GENEVA — European car makers may have trouble selling $20,000 cars, but Bugatti is having no problems with $250,000 models.
The Italian car company unveiled the EB112, its latest sports sedan, this month at a Geneva car show.
The 12-cylinder, four-wheel-drive sedan accelerates from 0 m.p.h. to 60 m.p.h. in 4.7 seconds and has a top speed of 186 m.p.h.
The EB112’s sticker price: $250,000. That includes a three-year maintenance contract covering technical upgrades, tune-ups, oil changes, tire changes and alignments.
“You only add gas,” said Mario Barbieri, vice chairman of Bugatti.
Orders for the EB112, which has a neoclassical design, have already begun to arrive.
“This will blow any car off the Autobahn in style,” one car dealer said.
