AGTZ Twin Tail Limited Edition

The Italian coachbuilding company Zagato in its 105-year long history has cooperated with the best car manufacturers such as Aston Martin, Ferrari, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Bentley, BMW, Porsche, etc. Now, Zagato has unveiled a limited edition AGTZ Twin Tail based on the Alpine A110, and only 19 examples will be produced.

In the late 60s, Zagato produced the AGTZ Twin Tail based on the then Alpine A220, which current CEO Andrea Zagato claimed was two cars in one. Before and after transformation. Owners could decide which body type they wanted, converting the Longtail version to a Shorttail version after detaching the rear section. One was better on a fast track, the other on a more technically demanding road section.

This model is also equipped with a removable double rear end, so the car can be configured for road use or to achieve maximum speed thanks to the lower aero coefficient generated by the extended tail.

When it comes to the powertrain, Zagato didn’t reveal the details. The current Alpine A110 is powered by a 1.8L 4-cylinder turbo gasoline engine with 249 hp (186 kW) and 236 lb-ft (320 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 4.5 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph).

The AGTZ Twin Tail will premiere in May at the Concours d’Elegance in Vila d’Este. Price, 650,000 euros.

Unique AR Zagato Giulia SWB

Celebrating a century of collaboration between Alfa Romeo and Zagato, which began with the Giulia Quadrifoglio GTAm, the companies have unveiled a unique model, the AR Zagato Giulia SWB.

The car is based on a shortened platform of the standard Giulia, and its creation was the wish of an unnamed customer in Germany who is an avid collector of Zagato’s automotive creations. This time he suggested that he would like an Alfa whose exterior will be a reminder of the Alfa/Zagato models SZ and TZ.

This Coupé with two seats and two doors, under the carbon body, hides the mechanics from the most powerful and numerically limited edition of the Giulia Quadrifoglio, which bears the GTAm designation. It is powered by Ferrari’s 2.9-liter biturbo V6 engine with 540 hp (397 kW) and 443 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission instead of the standard 8-speed automatic transmission from the Giulia GTAm, which was the customer’s wish.

The car has been delivered to the customer, and the performance and price data of this unique car have not been published.
