Celebrating its 95th anniversary in 2021, Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera has given a

World Premiere unveiling to its first mid-engine car project at Salon Privé. The 2 seater rear central engine Arese

RH95 is based on the chassis of a Ferrari 488 GTB. It also retains the Ferrari powertrain, using the 488 GTB’s 3.9 litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine which produces 670 hp.It is connected to a 7 F1 DCT automatic transmission which drives the rear wheels. This gives the car a top speed of around 205 mph and a 0-62 mph acceleration time of 3.0 seconds.

The car features a grille and front air nostril treatment derived from the AERO 3 with aluminium design accents running down the side and scissor-style doors. The entire body is made of carbon fibre, which gives benefits in terms of weight and strength. The car features a dorsal scoop which is both bold and functional, optimising forced air circulation in the engine compartment. Each car will be hand-built by craftsmen who will spend 5,000 hours on each car, constructed to the customers specific requirements. Thus ensuring a high degree of personalisation, each Arese RH95 will be unique. Only 18 will be built. The name is taken from the road just outside Milan where the factory is based - Via per Arese, while the 95 represents the years that the company has existed.
