Mole Lucrezia
The Mole Lucrezia Concept Car by Umberto Palermo.
Vehicle Overview
The Mole Lucrezia was a concept vehicle presented in 2015 by Mole Costruzione Artigianale, the design and coachbuilding division of UP Design, under the direction of Umberto Palermo. It was introduced at the Parco Valentino Motor Show in Turin as a one-off prototype intended to demonstrate the firm’s capabilities in the production of bespoke, high-performance automobiles. The vehicle did not enter series production, though limited-volume manufacturing was publicly proposed. The vehicle was conceived as a four-seat grand touring coupe with a mid-engine configuration. The powertrain was reportedly to be based on a naturally aspirated V8 engine, though no technical specifications were officially released. The concept remained a static prototype, and no performance figures were published. Chassis construction was described as incorporating aluminium and composite materials, but no underlying donor platform was disclosed. The drivetrain, suspension layout, and braking system were not made available in technical literature. The exterior design featured a long hood, sculpted flanks, and a fastback rear section. The bodywork was executed with frameless windows, reduced overhangs, and minimal external ornamentation. The design was developed in-house by UP Design, led by Umberto Palermo, and reflected stylistic themes previously introduced in earlier UP Design show cars, including the Vittoria (2011) and Luce (2014) concepts. The body was constructed by Mole Costruzione Artigianale in Rivoli, near Turin. Only one example of the Mole Lucrezia was constructed. No chassis or engine number was made public. The vehicle remained within the possession of the manufacturer and was used for promotional purposes. No examples were delivered to private clients, and there is no evidence of follow-up production. The Mole Lucrezia was intended to mark the transition of Mole Costruzione Artigianale from experimental design studies toward low-volume vehicle production. While the concept did not proceed to manufacturing, it remains representative of early 21st-century Italian efforts to re-establish coachbuilding and boutique supercar construction through artisanal means. Its design language, presentation context, and stated production goals align it with the revivalist movement in contemporary Italian carrozzeria practice.
