The Bugatti Type 41 Royale is the largest production car ever built. A car that is nearly 20 feet long it weighed over 1.5 tons. With a drum brake size that was 18” in diameter the 24” wheels were the largest ever made to fit this car. The engine was a monstrous 12,763 cc that was mounted inside a hood that was 5 feet long.

Only 6 were produced in 1928 out of which two remained with the manufacturers. One that came up in an auction house in 1987 was purchased by an anonymous Japanese for about US$ 7.5 million. Today the same car is worth over US$ 10 million.

This car was also known as "Coupe Nepolean".
