Fuel economy at a glance

These are the EPA's official ratings for the 2025 Bugatti Mistral. The numbers come from a standardised laboratory test cycle and are the same figures that appear on the window sticker of every new car. Real-world mileage varies with driving style, weather, fuel quality, and how heavily loaded the car is.

Combined MPG is a 55/45 weighted blend of the city and highway test cycles. The EPA uses it as the single number you can compare across the entire dataset, including hybrids and EVs (which use the equivalent MPGe figure).

Combined MPG 9 MPG
City MPG 8 MPG
Highway MPG 12 MPG
Annual fuel cost $7,700
Tailpipe CO₂ 943 g/mi
Fuel type Premium

How the 2025 Bugatti Mistral compares

The 2025 Bugatti Mistral returns 9 combined MPG. Cars in the Two Seaters class for the same model year average 19.8 MPG, which puts this car behind the class average by about 55%.

The most efficient car in the Two Seaters class for the 2025 model year is the Bugatti Rimac Nevera at 53 MPG. The bar chart below puts the Bugatti Mistral alongside the class best and the class average so you can see the full picture.

For broader context, the average new car of the 2025 model year (across all classes) returns 44.3 MPG. Larger vehicles pull the all-cars average down, so do not use that figure on its own to judge a small car or a hybrid. The full list of the most efficient cars of the 2025 model year is on its own page.

Annual fuel cost across driving patterns

The headline annual fuel cost the EPA publishes assumes 15,000 miles of driving per year and a fuel mix of 55% city and 45% highway. The dollar figure is calculated using the EPA's current reference price for premium gasoline, which is $4.61/gallon. EPA updates that reference periodically rather than tracking live pump prices, so treat it as a window-sticker estimate rather than today's pump number.

The table below scales the EPA's number to three common driving patterns. The combined MPG and the reference fuel price stay constant, only the annual mileage changes. To get a current-prices estimate, take your local gas price and multiply by 1666.7 gallons (the car's annual consumption at the rated MPG).

Driving pattern Estimated annual fuel cost
Light driver, 7,500 miles per year $3,850
Average driver, 15,000 miles per year $7,700
Heavy driver, 25,000 miles per year $12,833

Specifications

The 2025 Bugatti Mistral runs a 8-liter 16-cylinder turbocharged engine paired with a automatic (am-s7), sending power through all-wheel drive.

Engine, transmission, and drivetrain together drive most of the variation in fuel economy across trims. A larger engine moves the car with less effort but burns more fuel. A turbo lets a small engine punch above its weight, often without much MPG penalty. All-wheel drive adds traction and weight, and usually costs a couple of MPG compared with two-wheel drive of the same engine.

Common questions about the 2025 Bugatti Mistral

Quick answers to the questions people most often search for when looking up the 2025 Bugatti Mistral.

  • Is the 2025 Bugatti Mistral fuel efficient?
    Not particularly. The 2025 Bugatti Mistral returns 9 combined MPG, which trails the average car in the Two Seaters class for the same model year by about 55%.
  • What MPG does the 2025 Bugatti Mistral get?
    The EPA rates the 2025 Bugatti Mistral at 9 combined MPG, 8 MPG in city driving, and 12 MPG on the highway. Real-world numbers depend on your driving style, the weather, and how loaded the car is.
  • How much does it cost to fuel a 2025 Bugatti Mistral per year?
    The EPA estimates an annual fuel cost of $7,700 for the 2025 Bugatti Mistral. That figure assumes 15,000 miles of driving per year, a 55% city and 45% highway split, and the EPA's published average fuel price for the rated fuel grade.
  • Does the 2025 Bugatti Mistral require premium gas?
    Yes. The EPA lists the 2025 Bugatti Mistral as requiring premium gasoline. Running it on regular can reduce performance and may affect engine warranties, so it is not a recommended way to save at the pump.
  • How much CO₂ does the 2025 Bugatti Mistral emit?
    Tailpipe CO₂ emissions are 943 g/mi. Multiplied across a typical year of driving (15,000 miles) that works out to about 14,145 kilograms of CO₂.
  • What is the difference between the city and highway MPG of the 2025 Bugatti Mistral?
    City driving returns 8 MPG and highway driving returns 12 MPG, a gap of 4 MPG. The two figures are close enough that the car will hold its rated efficiency well across most driving patterns.
  • What engine is in the 2025 Bugatti Mistral?
    The 2025 Bugatti Mistral has a 8-liter 16-cylinder turbocharged engine (EPA description: SIDI).
  • What transmission and drivetrain does the 2025 Bugatti Mistral have?
    The 2025 Bugatti Mistral comes with a automatic (am-s7) transmission and all-wheel drive. All-wheel-drive variants typically read 1 to 3 MPG lower than the front-wheel-drive equivalent of the same engine, since the extra hardware adds weight and parasitic loss.
  • How does the 2025 Bugatti Mistral compare to the best car in its class?
    The most efficient car in the Two Seaters class for the 2025 model year is the Bugatti Rimac Nevera at 53 combined MPG. The Bugatti Mistral returns 9 MPG, a gap of 44 MPG. If you are comparing on fuel economy alone, the class leader is worth a look.
  • Does the 2025 Bugatti Mistral qualify for the gas guzzler tax?
    Yes. The federal Gas Guzzler Tax applies to passenger cars rated below 22.5 combined MPG, and the 2025 Bugatti Mistral falls below that threshold. The tax is paid by the manufacturer at the point of sale and is built into the sticker price, so you will not see a separate line item at the dealership. Pickup trucks and SUVs are exempt from this tax even when their efficiency is lower.
