The dealership shared images of the hypercar on social media, describing it as the “most expensive car in West Africa” and placing its reported value at ₦9 billion.

The arrival comes weeks after Dubai-based luxury car customisation company, Venuum, unveiled the customised Bugatti Chiron created for the Grammy-winning artiste. Venuum described the project as the world’s first widebody Bugatti Chiron.

The vehicle is based on the Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport and features several personalised details, including “Burna Boy” branding on the carbon-fibre rear wing.

Sadiq Aminu, the CEO of Abuja Car Limited, said the vehicle is worth about ₦9 billion, describing the deal as one of the biggest luxury car transactions in West Africa.

The Bugatti Chiron VXX Special Edition is powered by an 8.0-litre quad-turbocharged W16 engine that produces 1,500 horsepower. The hypercar can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in about 2.3 seconds and has a top speed of 261 mph.

Following its arrival at the Abuja Car showroom, the vehicle is expected to be transported to Lagos, where it will join Burna Boy’s collection of luxury cars.

His garage already includes vehicles such as a Lamborghini Revuelto, Ferrari 812 GTS, McLaren Senna, Rolls-Royce Cullinan, and Mercedes-Maybach models.
