Elaborate porcelain pieces include the centerpiece plates between the seats, the center console, the rear Bugatti badge, the fuel filler cap, and the center wheel caps.
The Wei Long's body has a white pearl paint scheme that brings perfect contrast to the carmine red interior, a popular Chinese color that represents fortune and luck. The hand-crafted silk floor and headrests bear the Chinese character "Dragon." Apart from porcelain, carbon fiber is the dominant material that you can see in the car interior.
