It’s no secret that car design lacks some of the passion of classic sports cars and muscle cars of years past. However, names like Bertone create hope in the hearts of car enthusiasts who live for the artistic side of vehicle design. Unfortunately, the illustrious Gruppo Bertone declared bankruptcy years ago, even after influencing great cars like the Lancia Stratos and Fiat X19. However, the great name is back with a supercar teaser, and we hope it’s not a doomed reboot.  

What is a Bertone car?

Bertone cars are vehicles that the Bertone company styled and designed. While you may not have heard of know much about the design house, the designers have influenced, inspired, and developed some of the most timeless cars in history. For instance, Marcello Gandini, a famous car designer who worked for Bertone, designed the Lamborghini Miura and Lancia Stratos. Moreover, Gruppo Bertone designed the beloved little Fiat X19, a people’s sports car with timeless Italian styling.
