Bugatti Vision GT Runs Out of Fuel and Struggles to Load onto Truck

Youtuber Marchettino traveled from Italy to see the show and film the latest supercars. But when the Vision Gran Turismo tried to leave, he shot more than he expected.

First, the car was running out of gas immediately after being cold-started. So someone at Bugatti had to run and get a canister of gas to put in there just in case. With tens of people watching that proved to be more embarrassing than expected.

Even though the body is sculpted with more attention to detail than Chiron itself. However, the powertrain isn't built to consumer levels of quality. After being driven very slooooowly around the fields, the Vision GT had to load onto one of those transparent trailers. However, a slight incline of the ramp proved too much for it.

We think it's a combination of the grabbing point from the gearbox with the lack of hill start assist. The driver tries revving the engine, but when you have 1,500 horsepower, it's only natural that the clutch doesn't want to cooperate.

We've seen similar incidents with other supercar concepts and the solution is almost always towing or having two or three big guys to push.

Something else we found interesting is the fact that the GT concept actually has license plates from the Middle East. But that's because it's been bought by the Saudi Arabia Prince Badr bin Saud, together with the world premiere Bugatti Chiron. We are talking about the very unit that drove onto the stage at this year's Geneva Motor Show. But what's a few million when Forges says you're worth $21 billion?
