Next Bugatti Hypercar Expected to Run on Rimac’s Solid-State Battery

A major update is coming as Bugatti prepares a new hypercar powered by Rimac’s next-level battery tech

Bugatti is getting ready for something big again. The company is known for building cars that feel almost impossible, and now it looks like the next hypercar will take things even further. Reports suggest that Bugatti plans to use a solid-state battery developed by Rimac. This is a huge deal because solid-state batteries are lighter, safer and can store more energy than the batteries we see today.

Rimac has been working on this technology for years. Their team says the development stage is now very advanced. They expect these batteries to reach the market before the end of the decade. The interesting part is that the very first car to use this new battery is expected to be a new Bugatti model planned for around 2030.

This next car will arrive after the Tourbillon, which Bugatti recently introduced. The Tourbillon has a massive V16 engine combined with a hybrid setup. It will stay in production until 2029. The timing lines up well. When the Tourbillon completes its run, Bugatti will be ready to reveal something fresh. And this time, the focus seems to be on stronger electrification with much better performance.

We still do not know if the new hypercar will be fully electric or if Bugatti will choose a new type of hybrid. But the decision to use a solid-state battery clearly shows that the company wants more power, better efficiency and a lighter setup. This is exactly what these batteries can deliver.

Mate Rimac once said that Bugatti would not launch an EV within ten years. Many people now believe he was pointing toward this 2030 target. With changing rules across the world and bigger competition in high-performance electric cars, Bugatti wants to stay ahead.

Whatever Bugatti reveals, it is clear that Rimac’s new solid-state battery will play a major role in shaping the next chapter.
