The GG50 is a concept car by Italdesign Giugiaro created for Giorgetto Giugiaro's 50th anniversary as an automotive designer. It is based on the 612 Scaglietti, but features a shorter wheelbase and a fastback coupé body with a rear hatch and folding rear seats to make getting in and out of the back easy. Giugiaro wanted a Ferrari he could comfortably use with his family. The mechanicals match the standard 612; Ferrari provided a rolling chassis and technical support. The car was shown in 2005 at the Tokyo Motor Show.

Body and everyday practicality

Giugiaro designed the car himself as a fastback coupé with a shorter wheelbase than the 612. He wanted a Ferrari with which he could comfortably transport his family and make getting in and out of the rear easy. Folding rear seats and a rear hatch ensure this while also expanding storage space. The rearward-sloping roofline provides greater headroom in the back.

Details and technical features

Beyond the body, Italdesign altered the nose, the wheels, the now slimmer headlights, and the taillights, which are styled as a distinct group of four. A glass roof was added as well. Mechanically, the GG50 corresponds to a standard 612. Ferrari supplied a rolling chassis of the 612 Scaglietti and provided technical support to Italdesign during the build.
