"If the car has a soul, the battle is almost won."
— Nuccio Bertone

Along with his student Giorgetto Giugiaro and Sergio Pininfarina, Nuccio Bertone, who died in 1997, is one of the greats of Italian car design. He knew that the battles of the highly competitive automobile market are often decided by a car's impact on the emotions. So his primary goal was to overcome mediocrity, especially in sports cars. His Lamborghini - the Miura, Espada, and Countach - Ferrari Dino 308 GT4, Alfa Romeo Carabo, and Lancia Stratos zipped along racetracks and roads like arrows, with extremely pointed fronts and compact backsides.

Since the 1930s, Bertone had systematically turned the bodyshop opened by his father, Giovanni, in 1912 into a modern company, styling such luxury cars as the Fiat 2800 Cabriolet. His breakthrough came in 1954 with the modest but elegant Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint, which was originally designed for a limited series of 500 but went on to be in production for thirteen years. Other classic Bertone designs |include the 1964 Fiat Spider 850 and the low-slung, sporty 1972 Fiat X1/9. In more recent years Bertone's company designed the Opel Kadett Cabrio (1987), the Opel Astra Cabrio (1993), and the Fiat PuntoCabrio (1994).
