Bertone Name to Return with Brand New 217-Mph EV Supercar Dec 28 2018 by Alasdair Lindsay Bertone name to return with brand new 217-mph EV supercar There hasn't been a Bertone car since 2013's Aston Martin Rapide Bertone Jet 2+2 – but new EV marque Dianchè is bringing Bertone back for a new supercar Bertone is back in the car business after a five-year absence with a brand new 217-mph supercar planned for production by newly founded EV marque Dianchè. Dubbed the Dianchè BSS GT Cube, the new Bertone-badged supercar has a claimed power output of 600kW (804 bhp) through a 300kW motor attached to each axle, supposedly good enough 217 mph and a 0-60 mph time of 2.2 seconds. More Bertone designs One-off Aston Martin Rapide Bertone Jet 2+2 could be yours Exclusive video: Inside the forgotten Bertone archives Buy a Bertone-penned classic car from our classifieds There's one catch to Bertone's return, however – it's in name only. Following the original Gruppo Bertone's bankruptcy in 2014 (and one year after unveiling its final concept car), the Bertone brand was sold to AKKA Technologies, which is now licensing the Bertone brand to Dianchè's parent company, Flymove. Claiming to be influenced by Bertone design language, Dianchè recently unveiled a pair of wildly different concept cars alongside their plans for the GT Cube: the Bertone BSS GT One sports car and an aptly named City Car BSS Cube. There's also another variant of the City Car planned, the entry-level City Car One, which looks a bit like if a Renault Twizy had been in the 1987 cult film RoboCop. 1 / 1 / BSS refers to what Dianchè hopes will be its unique selling point – a Battery Swap System, replacing as you go charging for hot-swappable batteries. Rather than plug in and wait, Dianchè has lofty plans to create a network of service stations, which will allow each car's power source to be swapped out for a fully charged equivalent in three minutes. Standard plug-in charging will also be offered. It's likely, though, that the range-topping sports car will be of more interest to old school Bertone fans, even if traditional combustion engines have been canned for the brand's new iteration. Given Bertone was responsible for styling the gorgeous Lamborghini Miura, any wannabe high performance vehicle carrying the Italian coachbuilder's name has a high benchmark to hit. There's perhaps a dash of the 2012 Nuccio concept in the headlights and passenger windows of the Dianchè's GT Cube design, though that's as far as we see the similarities go. The boxy nature of the city cars seems a bit further off what we might expect from a true Bertone design. The only car from its history that comes close to its boxiness is the Bertone Freeclimber (a Daihatsu Rugger/Fourtrak 4x4 in Italian drag). The city cars, though, unashamedly scream Bertone, with prominent branding on the back and rear quarter panels, plus further but more subtle branding on the doors. A 35kW electric motor has been chosen to power the City Car BSS Cube, with a claimed range of 200km. Combined with a top speed of 93 mph, it's clearly aimed at the urban market. As for the GT Cube, it's claimed by Flymove that a racing program is part of its roadmap. Concept renderings show it racing around Monaco's famous street circuit, along with a broad statement that the GT Cube 'will participate in some important competitions in 2019/2020.' Dianchè's very first Bertone prototype model, the BSS GT One, will slot in underneath the GT Cube in its offering, with two 150kWh motors and a top speed of 186 mph. Initial testing for the BSS GT One is scheduled to take place at the Adria racetrack in March next year, with pre-orders opened a month later and deliveries beginning in 2020.

  • Ns. Rif. 1576-GM Del 12-5-20
    Media Information Automobili Lamborghini and The Italian Sea Group unveil the motor yacht ‘Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63’ Sant’Agata Bolognese/Marina di Carrara, 30 June 2020 – Automobili Lamborghini and The Italian Sea Group present the worldwide premiere of ‘Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63’, the Tecnomar fleet’s new motor yacht available in a limited edition in reference to Lamborghini’s 1963 foundation. Performance, driving pleasure, attention to quality and details, emotion: these are the emotive features combined within the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63, thanks to innovative engineering solutions and a distinct design unique to shared Italian style and tradition. This motor yacht project, developed by The Italian Sea Group, started with several collaborative sessions with the contribution of Lamborghini’s Centro Stile and inspiration from the Lamborghini Sián FKP 37: the hybrid super sports car incorporating benchmarking new supercapacitor and materials science technologies, that anticipates the future with an unmistakable design and completely customizable colour and details. The challenge of re-interpreting the common DNA traits of both brands has inspired all phases of the project, from the design principles to the definition of technical characteristics ensuring incredible performance, without neglecting the quality of materials and careful attention to detail. Stefano Domenicali, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini said: ”This yacht represents the significance of creating a valuable partnership, at its best: our co-operation allows the essence of both organisations’ style and expertise to be transferred to different worlds, sharing in their diversity to interpret and add value to the final product in a new environment. If I had to imagine a Lamborghini on water, this would be my vision.

  • Life Begins After 30 the Range Rover Classic
    Life Begins After 30 The Range Rover Classic By Jeffrey B. Aronson Age slips up to most of us, and the next thing you know, you’re a “classic.” It may be hard to believe, but the Range Rover has now delighted automotive enthusiasts since its unveiling 31 years ago. When Land Rover afficionados discuss “old Land Rovers,” they must now include Range Rovers, too. The Range Rover has been with us in much the same manner for three decades; even the “new” model in 1994 retained many of the engineering cues of the original. The original Range Rover, dubbed the “Classic,” took the Land Rover concept of “crossover vehicle” and made it more sophisticated. Whereas the Land Rover made itself into a station wagon by adding more seats to a utility vehicle, it First didn’t fool passengers one bit. The Range Rover Impressions combined luxury, performance, station wagon utility, and of course, off road capability, in a car that asked little compromise from its owners.
