The '''Bugatti EB 118''' is the first [[concept car]] developed by [[Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S.|Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S]]. The 2-door [[coupé]] was presented at the 1998 [[Paris Motor Show]].<ref>{{Cite book|title = The Golden Milestone: Over 2500 Years of Italian Contributions to Civilization|last = Russell R.

The EB 118 is powered by a [[W18 engine]] and has permanent [[four wheel drive]].<br />
<br />
==Design==<br />
[[File:Paris - Retromobile 2012 - Bugatti type 57SC Atlantic - 1936 - 001.jpg|left|thumb|The Bugatti 57SC Atlantic, which inspired the design of the EB 118.]]<br />
The design of the car is intended to echo the 1931 [[Bugatti Type 50|Type 50]] and the [[Bugatti Atlantic|57SC Atlantic]]. The EB 118 has a longitudinal rib that echoes the Atlantic's longitudinal body seam.<ref name=italdesign>{{cite web |url=http://www.italdesign.it/project/bugatti-eb-118-eng |title=EB 118 |publisher=Italdesign Giugiaro S.p.A |work=italdesign.it |access-date=2012-07-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110708045049/http://www.italdesign.it/project/bugatti-eb-118-eng |archive-date=2011-07-08 }}</ref><br />
<br />
==Debut==<br />
Bugatti introduced the EB 118 at the 1998 [[Paris Auto Show]]. After its Paris debut, Bugatti displayed the EB 118 along with its four-door counterpart the [[Bugatti EB 218|EB 218]] at the [[Geneva Auto Show]] and the [[Tokyo Motor Show]] in 1999. The design was already production ready, but [[Bugatti Automobiles SAS|Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S.]] decided that they wanted to focus on a sports car based on the [[Bugatti 18/3 Chiron|18/3 Chiron]] concept car introduced in 1999, so that the EB 118 stayed a concept car and never made it into production.<br />
<br />
==Powertrain==<br />
Power comes from a [[Volkswagen]]-designed [[W18 engine]] which produces {{convert|555|hp|kW PS|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|479|lbft|Nm|0|abbr=on}} of torque. The EB 118 W18 engine has three banks of six cylinders with a sixty degree offset between each cylinder bank. The EB 118 also features permanent [[Four-wheel drive|four wheel drive]] taken from the Lamborghini Diablo VT.<br />
<br />
This same powertrain was later used in both the 1999 [[Bugatti EB 218|EB 218]] and 1999 [[Bugatti 18/3 Chiron|18/3 Chiron]] cars.<br />
