We exhibited a gigantic car entitled “Driving into endless customizations” and introduced the customized ALCANTARA(R), with the dashboard, doors, and seats all finished in different finishes. ALCANTARA®, a fabric often used in the fashion world, was used for the dashboard to create a denim-like effect, and the doors were embossed in cream.
In addition, the back of the ALCANTARA(R) seat used is made of foam material, giving the pattern a three-dimensional visual effect and highlighting the sporty atmosphere.

The grippy material surface expresses the fun of driving.
The event was attended by Rossella Guasco, Vice President of C&M Design Stellantis Europe, Francesca Sangalli, Head of Color&Trim and Concept&Strategy Seat Cupra, and Vudafieri Saverino Partners.

They talked about a variety of topics, including how interior and furniture design has played an important role in the inspiration, cabin comfort, innovative materials, and how to bring in light.
