Italdesign Zerouno Duerta
Italdesign has been penning cars since 1968, when it was founded by Giorgetto Giugiaro. The firm is responsible for the Lotus Esprit, the first-generation VW Golf, Maserati MC12 and dozens more. The firm is bringing a car under its own name to the Geneva Auto Show.
The Zerouno Duerta convertible is a V10-powered sports car that looks like the knife-edged future and can top 200 mph. The car borrows heavily from the Audi R8 parts bin, and will be extremely limited production.
TechArt GrandGT Supreme
TechArt is a big German tuning and modification firm. They’ll do more than just make your car faster, they’ll make it more luxurious. At this year’s Geneva Auto Show, check out their Panamera Gran Turismo, the Grand GT Supreme. It boosts the twin-turbo V8 from 570 to 640 horsepower.
It also adds stunning green paint and a body kit with a massive front splitter, wider air intakes, flared fenders and side skirts. The wheels are 22-inch monsters.
But inside, the Porsche wagon gets saddle brown, vegetable-tanned Nappa leather. It has multi-color stitching covering everything from top to bottom.
Rimac Concept Two
Croation electric car builder Rimac is best known for being the punchline to Richard Hammond’s latest crash on “The Grand Tour.” But the company is planning to launch a second model, the not-exactly creatively named Concept Two.
The Concept One was one of the fastest EVs around when it launched, but was recently upstaged by the Tesla Roadster prototypes. Rimac wants to be back in the top spot, and that means power. Lots and lots of power. The Concept Two is going to pack 1,914 horsepower and use a 120 kWh battery.
The company didn’t give a range at the Geneva Auto Show, but expect more than the Concept One’s 205 miles.
