Bugatti and C SEED unveil a folding 137-inch luxury TV

Bugatti’s newest status object is not a car, a watch or a piece of luggage. It is a 137-inch television that folds into a sideboard-like cabinet, rotates into position in 45 seconds, and then disappears when switched off, making it the kind of gift that lands hardest with collectors who already have the watches, cars and art covered.

Bugatti and C SEED unveiled the C SEED BUGATTI N1 on June 2, 2026, in Molsheim, offering the display in 110-inch and 137-inch sizes. The concept borrows directly from the Bugatti Tourbillon and the brand’s C-line, and Bugatti describes it as an architectural statement rather than a conventional television. In a market crowded with giant screens that dominate a room, this one is designed to vanish into it.

That disappearing act is the point. The N1 unfolds from its base into a 4K MicroLED display, then rotates up to 180 degrees for viewing. C SEED says the system uses MicroLED MiP technology, HDR10+, Adaptive Gap Calibration, an anti-reflective coating and an integrated Wisdom Audio sound system with hidden speakers that unfold automatically. For a housewarming, milestone birthday or collector-level gift, the appeal is not just scale but theater: the screen performs on command, then returns to furniture.

Wiebke Ståhl, Bugatti’s managing director, said the partnership united “design mastery, engineering precision and uncompromising performance,” while Alexander Swatek, chief executive of C SEED, said the aim was not to make a better TV but something beyond the television category. That is the right framing for the small circle of buyers likely to care. This is not for a media room built on restraint. It is for an owner who wants the room itself to feel commissioned.

C SEED has spent years proving that ultra-premium display hardware can be as much object as appliance. The company’s 262-inch C SEED 262 carried a price of about $549,000 in 2017 and was billed as the world’s largest 4K TV at the time. Its foldable M1, a 165-inch MicroLED model, was priced at $400,000. The Bugatti edition pushes that lineage further with automotive branding and interior-architecture ambition, while public estimates have put its price around $500,000, even though no official public figure has been released.

Sold through C SEED’s dealer and partner network, the N1 is not a mass-market screen. It is a rarefied gift for the buyer who wants spectacle without clutter, and proof that in the uppermost tier of luxury, the most persuasive present is often the one that disappears when the room is quiet.
