BMW Zagato Roadster

The BMW Zagato Roadster, the open version of the concept, was presented at the 2021 Pebble Beach Elegance Competition.

Vehicle Overview

The BMW Zagato Roadster, created by the renowned Milanese atelier in just six weeks, is a stunning example of Italian design merging with the essence of classic roadsters. This masterpiece, designed by Norihiko Harada, draws heavily from the lines of its Coupé counterpart, blending the elegance of Italian craftsmanship with the adventurous spirit of American roadsters. One of the most striking features of the BMW Zagato Roadster is its absence of a roof and rear window, which results in a lower and sleeker profile compared to the Coupé. This design choice emphasizes the car’s sporty and aerodynamic character. Adding to its distinctive look are two unique roll-bars positioned behind the headrests. These roll-bars, covered in brown leather, stretch forward with an almost wing-like design, enhancing the car’s dynamic appearance. The iconic “double bubble” roofline, a hallmark of Zagato’s design language, is reinterpreted in the Roadster. This design element extends from the roll-bars to the end of the rear hood, creating a cohesive and fluid silhouette that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The Roadster also boasts new five-spoke alloy wheels, specifically designed to evoke the profile of a propeller. This stylistic choice is a nod to the shared aeronautical heritage of both BMW and Zagato, highlighting their common history in the aviation industry. The BMW Zagato Roadster is a true testament to the innovative spirit and artistic collaboration between BMW and Zagato. Its unique design elements, from the absence of a roof to the reimagined double bubble and propeller-inspired wheels, set it apart as a remarkable and timeless piece of automotive art. This car not only captures the essence of a classic roadster but also represents the cutting-edge design and engineering prowess of two iconic brands.
