As reported in a previous post, Pininfarina will unveil a concept car called Sintesi Concept at the Geneva Motor Show in March. Until now, details remained scarce but information is emerging as we’re getting closer to the show.


The Sintesi Concept will take its inspiration from the Birdcage 75th and the Nido as Pininfarina wants the concept to be a perfect combination of sportiness and functionality. The Nido was a city car while the Birdcage remains one of the greatest Pininfarina ever.

“Three years ago we unveiled Birdcage 75th, our last prototype. Together with our new concept Sintesi we would like to anticipate new car design trends” says Andrea Pininfarina, Chairman and CEO Pininfarina S.p.A.

“This concept car is the synthesis of our values, of the love for our work and our passion for innovation, of beauty driven by functionality, of sportiness and elegance. However, Sintesi isn’t only the expression of Pininfarina design; it also embraces innovative technologies that allow us to explore new typologies of mobility, active safety and packaging solutions” states Lowie Vermeersch.

The concept car will feature fuel cell and batteries which will be placed in an innovative way, around the vehicle instead of being grouped under the boot
