Mate Rimac, CEO of Bugatti Rimac, proposed an innovative idea for hypercar owners: having a fuel station at home.

According to Motor1.com, he suggests that these stations could use synthetic fuels, a more environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuels. This proposal aims to ease the lives of Bugatti customers, who are willing to invest millions in their vehicles.
In contrast to the market trend for electric cars, Rimac strongly believes in the future of combustion engines, but with a shift to synthetic fuels. He shared this vision during the Financial Times’ “Future of the Car” summit, mentioning the possibility of beautiful Bugatti fuel stations in owners’ residences.
Porsche, which holds a part of Bugatti Rimac, is already producing eFuel, a type of synthetic fuel, at a plant in Chile, with plans to significantly expand production in the coming years.
On June 20, Bugatti will launch a new hypercar with a completely new V-16 engine, demonstrating the brand’s confidence in combustion engines. Despite the future ban on new vehicles with harmful emissions in the European Union from 2035, Bugatti intends to continue using combustion engines, especially if powered by synthetic fuels.
This reflects the preference of high-end customers for traditional engines, as also demonstrated by other luxury brands continuing to invest in powerful and conventional engines.
