Capricorn Shows All-Red 01 Zagato ‘Tutto Rosso’ Prototype at Villa d’Este

The one-off validates an extreme custom brief that Capricorn says it can carry into a tiny series late 2026.

Overview

  • Capricorn presented the customer-commissioned third development car at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este during Como Car Week.
  • About 95% of all visible surfaces are finished in red, including a red‑dyed carbon monocoque, with exceptions for the shift gate, pedals, and heat‑stressed parts like the exhaust.
  • Capricorn says it manufactures roughly 85% of the car’s components in‑house, which enabled bespoke materials and finishes across the body and cabin.
  • The prototype keeps the core package: a mid‑mounted 5.2‑liter V8 with more than 900 PS, rear‑wheel drive, a six‑speed manual, a sub‑3‑second 0–100 km/h target, and a 360 km/h top‑speed claim.
  • Production is planned to start at the end of 2026 for a very limited run reported at 19 cars near €3 million each, with a few build slots still said to be open.
