Colette and Aston Martin collaborate to release the compact yet sporty Cygnet city car. The Colette X Aston Martin Cygnet City Car, Automotive Fashion For City Living. The exterior of the car has a brilliantly silver body with a Colette blue paint job along parts of the car (see picture).
The interior of the car comes with a suave bitter chocolate coloring that was inspired by Colette’s Labrador, Oscar. It also features diamond turned road wheels as well as a race collection front bumper. The car will be available for a retail price of around 48,000 euros. Here’s a closer look at the new “consumer offering” of Aston Martin (given that Aston Martin will only be making 14 models initially).
The interior of this compact size car has stainless steel hand formed door latches on the inner door panels. The “Cygnet & Colette” brand boot badging that is hand enameled by Thomas Fattorini and the quilted Alcantara Sun Visors all compliment the beautifully quilted leather doors and seat inserts. The back seats are quilted blue leather occasional cushions and the “Cygnet & Colette” brand logo that appears on the satellite navigation start up. An original “Cygnet and Colette” key ring that is that is made from solid aluminum and blue enameling also comes along with the car.
Marek Reichman, The creative director for Aston Martin said that it was only perfect sense that Aston Martin and Colette collaborated on a car since they managed to blend modernity and innovation with the Cygnet car. It only made sense that the two companies made this piece of automotive fashion for city living.
More than the functionality of the car, Aston Martin and Colette both focused more on the external design of the car and therefore took initiative towards the colors, materials and styling of the car.
