The Laffite Barchetta Coupé designed by GFG Style Giugiaro.
The Laffite Barchetta Coupé is a unique and stylish reinterpretation of its open-top counterpart, boasting a distinct character that sets it apart in the world of luxury sports cars. Designed by GFG Style, led by the renowned Fabrizio Giugiaro, this coupé features a seamless, single-piece windscreen that elegantly wraps around both the driver and passenger, creating a cohesive and aerodynamic look. Giugiaro’s influence is evident in the car’s sophisticated lines and innovative design approach, merging aesthetics with functionality. One of the most striking features of the Barchetta Coupé is its removable carbon roof. This design element not only enhances the car’s versatility but also lends it an uncommon and sophisticated appearance. When the roof is in place, the car exudes the sleek silhouette of a traditional coupé. When removed, it transforms into a thrilling open-air experience, blending the best of both coupé and barchetta worlds. This versatility makes the Barchetta Coupé adaptable to various driving moods and environments, offering an exclusive driving experience whether on a scenic coastal road or a bustling city street. The interior of the Barchetta Coupé reflects the same innovative spirit and attention to detail seen in its exterior. Drawing inspiration from the open version, the cabin is designed as a single, continuous space. It features a minimalist yet luxurious layout, highlighted by a central structure that subtly divides the driver and passenger areas without disrupting the sense of openness. High-quality materials and exquisite craftsmanship are evident throughout, with fine leather, carbon fiber accents, and cutting-edge technology seamlessly integrated into the design. Overall, the Laffite Barchetta Coupé embodies a harmonious blend of innovation, elegance, and originality. Its distinctive design elements, such as the unified windscreen and modular roof, coupled with a refined interior that mirrors the styling cues of its barchetta sibling, make it a true standout in the automotive world. Fabrizio Giugiaro’s creative vision through GFG Style ensures that the Barchetta Coupé not only excels in visual appeal but also pushes the boundaries of traditional sports car design while maintaining the essence of driving pleasure and aesthetic sophistication.
The new car manufacturer founded by Bruno Laffite, grandson of F1 driver Jaques, makes its debut at the Miami Grand Prix. Sporty DNA and made-in-Italy style signed by Giorgetto and Fabrizio Giugiaro’s GFG Style.
