Bizzarrini Follows Up 5300 GT Corsa Revival With All-New V12 Giotto Hypercar
The reborn Bizzarrini company is following up last year’s 5300 GT Revival with an all-new V12 hypercar. It’s called Giotto after Giotto Bizzarrini, the trailblazing engineer who helped create cars like the Ferrari 250 GT SWB and 250 GTO, and designed Lamborghini’s iconic V12 engine before setting up a firm bearing his own name. But while the 5300 GT Revival was a close copy of the original company’s 1960s racer designed to remind people why the Bizzarrini name matters, its successor wants to be compared with modern hypercars like the Pagani Utopia.

Toyota Says Data Proves EV-Only Policy Is Worse For The Planet
Despite doing more than another carmaker to popularize the idea of hybrid technology, Toyota has been slow to enter the full EV market and has received flak as a result. But now Toyota claims it has the data to prove that going all-in on EVs as many rival automakers have committed to do, isn’t just a bad business decision, it could be bad for the environment. The firm’s Chief Scientist, Gill Pratt, says it makes far more sense for car companies to offer cars with different energy sources, including hybrids and hydrogen.
