Italian
Carrozzeria, Zagato, one of the most famous automotive
Ateliers in the world is developing a unique coachbuilt
body for a Bentley, one of the world’s most beautiful
and desirable cars.
The Bentley project follows the long-standing tradition
of Zagato Atelier co-operation with premium British
automotive brands over several decades. Ace, Bristol,
Aston Martin, Jaguar, MG, Rolls Royce and Rover are
among the UK-based brands that have worked with the
Milan Atelier in the past to produce, what are now some
of the most sought after collector’s cars in the world.
Other notable co-operations includeFerrari and Maserati.
The concept of sports elegance, dynamically functional
design, remaining free from contingent tendencies but
seeking directly to drive emotion and pure pleasure,
combined with the hand-shaped precious aluminium bodies,
have made Zagato Atelier appreciated as one of the very
best and most admired by Customers and Collectors since
the 1920’s.
Zagato’s strength lies in the creation and realisation
of this sports-style elegance within a functional design
that does not bow to momentary fashions but seeks out
the sheer excitement and total pleasure of driving, an
appreciating value recognised everywhere. Today Zagato
is the only Atelier capable of marrying its great and
long history of craftsman-led workshop experience with
the most modern design and development technologies
currently available. This capability has allowed Zagato
to build small numbers of unique samples, combining the
very best of premium manufacturer’s mechanical running
gear with highly exclusive neo-classic Zagato bodies.
