Carwow Car of the Year Awards 2026
Desirability Award
"Bugatti’s fabulous 8.0-litre W16 engine is taking a final bow with the ultra-exclusive Mistral - a car that’s impossible to look at without coveting it. It’s the very definition of exclusive - with just 99 ever to be built, it’s totally forbidden fruit. As a way to bid farewell to the W16 era of Bugatti - the one that began in 2005 with the iconic Veyron - the Mistral is a dream car." Mat Watson - Car Review Expert
