New models

Laffite Automobili, founded by Pascal Cohen and Bruno Laffite, is a company based in Turin that aims to produce high-performance race cars homologated for the road, all powered by fully-electric powertrains and endowed with luxurious features. The company recently unveiled three new models, including the Atrax HyperSUV, the LM1, and the Barchetta Coupe. 

The HyperSUV has garnered significant attention due to its unique construction as the first SUV to feature a central carbon monocoque paired with an advanced pushrod-equipped double wishbone suspension setup and off-road wheels equipped with Pirelli Scorpion ATR tires.
