Bugatti Loses $6.27 Million Per Vehicle Sold

In fact it’s the Volkswagen group that loses this amount each time a Bugatti Veyron is sold.

This is further evidence that several luxury manufacturers owe their existence to the fact that they depend on other auto giants. For example:
- Ferrari and Maserati belonging to the Italian Fiat group;
- Rolls Royce is part of the German automaker BMW;
- Bentley and Lamborghini are managed by Volkswagen.
