C SEED Bugatti N1 TV Takes Forty-Five Seconds to Go From Sideboard to 137-Inch Screen

Road & Track spent time with the C SEED Bugatti N1 during Monterey Car Week and came away calling the transformation more striking in person than the press photos suggested. That reaction lines up with every account of watching the thing work. One button starts a silent, multi-stage sequence that lasts exactly 45 seconds.

What begins as a low, curved piece of furniture rises, slides, and unfolds into either a 110-inch or 137-inch 4K MicroLED display. The panels separate cleanly during the process, then settle so tightly that the joins vanish under C SEED’s Adaptive Gap Calibration system. Speakers from Wisdom Audio extend at the same time and later retract. When the sequence ends, the room has gained a massive, bright screen without any wall mounts or permanent visual bulk.

The closed version takes its inspiration directly from the Bugatti Tourbillon. That characteristic C-profile runs around the side, with flowing curves reminiscent of Jean Bugatti’s earliest renderings all those years ago. The lines and curves combine effortlessly, and materials like as aerospace aluminum and carbon-fiber mesh nicely with the high-end feel, as the Tourbillon’s special Sculpture Silver finish isn’t the only luxurious touch.

Four color options are available, or you can create your own custom setup. Closed up, it’s simple to see how this can function as a stunningly minimalist sideboard. When closed, the 137-inch model measures around 92.5 inches in length, 18.5 inches in depth, and 25.5 inches in height, weighing 1,500 pounds. The 110-inch version is slightly smaller, measuring 74 inches long and weighing 1,058 pounds, but it still requires no structural support from the wall. Both models spin a full 180 degrees and include the option of a center-sliding screen, allowing you to put it almost anywhere in the room.

Image quality is enhanced by the amazing MicroLED in Package (MiP) technology. Both versions offer 4K resolution. Peak brightness can reach 1,000 nits, with a native contrast ratio of 30,000 to 1. The pixel pitch is 0.7mm on the large panel and 0.6mm on the smaller one. Color processing is fully 16 bit per channel, resulting in 64 billion potential colors.

Then there’s the incredible refresh rate of 3,840 Hz, which refers to how quickly the N1’s MicroLEDs refresh, resulting in very smooth, flicker-free visuals even when the video isn’t running at 3,840 frames per second. A special glare-reducing coating and Adaptive Gap Calibration technology combine to keep the image smooth across the folding panels, making any joins undetectable at normal viewing distance. HDR10+ support is built-in. The power consumption varies, peaking at 2.6 kw for the 137 inch model and averaging around 0.9 kw when things are calm. LEDs have a lifespan of up to 100,000 hours.

Wisdom Audio’s planar-magnetic drivers handle the sound. The larger model includes six 12 watt speakers that can handle frequencies ranging from 200 Hz to 20 kHz, as well as a 200 watt subwoofer that can handle frequencies ranging from 60 Hz to 400 Hz. The smaller version also has a 200 watt subwoofer and four smaller drivers. When not in use, all of the speakers are hidden inside the screen, so no one can see them.

Three HDMI 2.0 ports with HDCP 2.2, two USB ports, and one RJ45 network connection are the only inputs, but there is no built-in tuner. These displays are manufactured and sold in Austria, but exclusively through an exclusive network of partners and authorized Bugatti dealers. Official cost has never been made public, although estimates place the 110-inch version at over $400,000 and the 137-inch variant much higher, often reaching $500,000 depending on the finishes and options selected. That’s on top of what other C SEED folding screens have been selling for, since the Bugatti brand only adds to the cost.
