Mopar celebrates 50th anniversary of Gen II 426 Hemi

Jason Castriota to head Saab Design

When Car Design News spoke to Jason Castriota about the new design consultancy he had set up in New York and Turin back in March, the designer told us he was working on a very exciting automotive project that he couldn't talk about at the time.

First impressions suggest it may offer some respite from the current crop of rather uneventful-looking supercars.
