Disco Volante 1 at Touring Superleggera Disco Volante Concept: Promo

Disco Volante 2012 concept car is a modern take on the 1952 Alfa Romeo C52 ‘Disco Volante’ by Milan-based coachbuiler Touring Superleggera. The car has the same sort of weird but very aerodynamic body as the classic car, but it’s completely modern and made of high-end materials like carbon fiber. Underneath that glorious body, the Disco is based on the Alfa 8C Competizione.

Touring released this amazing promo video to give us a better look at the Disco Volante. The car made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show.
