Bugatti may have been founded in France but the heritage of the company comes from a clan of Italian artists. The company was founded in Molsheim, France as a manufacturer of high performance racing automobiles by Italian-born Ettore Bugatti. The elegant, individual, and independent character of Bugatti automobiles is reflected in the brand logo which is a pearl-framed oval sporting 60 pearls and features the stylized initials of the brand’s founder Ettore Bugatti, and the elegantly simple Bugatti word mark that has adorned each Bugatti model since 1909. Bugattis cars were the embodiment of light construction and unmatched technical aestheticism. Jean Bugattis bodywork designs had a lasting impact on the style of the 1930s. In 1998 German car maker Volkswagen Group purchased the rights to manufacture cars under the Bugatti marque and since then have revived the company by producing limited production exclusive sports cars. In 2011 the company celebrated 100 years of Bugatti tradition.
