After \u00ab Euforia<\/a> \u00bband \u00ab Brado Coastline<\/a> \u00bb, a new Totem GT Super has just hit the road. Named \u00abDesideria,\u00bb this custom-built car chose a particularly fitting setting for one of its first public appearances: the 2026 Tutto Bene Hillclimb. Held on September 9, this Italian event brings together classic cars, restomods, race cars, and supercars under a simple rule: no stopwatches, just cars built to drive. And on the nine-kilometer stretch of the Mottarone road, with nearly 800 meters of elevation gain, the new GT Super certainly didn\u2019t sit still.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A \u00abDesideria\u00bb in all shades of green and bronze<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Like every GT Super from the customization program of Totem Automobili<\/a>, \u00abDesideria\u00bb has its own distinct identity. The images reveal a particularly elegant design, featuring a metallic green body whose hues shift dramatically with the light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The silhouette remains instantly recognizable. Totem draws on the proportions of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT designed by Bertone in the 1960s, but radically transforms them with a modern carbon-fiber body and structure. The widely flared fenders, the four circular headlights, and the triangular grille evoke Alfa Romeo without attempting to faithfully replicate an old Giulia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abDesideria\u00bb pairs its green paint with bronze-accented wheels. At the rear, the tiny round taillights with their ring-shaped light signatures frame a particularly sleek rear end, while the two exhaust tips serve as a reminder that this GT is anything but a mere show car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A spectacular interior<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The interior stands in stark contrast to the exterior. Totem has chosen an interior in cognac and orange tones, paired with dark accents and numerous bronze-colored metal trim pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The circular instrument cluster, the almost sculptural air vents, and the three-spoke perforated steering wheel evoke the atmosphere of the 1960s. But the detail that immediately catches the eye is the six-speed manual transmission shifter, mounted on a spectacular metal grille and topped with a transparent shift knob with green accents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the least noticeable details have been carefully crafted: machined controls, surface patterns, topstitching, and exposed mechanical components. This approach was already seen in previous GT Super models, but with a combination of materials and colors unique to \u00abDesideria.\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Behind the 1960s-style design, 640 HP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Beneath this retro bodywork lies the same powertrain already used in the latest Super GT models. The \u00abGloria\u00bb engine, developed with Italtecnica, is a 2.8-liter twin-turbo V6 that delivers 640 HP and 655 Nm. All that power is sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its carbon-fiber monocoque and a weight of approximately 1,180 kg, the GT Super can accelerate from 0 to 100 km\/h in 3.2 seconds. It offers the performance of a modern supercar in a vehicle whose design seems to span more than sixty years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tutto Bene Hillclimb was therefore probably one of the best places to showcase \u00abDesideria.\u00bb Whereas a traditional competition would have left it stationary on a lawn, Totem chose instead to have it climb up toward Mottarone. A rather compelling way to hand over a 640 ch car to its owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
