The 01 Zagato marks Capricorn’s inaugural hypercar, designed by Zagato.

Featuring a carbon monocoque and a V8 engine, it is limited to just 19 units, each priced starting at $3.15 million.


In a market saturated with limited-edition supercars and hypercars flaunting impressive figures and complex designs, there is always room for another to leave its imprint. 
	
Introducing the 01 Zagato, a creation focused on the driver, developed by Germany's Capricorn Group in collaboration with the esteemed Italian design firm. This model maintains a refreshing simplicity by combining a non-electrified V8 with a manual transmission.

While this is the first vehicle to showcase the Capricorn name, the company's expertise in performance engineering is extensive. Their lightweight materials have demonstrated reliability in some of the fiercest motorsport environments, supporting teams like Porsche in LMP1, Peugeot Sport in Le Mans and Dakar, Mercedes, Lotus, and Caterham in Formula 1, and Volkswagen in WRC.
		
		
		
		

Capricorn's Founder and CEO Robertino Wild shares a close friendship with Zagato President Andrea Michele Zagato, leading to a project that merges “German engineering precision with Italian design elegance.” The objective was to create a road-legal hypercar that is “designed to be driven, experienced, and remembered.”

Function Meets Tradition

The design incorporates hallmark Zagato features such as the double-bubble roof, almond-shaped headlights, and sculpted fenders. However, its side profile also hints at influences from the Ford GT, while the wraparound glass and single wiper evoke a Koenigsegg silhouette, complemented by slim LED taillights reminiscent of Rimac's minimalism.

Instead of depending on active aerodynamic features, the 01 Zagato employs precisely shaped intakes and outlets to generate consistent downforce. The aim was to make the vehicle approachable for skilled enthusiasts while remaining accessible for drivers lacking racing experience.
		
		

                            
                
                     

Capricorn

A Timeless Interior

Capricorn designed the cabin, featuring a cluster of analog instruments situated behind a round steering wheel, with the central rev counter being the focal point. There are no infotainment screens to modernize the layout, just a small display for the rearview camera that retracts when not in use. 

This recalls a recent discussion about the revival of mechanical watches as luxury symbols after the Quartz Crisis, suggesting a similar trend is occurring with automotive displays. As digital screens proliferate in contemporary dashboards, there seems to be a renewed interest in traditional analog dials for premium vehicles.

The switches are crafted from solid titanium and aluminum, combined with extensive use of exposed carbon fiber, Alcantara, and Connolly leather. The fixed seats provide adjustable cushioning, while the steering column, pedal box, and manual gear lever can all be adjusted for the ideal driving position.

According to Capricorn, the interior can accommodate a variety of body types and includes a 110-liter front trunk for storage.

Analog Driving Experience

Underneath the carbon exterior lies an LMP1-style monocoque chassis also constructed from carbon fiber, along with carbon fiber front and rear subframes. The suspension features double wishbones and pushrod Bilstein dampers with three selectable driving modes (Comfort, Sport, and Track) and a four-wheel lift system.

An electric power-assisted steering setup allows for easy maneuverability at low speeds, then disconnects at high speeds for direct, mechanical feedback. The 21-inch wheels, available in either lightweight alloy or carbon fiber, conceal Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes.

Ford Power

This brings us to the powertrain, which defies the trend towards electrification. The mid-mounted supercharged 5.2-liter V8 is based on a Ford engine, further developed by Capricorn with custom components and tuning. 

The outcome is an impressive engine that produces over 888 hp (662 kW / 900 PS) and 1,000 Nm (737.6 lb-ft) of torque, propelling a car that weighs less than 1,200 kg (2,646 lbs) dry, comparable to a high-end Miata RF with a retractable hardtop.
