    First Look at the Bertone Runabout

    2 weeks ago

    Bertone, the storied Italian design house with more than 112 years of history, is responsible for some of the most iconic vehicles ever created, including the Alfa Romeo Montreal, Lamborghini Countach, and Lancia Stratos. Its newest project is no less striking.The modern Bertone Runabout takes inspiration from the 1969 Autobianchi A112 Runabout, originally penned by Marcello Gandini for Autobianchi’s motorcycle division. While the original concept was based on the Fiat 128 platform, the new Runabout is built on a contemporary architecture.Redesigned from the ground up by Andrea Mocellin, the latest Runabout preserves much of the original concept’s visual identity, including the silver bodywork accented with orange details. Official renderings show both convertible and hardtop configurations.Power now comes from a V6 engine delivering producing 460 to 500 horsepower, a dramatic leap from the original’s 1.1-liter inline-four. Engineered to be lightweight, agile, and highly responsive, the Runabout marks the first model from Bertone’s new ā€œClassicā€ production line. The company is expected to continue reimagining heritage-inspired designs in the future.Production is said to be limited to 25 units, with buyers able to choose between barchetta and targa body styles. Manufacturing is scheduled to begin this year, with pricing set at roughly $378,500 per car. Subscribe
