Wildtwelve, the supercar with Italian design unveiled in Turin

At the first edition of Parco Valentino-Salone & Gran Premio, the supercar designed by Torino Design was presented, and it has been named Wildtwelve. A car that has impressed with its looks, but also with its technical specifications. The venue has been one of the most special places in the city. The Parco del Valentino hosted its first car exhibition in 1900, and from 1935 to 1955 it also served as the setting for several Grand Prix races.

The car’s name takes the adjective Wild from its technical specifications, and “Twelve” from the engine that brings it to life: a 3.8-litre V12 engine that works in combination with two electric motors that drive the front wheels, together delivering 860 CV and 918 Nm, more than enough power to give it considerable force.

With all this, it is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.6 seconds and reaching a top speed of 390 km/h. The name seems to fit it perfectly, and it is a real gem that invites you to enjoy driving it. Carbon fibre has been used in its construction, which allows it to weigh just 1,450 kilos. This model remains a conceptual showcase vehicle that may never reach an assembly line.

Should that happen, the company says a limited edition could be produced at the former Bugatti factory in Campogalliano, for the brand ATS (Automobile Turismo e Sport), which was founded by former employees of Ferrari who decided to create it to compete with their former boss. The project lasted little more than a year, but it was recently bought by an Italian investment company and could be revived shortly.
