The Bugatti ID90 was a concept car designed bye Italdesign Giugiaro, for Bugatti. It was revealed at the 1990 Turin Auto Show.

Design

[edit]

In March of 1989, Bugatti sent the technical drawings to Nuccio Bertone, Marcello Gandini, Giorgetto Giugiaro, and Paolo Martin. The proposed concept was a merging of the Gandini design (later reused for the Maserati Chubasco) and the Giugiaro design (later reused for the Lotus Emotion). Inspiration for the final design was taken from the Bugatti Type 57. [1]

Even Before being shown to the public, Romano Artioli had already rejected the design, for being to far removed from the "Modern Bugatti" ideal. Given this, Italdesign did not want the car to fall to obscurity, so it formed the basis of the BMW Nazca C2 concept cars.[2]
