Icona Design will build a new concept, called Vulcano. The creation is a 900 HP two-seater Supercar with a V12 front-mounted engine, assisted by two electric motors.

The former Ferrari technical director, Claudio Lombardi, developed this drive train. The surprise element of the new Supercar, which's teaser is already on the internet, is that it was designed at a Shanghai studio, the place where the brand is established.

Icona Vulcano will be able to accelerate from 0-200 km/h in less than 10 seconds and reach a top speed of 350 km/h. "Vulcano is an evolution of the Icona Fuselage language design, says Samuel Chuffart, the design director of the two icons.
