You will discover with sublime photos 15 Porsches that have remained in the shadow of the design office…

Concept-cars et prototypes d’études Renault.

Through the most representative concept cars of Renault design, the whole history of the different Renault style offices from the 1960s to 2020 is told in these pages. The three periods (Juchet-Opron, Le Quément and Van den Acker) are each followed by a chapter revealing study prototypes or show concepts. But the strength of this book is that it also presents many unknown projects, such as the Berlinette Z11 from 2001 or a hitherto unknown urban Twingo SUV.

CONCEPT-CARS RENAULT : book of 356 pages. Format 28.5 x 24.5 cm. Price : 89 €. ISBN : 978-2-9555780-6-3.

LIGNES/auto#01

It is not really a book, or even a magazine. This “book”, in Italian format, is the first of a collection that is available on a quarterly basis. Before discovering the second issue in January 2021, take advantage of this opus which respects the editorial line of the eponymous site: news (10 pages of a beautiful subject on the DS ASL), design (a Citroën dossier) and archives (l’Espace would find its roots in… England!). Please note that the edition is limited to 400 copies.

LIGNES/auto#01: book of 130 pages. 24 x 16,5 cm. Price : 28 €. ISBN : 9-782-957-5008-02 – Bilingual : French/English

Pininfarina 90 Years

Many books tell the story of this unique carrozzeria. Here is the official volume dedicated to the 90 years of this venerable house.

PININFARINA 90 YEARS: book of 528 pages. 26 X 28,5 cm. Price : 85,50 €. EAN : 978-88-7911-809-5. Bilingual : Italian/English
