Bugatti

Consumer Discretionary

Automobiles Ettore Bugatti was a French manufacturer of high-performance automobiles. The company was founded in 1909 in the then-German city of Molsheim, Alsace, by the Italian-born industrial designer Ettore Bugatti, and its cars were known for their design beauty and numerous race victories. Famous Bugatti automobiles include the Type 35 Grand Prix cars, the Type 41 Royale, the Type 57 Atlantic and the Type 55 sports car. The death of Ettore Bugatti in 1947 proved a severe blow to the marque, and the death of his son Jean in 1939 meant there was no successor to lead the factory. With no more than about 8,000 cars made, the company struggled financially and was purchased for its airplane parts business in 1963.
