Hype&Hyper · 11 07 2023

Garage Italia Customs collaborates with Bonacina to make a comeback in the automotive industry, unveiling the new Fiat 500 Spiaggina.

This new edition features Bonacina’s signature woven seats, meticulously handcrafted and available upon request through Garage Italia.

Garage Italia Customs, founded by Lapo Elkann in 2017, is known for its innovative approach to customization and bespoke experiences for brands, companies, and private clients. Their renowned Icon-e project involves the restoration and electrification of classic cars, including the Fiat 500 transformed into the Spiaggina.

The car can be recharged within a few hours using any standard domestic power socket. Its design pays homage to the original version by Vittorio Bonacina from the 1950s, featuring rattan-core woven seats that evoke the essence of the “dolce vita” lifestyle. Meanwhile, the new series allows customers to select any color of their choice, courtesy of Garage Italia.
