Brand profile
Sports car manufacturer
Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. is a French sports car manufacturer based in Molsheim, Alsace. Volkswagen established it in 1998 as a subsidiary, and since November 2021 it has been part of Bugatti Rimac, a joint venture between Rimac Group and Porsche.
The original Bugatti marque was founded in 1909 in Molsheim, then part of the German Empire, by the Italian-born designer Ettore Bugatti. After his death in 1947 the company declined, and in 1987 the Italian entrepreneur Romano Artioli bought the brand name and revived it.

Design context
Bugatti states that the red of the badge stands for power and passion, the white for elegance and nobility and the black for excellence and courage, and that by legend the 60 dots represent pearls or threads in the Art Nouveau manner. According to the company, the appearance of the badge changed only slightly over the years.
It's Nice That reported that the EB logo, based on Ettore Bugatti's initials, was kept unchanged in the 2022 identity.
