This Bugatti Baby II is a Vitesse model and is #192 of a planned run of 500 ¾-scale replicas of the Bugatti Type 35 Grand Prix produced by The Little Car Company of Bicester, England, under license from Bugatti. The car features carbon-fiber bodywork finished in blue over a tubular steel chassis, and power comes from a 10-kW electric motor mated to a direct-drive transmission with reverse. Equipment includes a regenerative braking system, a hollow front axle, friction disc shock absorbers, 16″ alloy wheels, headlights, an adjustable pedal box, a four-spoke wood-rimmed steering wheel, an engine-turned dash, and black leather upholstery. This Bugatti Baby II was purchased by the owner in 2023 and is now offered on dealer consignment in Roseville, California, with a presentation box, removable roll bars, a charger, a cover, and a bill of sale.

The Bugatti Baby II was developed by The Little Car Company and Bugatti in 2019 following the success of the automaker’s 500 Bugatti Baby models it built to celebrate its 110th anniversary. This Vitesse model example features carbon-fiber bodywork finished in French Racing Blue, and equipment includes hood and tail louvers, headlights, a rear-view mirror, a horseshoe grille with a ¾ scale Sterling silver enamel Bugatti badge, a leather hood tie-down, and a faux hood filler cap housing a charging connection point.

The 16″ alloy eight-spoke wheels are mounted with 3.50–16 bias-ply tires. A matching spare wheel and tire are mounted on the left side of the body. The car features a tubular steel chassis with a hollow front axle and friction disc shock absorbers. Stopping power is provided by regenerative brakes at all four corners. Removable roll bars are fitted.

The cockpit features a bench trimmed in pleated black upholstery with matching ingress points. A matching removable bolster is fitted, and the car features an adjustable pedal box.

The four-spoke wood-rimmed steering wheel sits at the right side of the cabin and fronts an engine-turned dash panel housing an 80-km/h speedometer, a battery level indicator, a power gauge, and a clock. Controls for the horn, lights, and gear selector are also present. A digital gauge attached to the bulkhead within the engine bay displays the battery state of charge, temperature, and odometer.

A Bugatti-branded plaque bolted to the dash lists the car as #192 of 500.

Power comes from a 10-kW electric motor that draws from a 2.8-kWh “long-range” battery pack and is mated to a direct-drive transmission and a limited-slip differential. The car features a one-kW, 1.3-horsepower “novice” mode, a four-kW, 5.4-horsepower “adult” mode, and a delimited 10-kW “Speed Key” mode. As a US-market model, the top speed is governed to just under 19mph.

Certified Factory Record and a Declaration of Conformity documents are included together with a presentation box.
