The True Cost of Owning A Bugatti Veyron

If you want to get an oil change and some standard service, which is typically the cheapest work you can get a garage to do, you’re looking at about $21,000 dollars. Yes, that’s just for an oil change and maybe a tire rotation. Since we are on the topic of tires, you’re also going to be paying a lot for your Veyron’s. The Bugatti Veyron uses very specific tires, and at top-speed, those tires only last about 15 minutes before needing to be replaced. Want a new set? Get ready to pay $42,000 dollars for new tires. Oh and the wheels also need to be replaced entirely after every other tire change. They will run you about $69,000 for a set. Bugatti also encourages that you replace the tires and wheels a few times throughout the year. So if you get an oil change, replace the tires, and then replace the wheels/tires for a Veyron in one year, you’re looking at $132,000 in just parts (excluding labor). Hopefully your transmission will never break on your Veyron, because it costs around $120,000 alone to replace. The Veyron also only gets about 15mpg on the highway, so you will be frequently visiting gas stations and obviously you have to use the most premium form of gasoline to fill it up. Based on data from FuelEconomy.gov, the average Veyron costs $83 dollars to fill up and the estimated annual fuel cost is around $4,700 dollars. Comparatively, a standard 2014 Honda Accord has an estimated annual fuel cost of just $1,450.
