What does Superleggera mean in Italian?
Superleggera means superlight in Italian, but there’s nothing light about this grand tourer. Under its sculpted hood is a 715 hp V12 engine which can get the Superleggera on to a 338 km/h top speed. The “Superleggera” moniker, meaning “super light” in Italian, is a nod to the innovative construction technique used by Carrozzeria Touring of Milan. This method involved wrapping a lightweight aluminum body over a steel tubular frame, resulting in a car that was both incredibly light and structurally sound.
