Between January 2015 and January 2016, STUDIOTORINO is involved in an innovative project in the zero-emission "green automotive" sector.
The client is Magna Steyr Italia directed by Tiziano Novo, who in turn shares the project with the Graz headquarters in the person of Hans-Peter Pessler.
The complete design of an electric vehicle "only" powered by solar energy is required, and also to provide "assistance" to the Magna Italia mathematizers and consequently then follow the construction of the style models.
An important part of this project is the complete technical feasibility by the Magna Italia Design Center, and the STUDIOTORINO Team will be of support by interfacing daily through the Project Manager Carlo Carena for style changes.

Moncalieri 2015: the designs then selected by Hanergydidascalia

For this work STUDIOTORINO will avail itself of the exclusive collaboration of Paolo Spada's SPADACONCEPT style studio.
In Team Magna Steyr Italia, Austria, they will compete with the Hanergy Managers Dr Gao and Mr Yan, Messrs. Tiziano Novo, Carlo Carena, Carlo Mantovani, Bruno Lambert, Hans-Peter Pessler, Peter Lausegger and the modelers Flavio and Davide Secoli of the company Viotti.
The technical specifications of this vehicle by Hanergy are a great challenge, in the sense that not only will the bodywork have to be covered by no less than 9 m2 of solar panels, but also a complex mechanism will have to be applied in the pavilion to be able to electrically extend a series of other additional solar panels with an origami-type system, to be extended into special parking areas for charging.

The theme of the meeting with Adolfo Orsi was inspiring. The topic of the thesis presented by Davide De Martinis, conceived and proposed in conjunction with Studiotorino, was: THE NEW MASERATI MOTORCYCLE m.y. 2016.
Not many people know that MASERATI produced motorcycles between 1947 and 1960. A meeting with someone so influential in the history of MASERATI was not an opportunity for Alfredo and Maria Paola Stola to miss in their roles as research supervisors for the thesis.
The aim of the thesis was two-folds: to analyze the history of the MASERATI MOTO and to imagine what its latest model would look like today if it had not gone out of production.

01February 8, 2016. The POST LAUREA DEGREE (IAAD) design by Studiotorino with Davide De Martinis. Project tutors for the style were Paolo Spada and Emanuele Battista of Spadaconcept. Research supervisors were Alfredo and Maria Paola Stola.

Davide De Martinis obtained his Laurea Degree in Transportation Design on July 9, 2015 at the Italian University For Design IAAD, Torino. Luca Bar and Marco Vendrame were his thesis advisors.
Paolo Spada and his colleague Emanuele Battista of Spadaconcept were his tutors on behalf of Studiotorino during his “Post-Laurea” period. They dedicated their passion and even some of their free time.
The name given to the imaginary re-invented motorcycle was VCM 322. It was chosen as a nod to the historic MASERATI address in Modena at Viale Ciro Menotti 322.

04Paolo Spada and Davide De Martinis during a creative moment.05The first drafts of a Maserati motorcycle inspired by the classic bikes of the 50’s and 60’s.

The VCR 322 DNA, is that of the 50cc motorcycle Type T2 Super Sport m.y. 1956, despite the great difference in engine capacity. The frame, the shock absorber details, the front fender, the color and the graphics have also been our references. There are also some automotive tributes, such as the holes on the frame and the plexiglass front lamp fairing pipes from the Birdcage Tyoe 61, the triple exhausts inspired by the iconic elements on the Quattroporte front fenders and wheel spokes from the GranTurismo.
The engine architecture, a 1000cc V6 90 degrees, it is not accidental, It is an homage to Ing. Giulio Alfieri, Maserati technical director between 1955 and 1975.
It took inspiration from SM engine employed on the Maserati Merak and later on the 1000 V6 Laverda, when in the 1977 Alfieri was consultant in this famous motorcycle company.
