A concept car that interprets the coupé-cabriolet theme with aggressive elegance. This is what will be given its world debut by Bertone at the 76th Geneva International Motor Show (2-12 March 2006).
The new Bertone-designed concept, as always the result of styling research above and beyond the dictates of fashion, interprets the theme of the sports car with retractable hard top in a quite new way. Developed on a Fiat Grande Punto base, the Bertone concept slots into the compact car market (segment B) while being at the same time an absolute novelty in so far as this segment contains no retractable hard top coupé-cabriolets with four “real” seats. This concept in fact sets a new benchmark in terms of interior space and quality of life on board: the cabin layout is the result of meticulously attentive volumetric and ergonomic studies geared to levels of comfort and roominess comparable only to a higher segment car.
The styling research, developed by Bertone in a coupé-type vehicle, stands out for its highly dynamic graphics: sloping front, high waistline, snug, muscular tail. This concept car is an evolution of one of Bertone’s pet themes: the open sports car accessible to the young and to the public at large, nippy and manoeuvrable, with a strong personality.
