Fittipaldi develops supercars with Pininfarina, HWA

Two-time Formula 1 world champion and Indy 500 winner Emerson Fittipaldi is teaming up with Pininfarina and HWA, two of the most famous car design and engineering companies, to develop a series of supercars.

Named the Fittipaldi EF7 Vision Gran Turismo, the first model will be unveiled under the Fittipaldi Motors banner on March 7 at the Geneva International Motor Show.

Fittipaldi’s “mission was to apply all his track knowledge on creating a new experience that will elevate the driving ability of all supercar enthusiasts from around the world”, reads an official statement, which was released along with a first picture.

As the name implies, the Fittipaldi EF7 Vision Gran Turismo will also feature in Sony Playstation’s best-selling racing video game franchise.

Further details on the car will be revealed in the coming days.
