Italian Carrozzeria Zagato, the most famous Automotive Atelier 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 wîth premium British automotive brands over several decades. Ace, Bristol, Aston Martin, Jaguar, MG, Rolls Royce and Rover are among the ÚK-based brands that have worked wîth 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 cooperations include Ferrari 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 wîth 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 wîth 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 wîth highly exclusive neo-classic Zagato bodies.Source - Zagato
