On the occasion of the Salone di Torino, in honor of the charm and sensuality of Shirley Eaton, an unforgettable Bond Girl of "Agent 007 - Mission Goldfinger", FV-Frangivento Charlotte will be painted with gold.
The car features an iconic silhouette wrapped around a single line from the rear wheel to drive all the car to the front as you want to play the Jump. For its construction, aluminum-engineered components have been used with aerospace auxiliary materials, while the exterior is hand-beaten according to the ancient tradition of Turin battilastra. Significant technical contribution from Skorpion Engineering since 2000 pioneered the use of additive technologies especially for the automotive industry, the first industry to understand the huge benefits of these innovative technologies.
Charlotte is 100% electric, a hypercar equipped with four electric axial flow units, two on the front and two on the rear, for a total power of 660 kW and a consumption of 14 kWh / 100 km. It is able to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in just 2.6 seconds, reach 200 KM in standby time in 7.8 seconds and touch a 305 km / h peak speed. The autonomy, with the Nedc cycle, reaches the 500 kilometers.

The interiors, inspired by the Mediterranean Sea, are also well cared for, with a tropical aquarium just behind the seats. The five types of skins, including those made by the 'Race', cloak the interiors by recreating the playground of light and the reflections of the water. Two-seat passengers can enjoy the feeling of a dip in the sea thanks to the two 'Waves' that wrap the seats up to the door panels. Designed to accommodate the autonomous drive, the cockpit has been thought of as a modern loft cleared from everything to leave room for the use of valuable materials, up to the silver keys. Also on a part of the suspended car, called "Island", because it resumes the triangular shape of Sicily, a Venetian Moretto was inserted.
