Bovensiepen Brothers Unveil Zagato Coupe at Monterey Car Week
The Bovensiepen brothers have unveiled their latest creation, the Zagato, for the third time this year. Following its world premiere at Fuorio Concorso in May and an appearance at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in July, the car has now been showcased at Monterey Car Week.
The Zagato is a carbon-bodied coupe built on the BMW M4 Convertible platform, marking a continuation of the Bovensiepen family's tradition under a new name. It measures nearly five meters in length, making it five centimeters longer than a BMW M8 Coupe. The car's design features a distinctive double-bubble carbon roof that flows into the rear glass, made possible by using the M4 Convertible as the base.
The Zagato requires over 250 hours of hand assembly, with annual production capped in the low hundreds. More than 400 new parts have been developed for the car, resulting in a weight reduction of about 110 pounds compared to the donor M4 Convertible. The car uses BMW's S58 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six engine, tuned to produce 611 hp and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft), with a 0-100 km/h time of 3.3 seconds and a top speed above 300 km/h (186 mph).
The interior features Lavalina leather covering nearly every surface, with customers able to choose from 16 leather shades, 45 Alcantara options, or commission fully bespoke designs. Pricing for the Bovensiepen Zagato is expected to fall between €400,000 and €500,000, with the first customer deliveries planned for mid-2026. The first delivery is expected to take place in Munich.
The Bovensiepen Zagato is a unique and powerful car, combining the craftsmanship of the Bovensiepen brothers with the performance of BMW's S58 engine. With its distinctive design and high price tag, it is set to be a highly sought-after vehicle among collectors and enthusiasts alike.
