produced between 1931 and 1934, the Bugatti Type 50 represents the pinnacle of automotive excellence in the interwar period. Designed by Jean Bugatti, son of company founder Ettore Bugatti, it is instantly recognizable for its sleek lines, long hood, and signature grille.
It was powered by a 5-liter straight-eight engine with twin overhead camshafts, delivering around 225 horsepower and reaching speeds over 160 km/h — outstanding performance for its time.
The Type 50 was not only a technical achievement but also a rolling work of art, with many bodies crafted by France’s top coachbuilders. Today, it remains one of the most sought-after collector’s cars, embodying Bugatti’s luxury, power, and refinement.
