Jannarelly Design-1
Remember the Jannarelly Design-1? The
classically styled roadster was announced back in December, when it only
existed in renderings, but now it's come to fruition.
The Design-1 is the work of Anthony
Jannarelly, the same talent who penned the Lykan Hypersport and Fenyr
Supersport for W Motors, in collaboration with carbon-fiber magnate Frederic
Juillot. The design draws inspiration from '60s roadsters like the Shelby Cobra
and Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, rendered in composite and powered by a 3.5-liter
V6.
With a modest price tag targeted at
around US$ 55,000, it's no surprise that Jannarelly has received an outpouring of
interest for the retro roadster. In fact, the company says it has heard from
around 80 potential customers, 20 of whom have already placed firm orders.
Armed with that early commercial
success, Jannarelly showcased the Design-1 – in the metal this time – at two
events in Dubai recently: a private unveiling at Tomini Classics on May 25, and
a public presentation at Le Trésor classic car café two days later. Both of
which give us the opportunity to see what it looks like in finished form, as
you can see for yourself in the images below.
The company has already secured European
distribution through Lotus distributor Marcassus Sport. It's also in the
process of negotiating for a potential North American agent as well.
