Although Mate Rimac made a name for himself with electric hypercars, he's a true petrolhead who loves combustion engines as much as we do. The old guard at the Volkswagen Group wanted the Chiron replacement to be fully electric, but he insisted on having an ICE setup at the heart of the Tourbillon. His efforts to keep the gas engine alive paid off. A new video published by the Bugatti Rimac CEO allows us to hear the glorious 8.3-liter engine.
