Design by Giugiaro with the promise of a naturally aspirated V12. What's not to like?
Does the world really need another supercar? Yes, of course, it does. Even if you’re not wealthy enough to buy one, supercars bring joy to the world, so a world with more can only be a happier place. Well, that’s the theory. And the Bizzarrini Giotto is just a theory at the moment, but we’re told that it absolutely will be a reality soon enough. The company apparently has orders already.
As you might imagine, then, for the Giotto, the Giugiaros have taken elements of the 5300 GT Corsa and integrated them into the new car. Details such as the double vent in the nose, which were a feature of the original Bizzarrini designs, but here have been adapted to accommodate the ultra-slim LED headlights.
Speaking of its relevance for a new era, the body is entirely carbon fibre and wrapped around a composite structure, with the engine mid-mounted rather than positioned up front, as it was in the 5300. However, the Giotto promises to be wonderfully old-school in other ways, such as its drivetrain. This isn’t one of the latest crop of electric hypercars; instead, the new car sticks with something that was always close to Giotto Bizzarrini’s heart - the V12.
After falling out with Ferrari he ended up contracted by Ferruccio Lamborghini, who was also famously upset by the Old Man, to design Lamborghini's first V12. That engine was used in the 350GT of ’64, and its basic design was still being deployed right up until the Murciélago in 2010.
