After twenty years of silence, De Tomaso returned at Goodwood, unveiling the P72 in a crescendo of reverence. This was more than a car, it was a tribute, its lines echoing the P70’s grace, its spirit ignited with modern mastery. Jowyn Wong designed the P72’s carbon-fiber chassis and flowing form unite nostalgia and innovation in perfect harmony. Sweeping arches, a low-slung cockpit, and wind-carved curves give it a presence both timeless and bold. Inside, it shuns the noise of the digital age, embracing analogue purity—stirring memories of a first drive, a childhood thrill, a fleeting rush of yesteryear.
The P70 by Peter was a beautiful machine of its time—a raw, expressive shape that captured the spirit of racing and design purity in the 1960s. The P72 is my interpretation of that spirit. I designed the P72 in the way of a musician, by feeling the mood, the tempo, the soul. I designed it to be elegant, cinematic, and unapologetically romantic. Every curve was tuned like a frequency. Every surface is designed to echo something more profound than the eye can see.
Jowyn Wong — P72 Designer
“It wasn’t about making a car, it was about the awakening of an experience I wanted to give. A silhouette that could stop time. A presence that lingers in your memory long after it’s gone. That’s how I conceive design. It has to move you before it even moves at all. The P72 are my emotions manifested in form.”
Our mission was clear: to bridge generations, crafting a treasure for tomorrow’s collectors and yesterday’s custodians. A tribute to Alejandro’s enduring spirit. A crown for Peter Brock’s vision. A promise that De Tomaso’s pulse will echo through time. The journey has only just begun.
