A.L.F.A. 40/60 HP Aerodinamica, 1914, by Castagna. Maybe the world's first concept car was designed by Marco Ricotti of Carrozzeria Castagna based on a 1913 Alfa 40-60 h.p. chassis. It was powered by a 6082cc 4 cylinder engine that produced 70hp at 2200 rpm. Thanks to the aluminium droplet bodywork it could reach a 150 kph (93 mph) top speed. The bodywork was patterned after a dirigible, the engine was accessed through square doors located just behind the front wheels.
