Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera

Consumer Discretionary

Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera is an Italian car coachbuilder from Milan, known for the beauty of its designs and for its patented superleggera construction method. Wikipedia gives two dates for its establishment, 1925 in the opening paragraph and 25 March 1926 in the history, and names Felice Bianchi Anderloni and Gaetano Ponzoni as the founders. As automobile makers moved from body on frame construction to unitary design and took coachbuilding in house, the business declined and folded in 1966. Carlo Felice Bianchi Anderloni and Carrozzeria Marazzi kept the Touring Superleggera trademark and used it on several occasions. A family business bought the trademark and began operating in 2006 as Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera S.r.l., headquartered near Milan, offering automotive design, engineering, coachbuilding, homologation, industrial design and restoration of historic vehicles.
