The Touring A8 GCS Berlinetta is now ready for one-off production
Geneva is the first public appearance of this prototype after the Concours d’Élegance previews.
Touring Superleggera has completed the development stage and is now ready to produce a rolling concept for one of the passionate clients who showed their enthusiasm since the first debut.
The Berlinetta is based on a high-end production platform revised by Touring. It has been carefully selected to match the mission profile in power, torque, and handling.
Compact, light and powerful, the shape embodies the perfect high performance sports car in the Touring tradition. The A8 GCS Berlinetta is a strict two-seater with perfectly balanced volumes and frugal decoration.
“We wanted a strong project” – says the Belgian Head of Design of Touring Superleggera, Louis de Fabribeckers – “I drew from the stylistic heritage of Touring the work of surfaces and also this sinusoidal line across the side of the Berlinetta”.
Te car is 4,20 m. long and only 1,22 m. high on a 2,50 m. wheelbase. Engineers target a 1500 kg weight for the finished car.
