Type 904 Aerodeck
1968A study in shooting brake proportions applied to a mid-engine chassis, exploring the balance between utility and uncompromising aerodynamics.
The genesis of modern aerodynamics. Conceived in 1974, this prototype shattered wind tunnel records and defined the silhouette of performance for decades to come.
A comprehensive catalog of unreleased concepts, design studies, and pivotal prototypes that shaped the brand's design language.
A study in shooting brake proportions applied to a mid-engine chassis, exploring the balance between utility and uncompromising aerodynamics.
Designed entirely in the digital realm, this concept pushed the visual boundaries of active aero elements before physical production constraints applied.
A raw, stripped-down test mule utilized for testing experimental composite materials for long-distance racing formats.
Rare archival photography of the 1:1 scale clay model, showcasing the initial sweeping lines that would later define the production model.
An interior study focusing on driver-centric controls, pre-dating modern digital displays by over two decades.
A pure styling exercise meant to establish the proportions for the next generation of grand tourers.
The 1982 'Stratos' study was never intended for production. It existed solely to test the limits of wedge-shaped design and active downforce systems in a highly controlled environment.
Kept within the secret vaults of the R&D department for nearly two decades, it has recently been meticulously restored to its original clay-model specifications, revealing details previously thought lost to history.
