Bugatti extends Veyron and Chiron warranty with Passeport Tranquillité

MOLSHEIM (France): Like any car, the Bugatti Veyron and Chiron will need regular service and maintenance to stay at peak performance.

Bugatti has introduced the Passeport Tranquillité service programme,designed to cover vehicle life after the end of the Bugatti-provided standard warranty period.

This means Customers can be assured that they will continue to have access to the services that will keep their 1,000hp+ Veyron and Chiron models well maintained and in peak condition.

It includes one service per year with an official Bugatti service partner. Additional planned elements will be the premium roadside recovery service and a Bugatti-branded car care kit featuring a wide range of cleaning and detailing materials.

The Passeport Tranquillité is assigned to the Bugatti vehicle, rather than the customer, so the plan will pass onto the new driver if ever the hyper sports car is sold. This can potentially add to the value of the model while also giving the buying customer extra peace of mind that official Bugatti technicians have maintained their Veyron or Chiron.

All Bugatti models joining the Passeport Tranquillité plan must first pass a thorough 85-point inspection by a Bugatti service partner.

Although the previous Veyron Loyalty Maintenance Programme is no longer available for purchase, existing contracts will remain valid until the original service contract period expires or all applicable services are used.

The Passeport Tranquillité Veyron service programme can be split over a two- or four-year plan to best suit the customer and their own unique requirements. Both options include one service per year performed by officially trained Bugatti technicians, covering the requirement for the Veyron to undergo a biennial service, estimated at around 14 hours, and a service taking around 32 hours to complete in alternating years.

What is more, the Veyron customers’ plan provides the choice of "Active" or "Collector" plans, with the programme tailored to meet the needs of their driving habits.

Bugatti said the highly designed, era-defining Veyron model might now form part of a collection, rather than being driven regularly. But even hyper sports cars that record a minimal distance every year require servicing, in order to deliver that incredible Bugatti performance whenever required.

The "Collector" option provides high quality service and maintenance for Veyron models that do not exceed 200km a year, a plan tailored for reduced activity, while the "Active" profile caters to frequent drivers. Both options ensure Bugatti drivers can turn the key and enjoy their prized Veyron at any time.

The Passeport Tranquillité Chiron programme is set for four years, designed to reflect the Chiron’s specific service intervals. The Chiron plan includes a service every year, taking into account the requirement for an annual "Low" service, taking up to 14 hours of workshop time, then a "Major" service every four years, completed in around 72 hours by highly skilled and officially trained Bugatti technicians.

Owners of multiple Bugatti models can tailor a Passeport Tranquillité package to meet their needs.

Customers are not fixed to a specific Bugatti Service Partner for the life of the Passeport Tranquillité plan. The new service plan has launched at all official Bugatti Service Partners in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, with a planned roll-out to cover North America in the summer of 2021.

“This exclusive new programme provides our customers with a complete sense of ‘peace of mind’ when it comes to the care and maintenance of their prized Bugatti Veyron or Chiron," said Bugatti Automobiles global aftersales business manager Trevor Hodgson-Phillips.

"We are tailoring the programme with the flexibility of plans and additional valued components, such as roadside recovery, providing the customer with the certainty of service and maintenance and in doing so providing the utmost peace of mind and tranquillité.”
