Engine output
Power comes from a Volkswagen-designed, 555 hp (414 kW) and 479 lb·ft (649 N·m), W18 engine. The EB118 W18 engine is composed of three banks of six cylinders with a sixty degree offset between each cylinder bank. In contrast, the W16 engine in Bugatti's first production car, the 2005 Veyron EB 16.4 features two banks of eight cylinders in VR configuration. The EB118 features permanent all wheel drive.
This same powertrain would be used later in both the 1999 EB218 and 1999 18/3 Chiron concepts.

The history of the legendary Bugatti brand started at the beginning of the last century. Ettore Bugatti built his first automobile in 1909 in Molsheim, Alsace. A high level of quality workmanship and a daring design for its time corresponded to Ettore Bugatti's principle: 'Nothing is too beautiful, nothing is too expensive'.
The first Bugattis built 91 years ago were just as much a sensation as the four design studies at the turn of the Millennium. Will Bugatti make more extravagant vehicles? How many? The specialist press and enthusiasts are making the most adventurous speculations. Bugatti will produce automobiles in the future as they did in the past: A total of 7,950 from 1909 to 1956 and approximately 50 per year in the future. It is planned, as of 2003, to build luxury sports cars by hand in the newly-constructed factory in Molsheim. Tradition is coupled with the modern day, the Bugatti philosophy with state-of the art technology. The basis for this is the renovation work on Chateau St. Jeans in Molsheim, purchased by Volkswagen in 1999, as the location to provide customer service, just as in the days of Ettore Bugatti.
EB 218 is the designation of the second prototype launched by Bugatti after Volkswagen acquired the marque. Its harmonic unification of technology and aesthetics sets new standards. The Bugatti EB 218 fulfils all demands which could possibly be made on a car, including a range of high comfort features. It gives the Bugatti name a new point of emphasis. The primary features of the Bugatti EB 218 follow on from the design and technical specifications of the EB 118 coupé study, which was produced by Giorgetto Giugiaro / ItalDesign under contract from Volkswagen, and which has been further developed to make this unmistakable four-door saloon.
The EB 218 transforms the dimensions and style of the classical Bugatti automobile into a modern setting. This orientation towards the terse lines of the touring cars traditional to the Bugatti marque make this saloon unmistakable.
The model name Bugatti EB 218 refers to the 18-cylinder engine, the first of its kind to be used in a passenger vehicle. This engine, which was developed at Volkswagen, has three rows of six-cylinder banks which are joined in the shape of a 'W'.
Technology and design merge together in the Bugatti EB 218. A swage line runs from the radiator over the bonnet and is continued over the roof of the saloon. It is interrupted by the rear window and continues at the lower edge of the window. A spoiler, which extends automatically, is also located here. Aluminium space-frame technology has been used for the production of the body. The exterior aluminium cladding is finished in pearlescent 'Blu Notte Perlato'.
The harmonious lines of the body are continued in the comfortable and elegant interior. The instruments are oval in shape and the instrument panel is framed in the finest leather. The multi-function display with navigation system is concealed underneath the clock, which can be moved up by an electric drive. The buttons for sequential gear changing are located on the steering wheel. The elegant appeal of the interior is underlined by the use of light walnut and well-balanced metal features. The front seats have electrically adjustable head restraints which bear the EB emblem. The rear seats are particularly generous and have foot rests.
