An entire product which embodies craftsmanship and high-technology, combining love and luxury for engines using a modern method of design.

The project was started at the conclusion of 2009, when Pininfarina S.p.A. drew up with De Tomaso Automobili SpA (once Innovation Auto-industry S.p.A. - IAI) an organization chaired by Gian Mario Rossignolo, the certain agreement for the selling of a division of the business that contained the manufacturer of Grugliasco (Turin). Both organizations also agreed the initial version to be created by the reborn De Tomaso business could be designed by Pininfarina.

Luxury isn't a coincidence: the evolution of the De Tomaso Deauville relies upon using the notion of quality products which are "Made in Italy", reviving and refining within the present the features of elegance and craftsmanship which are inherent within the Italian making tradition. All the vehicles are "custom built" and the assembly of the facts is assured from the manual abilities of De Tomaso professional craftsmen. Each De Tomaso Deauville is so distinctive and selfsufficient.

However, the extravagance is not just embodied within the artisan building. As well as the Pininfarina design, the auto also has a higher technological content that places it ahead of its time. The De Tomaso Deauville is made utilizing the advanced UNIVIS technology, meaning the body-shell is assembled using aluminum extruded sections joined together by cross-beams which are trimmed by laser, pressed and welded.

The Pininfarina group tackled the layout of the De Tomaso Deauville by first conducting a historical evaluation of the De Tomaso brand, and focusing in the stylistic elements which have characterised earlier versions like the Mangusta or the Pantera. The task was supposed to picture a totally new kind of vehicle without distorting this kind of important tradition, but also to steadfastly prevent making it an exercise in nostalgia.

The end result is a car that does not have any equivalent in today's car market. A sporty, alluring saloon of a significant dimension (height 1630 mm, span 5080 mm, width 1950 mm), with clean, refined lines, a decisive and instantly recognisable character plus a sporty feel that's reflected to the motorist as a nice driving experience, while promising performance, security, roominess, optimum comfort and every one of of the alternatives you might expect on a luxurious saloon.

The hexagon, which harks back to motifs beloved to De Tomaso background, is repeated in the face of the vehicle (air exit, front wing and contour of windows) and within the layout of the rear light clusters. Another leitmotif runs through the automobile: the three top wings of the grille, that are reiterated within the direction indicator in the front headlight and keep within the light as well as the side repeater.
