Also known as the Type 41, was one of the most opulent and exclusive cars ever produced. Only seven were ever built, and each one was tailored to the specific desires of its owner. The Royale featured a 12.7-liter straight-eight engine, which was exceptionally large and powerful for its time. Jean Bugatti, the son of the company's founder Ettore Bugatti, was heavily involved in the design and engineering of the Royale, showcasing his innovative vision and craftsmanship. Despite its intended market of royalty and the ultra-wealthy, the car's commercial success was limited due to the economic difficulties of the Great Depression, making it an even rarer and more iconic automobile today.
