The Veyron's chief designer was [[Hartmut Warkuß]], with the exterior being designed by [[Jozef Kabaň]] of Volkswagen. Much of the engineering work was conducted under the guidance of chief technical officer Wolfgang Schreiber. The Veyron includes a sound system designed and built by [[Burmester Audiosysteme]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.burmester.de/en/automotive/bugatti.html |title=Burmester Audiosysteme & Bugatti |website=Burmester Audiosysteme |access-date=20 September 2018}}</ref>
