Paolo Martin's concept drawing of the "nuovo Modulo"

Having worked for several decades on Ferraris, the designer Paolo Martin from Pininfarina-the design house of choice for Maranello-has styled several Prancing Horse design studies. One of his most iconic designs was the Ferrari Modulo concept, unveiled at the 1970 Geneva International Motor Show.

Based on the chassis from a homologated Ferrari 512 S racing car, the Modulo was the absolute cutting edge of space-age design. It was far too radical to ever see production, of course, but its design has lasted as one of the best of its era.

Now, in a rather unique move, Martin has revisited his concept, re-interpreting the theme in a more modern design. Theoretically based on a Ferrari Enzo chassis, the “nuovo Modulo” looks as radical now as the original did in its day.

What do you think about Paolo Martin’s concept drawing of the “nuovo Modulo?”
