Many pages of automotive design history have been written by the Giugiaro family and many are still to be written. For this reason, just four years after the release of the first edition, the volume of the “Masterpiece of Style” series, published by Giorgio Nada and dedicated to this great designer returns in an updated and expanded version with the latest creations, those following the birth of the new company GFG Style with which father and son have started the new chapter of their professional epic.

Unlike the previous volume, released in 2019 but dedicated only to Giorgetto’s adventure, from his early experience at Bertone to the founding of Italdesign in 1968 up to his entry into Volkswagen in 2010, this one also involves his son Fabrizio, which therefore also enters the title of the work.

The 48 additional pages, accompanied by around seventy new photographs, contemplate the latest period, which culminates with the complete sale of the historical company to the German giant and the subsequent foundation of GFG Style. So the volume starts again from the numerous production cars (and prototypes) that made Giorgetto Giugiaro’s name famous, such as the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT and Alfetta, the Audi 80, the Fiat Panda, Uno and Punto, the Lancia Delta, Thema and Prisma, the first Maserati Ghibli, the Volkswagen Golf, to move on to the projects developed for the Volkswagen Group such as Parcour but also the attempt to make their debut as manufacturers with the Zerouno. From here we arrive at the most recent works by GFG such as Sibylla, Kangaroo and 2030, Desert Raid and Dora up to the participation in Giotto’s project for the Bizzarrini reborn. All with text entirely in English.
